[@Adex767]

Agents are some of the coolest fucking villains ever written and filmed. Everything from the unsettling cadence, the impossibly perfect suits and earpieces, their overwhelming power gives them a screen presence that few other antagonists have managed to rival. Even the non-Smith Agents are such a force to be reckoned with.

[@maxmercurythemm827]

Half of the agents' swagger comes from the knowledge of their own power. Only Neo is able to throw them for a loop, so it's no wonder that their self-confidence is absolute. They are, programs. 1s and 0s. Swagger variable set to 1, fear to 0. Proceed with ass-kicking. Simplicity, efficiency, and power. Impeccably managed by the script writers and portrayed by the actors. That's why they stick out compared to other villains, I suppose.

Hilarious how Neo twisted their arms up to whack em both repeatedly. Love it. For those who don't know. Agent Brown isn't just starring in Reloaded for the first appearance...he is from the first movie and in the scene where Smith dies, he ran off along side the other. What I can't be sure of is if Thompson was in the first movie aswell...I really don't think he was. I know Johnson was new to replace Smith as the new lead Agent.

[@andrewrader4408]

One of the best things about the matrix movies is the fighting styles of all the characters. Agents strike with raw power and tenacity, straight punches and kicks and don’t really tend to do anything creative. While humans like neo and Morpheus do crazy stuff like in this scene, flipping over the agent to kick the other, jumping in the air landing kicks, etc etc. Details like these you don’t see enough of in action movies anymore and is what makes these movies so great

[@thomasraines1396]

Interesting.

[@master-of-mind5881]

This fight scene is brilliant because it’s comicbook inspired. Neo acting like Spider-Man; fluid, agile, dynamic in movement and nonchalant in expression just subtly disposing of these agents who are like pests. The cinematography and editing are executed to sublime effect. The perfect combination of technical craftsmanship meets artistic value. The agents are robust, logical, astute whilst Neo is liberated because his ascension into an anomaly has enabled him to break the rules and free his mind hence how he defeats the agents with ease. They are still dependent on the system that created them whilst Neo has overcome his basic programming and evolved into an omega being. Visually and creatively this scene is so metaphorical it’s mind blowing. Everything clicks, the choice of soundtrack coupled with the set design, art design, costume, lighting, filters give it that neo-noir feel. By far my favourite fight scene in the entire series.

Much like what developers do when a bug is found most likely the architect patched the matrix to prevent Neo from deleting agents again. Or at the very least introduced upgrades to existing agents to prevent this from happening.

[@jessiehogue.]

To be fair, Agents are not the most powerful creatures in the Matrix. They are still bound by the limitations of the system because they are created to perform within its parameters and be dependent of it. Very talented hackers can potentially surpass them, and rogue programs and viruses - the latter two still existing within the system despite breaking its rules - are more than capable of exceeding their capabilities, because such limits do not 'technically' apply to them. Just look at Seraph, for example. That being said, Agents are, indeed, the single greatest threat to the Resistance, since said rogue programs and viruses are usually more interested in doing their thing rather than mess with the system, with the exception of Smith, of course.

[@laveenr]

@ true how come still machines didn't find the survivors location and kill all of them, to the machines humans are like animals even when they are out of the zoo humans are being watched and studied, they simply want to make humans believe they have hope and they want to take the sample of Love, being said all that the humans are still bound to machines whether they are plugged in or they are out it's all the same.

The fact the oscillation caused by Neo flying goes up the wall and then reflects back is (chef kiss). It shows whoever designed that effect understood more than just CGI software but also material properties - it WOULD reflect off the roof if the building were mildly elastic, since the energy cannot just vanish. It's a subtle thing but it shows the production team had such attention to detail, it sells how Neo is literally altering the laws of physics whenever he's using his "powers".

I'll never understand why this film gets so much hate. I remember watching this and many scenes on repeat when it came out on DVD.

[@TactileTherapy]

[@robbifidelino4654]

Honestly? Two things. 1. Pacing: - the pacing is all over the place. The film often jumps between a 10 minute or so philosophical exchange to a 20 minute chase scene, or a lengthy fight sequence. It can be quite entertaining at times, if not also jarring/exhausting (upon multiple viewings). 2. Structure & storytelling: - It has a difficult time melding the “show and tell” mindset, either doing an over abundance of showing OR telling. Some parts feel draggy and overlong, as if to say; “keep looking at how much stuff we can show/tell you about our movie’s themes and ideas.” etc Verdict: - It’s ambitious and has entertaining scenes all throughout = but add them all together and at times it can feel “excessive and prolonged”. Almost like an early draft of a movie that you’re meant to simplify, but never got to edit. Alas, Just my 2 cents

[@m0z4rt427]

@@robbifidelino4654 1. i've never seen anyone complaining about anything like pacing. Maybe people had higher standards of cinema back then in 2000, but thats just a silly excuse to throw hate. We get it the first movie was great but reloaded adds more action. Thats not weird pacing, its action. And the dialogue scenes arent that long. 2. This one i can partially agree with. Some scenes were unecessary (or unecessarly longer than needed, like the fight scene with seraph ie). But then again you have to admit some of the best most iconic scenes of the trilogy came from reloaded. The highway chase, chateau fight, the architecht revealing something far more disturbing than the matrix itself. That and the amazing soundtrack pairing. 3. Had this movie come out today people would go nuts. At least for a sequel, Reloaded kinda stands pretty well on its own, unlike the abysmal amount of sequels/reboots/remakes/spin offs we are getting these days

Yeah, i really would have enjoyed a harder fight keeping agents still a menacing threat, especially three of them. Neo can still be very superior, but the machine threat should still be a permanent force of danger. I also believe the appearance of Smith so early, encountering his copy, was way too soon too, and imho, unneccesary. The earpiece delivery should have been done by some unknown 'messenger' too. It would have been more powerful if Smith did appear as an actual 'surprise', well, atleast to us. I love the movies, and i understand that the Wachowski's were relatively 'inexperienced' still, but there was so much potential lost. At some points, it looked like a parody, made to please extreme nerds and fans's fantasies, instead of going in deep. Matrix '1' was so legendary that it had big shoes to fill, and i can only say it felt lacking in a bunch of areas. Still, i love the movies and i am excited for a return of the franchise.

To give an alternate view on this fight which largely appears physical, we have to think of it in terms of programs and rulesets. Even though The Matrix tries to simulate physics as best it can, this is still an awakened "program-Neo" (with source code) vs upgraded "program-agents". Neo's program overpowers the agents' program, not by "killing" them, but by disabling them. Notice how each agent immediately gets taken out by a powerful kick. This could be explained as a complex, limitless program with no rules launching a massive attack on a lesser entity with simpler code and fixed rulesets. The result is the agent program being overwhelmed, and subsequently getting disabled.

[@master-of-mind5881]

This fight scene is brilliant because it’s comicbook inspired. Neo acting like Spider-Man; fluid, agile, dynamic in movement and nonchalant in expression just subtly disposing of these agents who are like pests. The cinematography and editing are executed to sublime effect. The perfect combination of technical craftsmanship meets artistic value. The agents are robust, logical, astute whilst Neo is liberated because his ascension into an anomaly has enabled him to break the rules and free his mind hence how he defeats the agents with ease. They are still dependent on the system that created them whilst Neo has overcome his basic programming and evolved into an omega being. Visually and creatively this scene is so metaphorical it’s mind blowing. Everything clicks, the choice of soundtrack coupled with the set design, art design, costume, lighting, filters give it that neo-noir feel. By far my favourite fight scene in the entire series.
