| This brilliant thought provoking
documentary looks into why the U.S. has its gun culture and thus
high levels violent crime. It also investigates some shootings
they have in high schools. It looks at the National Rifle
Association and its history. Is it just coincidence the NRA
was founded the same year the KKK was made illegal? This is definitely
a documentary everyone should see at least once.

| This
is second part of the Matrix trilogy. The first film, the
Matrix, is truly amazing and features in my top twenty films
list. Matrix Reloaded lacks some of the style and darkness of
the first film. Some of the action scenes were so unbelievable
it spoiled my enjoyment of the film. Overall it is still a
very good film with a brilliant plot. special effects and action
scenes, it is just not a good as the first film, which was a true
masterpiece.
