Who else remembers rewinding this scene a million times as a kid
I'm watching it a million times as an adult
Anyone else remember watching this scene on CZcams, reading my comment, and telling me to fuck off?
I'm still rewinding it now
Me, the matrix fight scenes are similar to the feeling you get while playing those story video games where u have to kill all the enemies alone. That s why i love this scene so much
Im doing that right now xd
A cool opinion i have on the cgi : The cgi getting progressively worse throughout the fight on purpose because the matrix is overloading and cant fully render the overwhelming amount of agent smiths
This is the best comment on this video
Good point
Was wondering why some bits looked like it was from a PS3 game.
Haha what a bullshit explanation
@@joshTHX not really the CGI only gets bad the longer and the more agent smiths there are. y wasnt the CGI like that at the beginning
What makes this scene even better is the wonky CGI actually works for the story: they’re just moving so fast towards the end, the Matrix doesn’t have time to render properly. I love that.
The Matrix has to turn down the graphics, there are simply too many Smiths in one place!
That's a very interesting theroy. The cgi is pretty damn janky, even when it released in 2003 you could see the exact transitions but I like your take on it.
...whatever helps ya sleep easier.😅
Clever way of covering up for shitty looking graphics.
@@djaccountisbfisbx3880 Just like trying to run Crysis at max settings.
No matter what anyone says, the choreography and cinematography of this scene was just awesome.
glad to see im not the only one who still goes back and watches these
For its time it certainly was. Now the CGI seems dated.
@@justinnelson6794 ..
I think from all first three films were really good , but that last one we can all agree it was just a brainless failure of a film tbh

Neo: The 0.1% Bacteria
Smith: The Hand Sanitizer
🤣🤣underrated comment
Actually tho😂
*virus
Except smith is now a virus in this scene.
😂😂
I love how they just disperse after Neo flies away like "welp, guess we're done here. See you guys next time."
😂😂😂😂😂 me too
"Hey I think I'm going to make myself that Latte Coffee-"
"Stop talking that's the barrista we just assimilated talking"
"Right, sorry."
Forreal. Like if you forgot they were actually programs...
Yea I mean... Why he even bothered fighting if he could just fly away...
Oh uh yeah gotta go pick Johnny up from soccer I guess ...
This scene was revolutionary at that time. The fight is uninterrupted, with bullet time, and with almost surrealistic camera angles. For me, the most creative part of the trilogy!
You're a fine connoisseur. It's like you've watched this scene a thousand times.
It's not aging quite as well as the more iconic fights of the first movie sadly. Despite the fact almost all the Smiths are not CGI outside of the most crazy moments ( they're using a lot of masks ), but the scenes made by computer are looking quite plastic nowadays, and lack impact.
Jesus Christ is the only way to salvation. Remember that.
@@dayseven28 Neo is the One
@@petrospetromixos6962 Neo is a fictional character. Jesus Christ is God in the flesh and our only hope in this fallen world.
Man, Hugo Weaving really went all out for this role. The man even went as far as to clone himself multiple times just to make this scene!
I wish he’d turned me into one of his clones
Boromir: "One does not simply walk into Mordor."
Elrond: "After I clone myself a few thousand times, you better believe we'll simply walk right in there."
Everyone shrugs this one off because of the CGI, forgetting that the first half of this fight wasn’t CGI and there really were 20 people dressed like smith in a choreographed fight scene that nailed it
Edit: I don't dislike the CGI either I think it works in most places apart from maybe the slo mo bits
Giga Atom I think it’s dope , makes it look like a video game
Funnily enough, if you catch some of the extras/stunt doubles, they look laughably nothing like Hugo Weaving/Agent Smith.
Even it it all was CGI it would still be awesome just putting such a scene together.
The absolute best part was when Neo got the pole....
Black is such an awesome powerful color!
I love the sound effects when multiple agent Smiths are getting knocked over.
2:51 - Dominos getting knocked down
3:27 - Bowling pins getting knocked down.
Yea, how stupid :)
The bowling pin sound cracked me up every time I watched that scene ever since seeing it for the first time at the movies.
I love the fact that, being he Tho One and being inside Matrix, Neo could have been actually creating those sounds
@@thetest4514 not stupid; genius
@@sidolanters1394 yes genious just like you.
*20 years ago already and still one of the best action/fight scene ever.*
Именно так. А сейчас даже с графикой и искусственным интеллектом получается фигня.
