The Matrix Reloaded (2003)
The Matrix In General
A few years ago when the Matrix first came it, it was full of original ideas. When it comes to sequels though, they are generally meant for one thing, making more money. In the case of Reloaded though, it decides to focus on the action at the cost of storyline. In the first one the story is set up, and in this one, it continues, which is what the sequel is all about. Starting off with an amazing shootout to the very questioning cliffhanger (i particualy enjoyed that) this film is defenatly the best film that i have seen all year. A lot of people were expecting some sort of revelation of this film which i think is unrealistic, as a movie is only to entertain you for its lenght, something that this film does very spectacularly! The only two things that i didnt think fit in there was the 'get your groove on' at the temple and also the score in a few places (it just didnt fit in the scenes as it should have). All in all though, this film is great, and i suggest you see it with the mindset of just having a good time, its really worth it!
9/10
The Extreme Adventures of Super Dave (2000)
More of a childrens movie
I watched this film with a few kids and they really enjoyed the slapstick comedy of it all. The movie does start out with a blast but then seems to lose focus after the first 15 minutes. This really had some potential it just failed to seize the initiative. All in all though its not that bad of a film.
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (2002)
A Disapointment
*** Contains some spoilers***
When making a film about children, its best to let children act the parts, and in the first Harry Potter film, the child actors were perfect for their roles. Unfortunatly the producers waited a little too long before making the second one and so all of the kids now look and sound a lot older than the characters they are suppose to be playing and most of them now suck at their roles anyways. While i think that the adult actors filled their roles well, the new characters have almost NO development besides a slightly brooding musical tone when they appear. Another point against it is that script was very cheesy you cant get a grip on whats really happening until the end when everything is explained in a good minute! It would have been a lot better if there was more subelty to this film instead of the blantent actions of the characters. I will say that the special effects are quite good but cannot save it. So all in all this movie is a one shot deal and i dont suggest seeing it anymore after that
a lowly 3/10
