As much as I hate to agree with J0n, this review is pretty spot-on. I
went to see it this afternoon, and didn't think much of it except for
the EFX, the fight scenes with Neo and Morpheus & Neo & Smith, and maybe
the gunfights. The ending was really weak, though. 

Anyone notice one pretty big similarity between this and the other big
Sci-fi event of the summer? The plots of both revolve around someone
being the "chosen one".