@@user-mb8to4ke4y I think it's because they rely too much on that too much nowadays. Back then all the cool stuff was being invented, so they were acting and assisting stuff with AI and graphics. and now we mainly work backwards where its focused on using AI and graphics to make things seem cooler, and then adding the human element.
Anyone 2024?
absolutely 😋
MR ANDERSON!
Not enough people are talking about the music. The score is fire
THIS, THIS RIGHT HERE GODDAMMIT!! Don Davis doesn't get any love for this at all? (Or Juno Reactor which collaborated with him for this track). C'mon film score enthusiasts, speak the hell up!!!
Oh yeah, for sure.
Finaly a man of duty and respect
Yeah it's fucking cool
Don Davis score is iconic.
3:26 These mad lads actually used the bowling ball sound effect
xD
2:51 they have a domino sound effect
@@nolansaylor7710
I was wondering what that sound was hahaha
Thanks :D
Haha I always thought I was trippin.
Yep, the only dumb thing in the scene.
1:18 I love the look on the other Smiths' faces after the one gets absolutely wrecked by the cement, like they're all thinking "Damn! That looked painful! I hope that doesn't happen to me!"
At 3:27 The Architect was like "Should I add a funny bowling pin sound effect there? Pff, fuck it, why not?"
"Ergo, concordantly, vis a vis...eh, what the hell."
“The bodies he buried that day laid the foundation of what we are now...”
underrated comment.
“He killed three agents with a pencil, a fucken pencil”
I understood that reference.
Wrong Movie but good statement.
@@snowflake9171 the whole joke revolves around it being the wrong movie but the right actor......
3:36 I love how they all stand there like, “So can any of you guys fly? No? Okay then.”
The real reason Oracle got copies over, so one that fights Neo one on one in the tired film could fight him in the air. XD
The oracle copy can fly, he did in the last movie.
Watch the Smiths in the final seconds of the scene. They are studying Neo flying away. By the time of The Matrix Resurrections, the Smiths had mastered flight for themselves.
I feel like this scene also highlights the smith's realizing that numbers seem to be able to overpower neo, which in revolutions returns with Smith having turned what seems to be everyone in the matrix into a Smith
Is Keanu Cat A Priest or Monk or something ?
I remember seeing this in the theatre. When it ended the theatre was silent. Everyone was stunned. Still the greatest movie fight ever.
When I saw it the audience laughed at the Smiths standing there after Neo flew away, after they got their asses whooped for like 10 minutes!😂😂😂
1:44 never fails to put a smile on my face
That coat man !!!!! Smooth asf
0:25 sanyikun vs Zsolt Vrg
3:25 I like when neo knocks loads of agent Smith down at once someone decided to add a bowling ball sound effect to it
It's the subtle jokes that makes it even more funnier
The sounds from the sign pole he used were great too.
This is because the system doesn't provide sound for such a situation.
yes me too😀😀😀😀😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
A bit like the clunk of the stormtroopers helmet 😂
Morpheus: "No one has *ever* stood their ground against an agent and survived"
Neo:
Pff, lucky Neo. He just did it, because Smith was no agent anymore.
@@doofkos SMith was the strongest agent and he is even stronger now that he is a virus :P
@@doofkos Naw dude, have you seen the movies? The reason Neo can beat Smith like this is because he's the One.
@@MattII33 Trinity killed an agent with her 'Dogde this' before Neo make it looks easy.
@@Awelbeckk well she killed the host of the agent not actual agent
0:54 - 1:01 even as a kid I always love that 5 hit kick combo.
I don't know why its so funny seeing 100 Hugo Weaving on screen together whether they're fighting, making a dog pile or running out of a door. It just cracks me up. Hugo Weaving is an absolute legend.
I dont care about how aparent the cgi is, this scene is epic and has aged like wine
Agreed
the CGI has never bothered me because we know that the matrix is a computer system and everything in it is fake so thats what i see the effects and cg as, everything computer generated
Renã Souza cgi isn’t even remotely apparent considering the age
@Renã Souza if you enjoy it too much you become a dangerous driver?
The matrix was so good, i like it not from watching the movie but the trailer.
3:28 I love how that’s not even close to how it would sound when a human body collided with multiple others but the sound team said “We bowling now”
Exactly. Bc Smiths aren’t human
The Matrix probably doesn't know what sounds to make so it just uses place holder sounds.
