Personally, I thoroughly enjoyed watching Reloaded, however, it should be noted that, as a lot of others have stated here, that you need to watch the original (might be a good idea to watch it immediately before seeing Reloaded), and also what I think a lot of commenters here have overlooked, it wouldn't be a bad idea to watch the Second Renaissance Pts. 1 and 2 of the Animatrix .(Both were written by the Wachowski's, both have EXCELLENT animation, and both shed a lot of light to the world of the Matrix before the original.
Anyway, I thought the movie in the larger sense was very true to form, however, I was a little disheartened by the fact that they kinda "sold out" to corporate sponsorship. I mean, come on, all Cadillac's? Good guys in white, bad guys in black? Can't we figure it out for ourselves? I want to know what happened to that 60's-70's jet black Lincoln with the suicide doors. That was just plain cool, not because it was the newest thing out there, but because it has character, which gave the movie a little character.
All told, something that I definitely have to see again to fully appreciate/understand, and I'm sure it will be a fun experience.
