I'm not talking about a 2 minute fight in the hallway. I'm talking about the entire movie from start to finish. They took from The Matrix's plot, their wardrobe, their shooting scenes. The whole movie was like a Matrix ripoff. I noticed less than 5 minutes in to the film.
When I say it's over-rated, I'm refering to it being over-rated on this website. (By people much like yourselves who seem to overlook the fact that it's nothing more than a pretty good sci-fi/action film with a totally borrowed plot.)
And by the way, I didn't think there was anything wrong with the acting in The Matrix. (At least not the first one.) I'm not saying I thought one film had better acting than the other. They were both well acted.

woah ... have you read either Farenheight 451, Brave New World, or 1984 ?
i'm thinking no or you wouldnt have mentioned the plot thing.
the plot behind the matrix was more like The Island.
an artificial existance needed to sustain life to provide power/spare parts to others (be it machine or person)
Equilibrium was a out losing the right of freedom to feel.
a whole different ballgame - nothing whatsoever like plot of The Matrix.
if you mean 'the hope of the world resting on one mans shoulders' then you could add about 2000 movies to that list - before and after the matrix