@@Kyleplaysgames567 I thought it was just a humour from siblings wachowsky or sound director
In a world where Neo can rip poles out of concrete and fly, that sound isn't the most unrealistic thing imaginable.
Same thing at 2:52 it’s the sound of dominos
The slow motion shots are so beautifully done. This movie was way ahead of it's time.
Still one of, if not, the best fight sequences in action movie history. The choreography is out of this world.
Reloaded was on it's way to being the best movie of all time, but the second half of the movie ruined it because it was just average at best.
1 tomato was killed during the filming of this scene.
and half of women if not all women across the world got infected because Smith had too much fun sticking his fingers into women's chests
@@agentsmithlikestofingerwom7115 wtf is up with you and women's chests
@@rolandotorres1682 My guess is he loves boobs, a bit too much, and he likes transformation fetish or smth and the fsxr Smith transforms peeps to clones by fingering chests n boob and the fact that women arent safe from this probably led to his new wacko obsession 🙄
@@justice_1337 thats a waste of money, its probably a real tomato.
35 cents please.
1:22 As a kid, this was the greatest moment I've seen in any action film. I was already baffled by the amount of agents that kept spawning. Then Neo picks up a pole and uses it as a bo staff. It honestly made me want to get into martial arts as a kid. Even now, this scene is still so great.
They were pretty much all hand-to-hand in the first one, so it was really cool to see them branch out into weapons in this one - Neo with the pole, Morpheus with the sword on top of the semi, Neo's fight with all of those older version Matrix guys.
I like how they don't explain that it was Smith assimilating the Agent that allowed him to assimilate so many other people so fast.
This movie definitely was inspired by Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon)
The only issue I have with this fight is the cement pole attack should have jettisoned that Smith through a building, not over a railing.
when i saw it (kid) i was upset, its looked so much like a cartoon, this is worse cgi ever. even now they use this kind of effect "Terminator dark fate, and all avenger" animation body..
This fight scene, especially the 360 kicks on the pole, was the selling point of the trailers for this film…This fight scene is a masterpiece
I love the legion management here. At first Neo knew he was better the horde so he mostly stays in the middle of them to deal out as much damage to as many Smiths as possible but when he starts getting pummeled by the horde he changes his fighting style to more power focused strikes and starts moving to the edges of the legion to limit how many enemies Neo has to fight at once which makes the fight manageable until there is just far too many for even Neo to handle and he has to book it out of there. This was such a brilliant story told through a fight and you just don't see that anymore.
After Neo flies off, Smith looks at his copies like, "didn't know he could do that"..."did you know he could do that"?
Copies: "I didn't know he could do that either"
I'm sure he also asked if there was anyone there who could 😁
@@whitehairvillain36 that's what i thought
Understandable, have a good day
I love that the Smith clones are as confused and frustrated by that end to the fight as the rest of us. They're just like "...Well, that's some BS. Aight, Imma get some lunch".
@@briangruessner4453 Can't fight Neo if you don't eat lunch :D
During the non-CGI cuts, I'm really enjoying playing "spot the actual Hugo Weaving"
Where’s Hugo Weaving Waldo?
The thing I really appreciate about that, as well as the hallway fight scene later on, is that the Smith you're drawn to look at in any given frame is always the real Hugo Weaving. They meticulously planned every shot to figure out where people would look and always put him in that spot and the look alikes around him.
@@KorriTimigan There's a few shots where the non-Hugo Weaving doubles are TOO obvious, and they added a CGI head replacement. You'd never notice it if you weren't actively looking for it.
You can see an example in the beginning of the very last shot of the video: the farthest left Smith has a CG head, and the Smith standing in front of the one who's directly in the sun, to our right of the Smith closest to the camera.
@ 0:11 the guy to the right of Hugo when he opens the gate
@@NukeMyHouse the funny thing is, the one in front of the sun-lit one is a dummy). Maybe that was an easter egg from creators. Since this shot has absolutely zero sense to do it via CG, only green screen compositing is needed.
P.S. Also, the ending fight in Revolutions - most of the Smiths are dummies, manequens.
Sorry whatever comment about the CGI this will ever be the best fight scene I ever watched
The propeller pole sequence starting at 1:30 still gives me goose bumps now as an adult. Blew me away as a kid watching the first time. So epic!!!
Искал именно твой комментарий. Аналогично. Холодок по спине, пересматривал раз сто на vhs кассете
3:35 Smith: Someone knows how to fly???
