movie review - The Matrix Reloaded

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Kokubunji, 2020.12.13

I tried showing my kids this flick for "movie night". We did not make it through it. The kids were put off by the tone and the sexual charge and the story didn't engage them. I'll chalk this up to my mistake. I never loved this one and simply didn't remember it well enough. The kids liked "The Matrix" well enough and yeah. My mistake.

Not recommended. Particularly for 8-12 year olds.
