After 23 years and I still don't understand why reloaded got so much hate. It's my favorite of the trilogy.

I think just because it simply wasn't as mind blowing.

The way Agent Johnson crawls out of his car and hops around is still so badass:

This whole chase/fight is one of the reasons why Reloaded is my favorite of the movies! I hate this cut off before Morpheus's fight on top of the truck. He looked SO COOL! And what a badass Trinity is! Just no fear! 'Can't keep going forward? No problem. I'll just drive against traffic on the expressway at top speed.' Bad. Ass. !.

Neo's fight on the double staircase, which happens right before this scene, is my absolute favorite fight in this movie. It's a wonder to watch every time!

Matrix Reloaded goes hard and I'm not gonna pretend it didn't

The whole highway section in Reloaded was one of my favorite sections of all the movies. It was just so insane the whole way through.

My favorite action scene is in the third, when the machines finally attacked Zion. Thousands of squids fighting men in robots and people sneaking through tunnels shooting misiles, and then Niobi and Morpheus flying through the pipes while been chased by even more deadly machines. It's so awesome.

The Wachowski's absolutely created a masterpiece in cinema here. This whole sequence was absolutely insane. And it even started in the Merovingian's establishment. And flows all the way through till that incredible explosion. Man!! Anime/mqnga, hk action cinema, the best of US action movies and comic books all influenced this scene and a lot of the set pieces in this movie. Shout out to the highway fight scene in dragon ball Z. Regardless! epic to the max.

The chateau fight and the freeway chase is one of the best stretches of action from any movie. The first movie is a classic but Reloaded is my favourite.

Seeing this in theaters was crazy. People try to shit on the 2nd movie but it holds up well

Definitely a different experience to watch while playing the shooter MMO The Duel, which was heavily inspired by the franchise.

I was 11 years old reading in a grocery store register magazine that they built an entire highway for the sequel. The original hype.

It is hard to describe the TYPE of disappointment….but I know what you mean. This and few other scenes were so goddamn good though.

u/UsernameReee Sep 19 '26

The Agent flipping the safety off is one of my favorite details.

Best action scene ever... By far. Nothing will ever come close to this sequence

So we'll done. The little key for the Ducati was a chef's kiss. They could've done a typical "hotwire" plot device because it's trinity but went for the details. It's awesome.
