The Matrix Reloaded was one of the worst movies I have ever seen in my life (although not THE worst). It needed very little in the way of spoofing this to make fun of it. But this short spoof did an excellent job, making fun of the three most ridiculous scenes of the entire film (the rave at Zion, The Fight with the X,000 Smith's and the scene with The Architect).
The Zion scene was ridiculous to begin with, a 10 minute long scene of a rave that bordered on an orgy. This takes it a step further and makes it just that. The scene with the Smith's was ridiculously long, repetitive and ended on a whim. This mocks the scene, and funnily so, but it doesn't mock the correct parts of it (although that might just be because it was so utterly ridiculous to begin with). Then the scene with The Architect, that was the most hilarious part, and the best use of archived footage in the entire spoof.
This is more consistently funny than, say, the Jack Black: Spider-Man spoof, although it never quite becomes as hilarious. The footage they use of Keeanu Reeves was brilliant. They connected the spoofing scenes together well with whatever that Hallway in the movie was. Overall, it was a memorable and worthy mocking short.