Smith: Nah
Smith: Not me
Smith: Me neither
Smith: I know how to crack my neck.....
Hehe

@Solas O'Dimm well if you have lady friends make sure to tell them to watch out for guys in suits and shades and cover their chests.... or they might just turn into one of those guys
Agent Smith : It is inevitable
Thanos : *write that down*
His voice sounds similar.
There's nothing new in cinema anymore haha
Would've been funny as hell if he licked his ear when he said that 😆
good one
I wanted him to play red skull again
20 yrs later and it's still just as satisfying as the first time I've seen it. They put so much though, effort and heart in this. Choreography, music, camera, dialog it's so fun to watch it come together like that
20 years old scene and still the best fight scene that I've ever seen. And gets better when the pole becomes a Bo staff in the Neo's hand.
A lot of people have offered really solid observations about the CGI in this and several other Reloaded sequences, but the sheer ambition of it is what truly endures. Yeah, it's the very early stages of digital stuntmen, but it's easy to look past it when you realize just how ambitious the Wachowskis were. It would take that kind of technology over a decade to catch up with the scope of their vision in a time where most filmmakers weren't willing or able to get that crazy with their ideas. Now, it's the norm. Back then, it was really something else.
Lol nice try. I still love the scene though.
@@smokeybear5460 what they said is true tho?
Even though CGI doesn't hold up as well, the way is transitions in the same frame from CGI Neo/Smith to real Neo/Smith is a technical achievement.
@@smokeybear5460 He explained it perfectly. The Wachs Brothers ran low on funds so certain scenes had to be "old CGI technology" while other scenes were the "motion capture tech" You can see the difference plain as day (When Neo running on top of the agents, Spinnin with the pole in mid-air is all old CGI tech.) Maybe they should have just cut that part out. But to give credit due, when James Cameron did his blockbuster movie "Avatar" the technology 'Motion capture" had finally caught up. He wrote Avatar at the time he produce the movie," Terminator 2" And if you go back and look at the CGI it was still in its infancy in T2. Motion capture wasn't even feasible yet.
First, the scale. Second - choreography is fantastic. And finally, yeah you can see its cgi... lets see what new 2021 Matrix brings to the table! Oh, its nothing. Guess Reloaded was fuckfuckintastic, just people couldnt appreciate it back then.
I still love this scene, even now, 20 years later. Even considering the CGI.
Allahu akbar
It makes it trippier
In term of choreography this is one of the best cinema fight scene I have ever seen, close from Jacky Chan ones.
People give the matrix having CGI issues but honestly I love it. At the time CGI was still choppy at times. But this scene is freaking dope. I love all the fight scenes in The matrix
I dunno. I just saw the new Matrix and I think the fight scenes in this series blew those scenes away despite twenty years of advancement.
I used to wonder why Neo didn't just fly away in the first place. Thinking about it now, two things occur to me: 1) He may have wanted to pay his respects, either to Smith as a nemesis or to the fight itself, much like you might stick around for a fight in a game you like, even if you know how to skip it; 2) He may have wanted to assess Smith's capabilities, or his own capabilities in fighting so many opponents at once.
Maybe he was in the mood to open a can of whoopass
or they just wanted to do a cool ass fight scene XD
Or option 3: if you observe the fight closely from the beginning you’d see tht none of the Smiths gave Neo any breathing room or opportunity for him to escape and making him go on the defensive and take the fight head on and once Neo had the pole in hand he finally had the upper hand but while Neo showed more resilience in strength Smith demonstrated he had more manpower at disposal, outnumbering him and forcing him back on the defensive when the fight became 1 vs 100, forcing him to retreat
Neo can obviously and easily give them an energy blast and fly to safety instantly. They can't do anything to hurt him lol
He was having fun.
0:10 the quick frame of Neo holding his fist up realizing more Smiths are entering the park is one of my favorite (and extremely brief) shots in the whole Matrix trilogy.
And then he's like yeah whatever"
Agent: “More...”
2003 pc “damn you I can’t!!!”
2600 PC haha
I think that part is supposed to let us know something about smith....
Settings set to low.
Neo grabbing the pole and ripping it straight up from the concrete to hit a Smith is one of the most badass moments in cinema and gives me chills every time I watch it
Same! I was just telling someone the other day this is one of my favorite scenes. The music score gradually picks up, he smashes one of the Smiths and all the others look down in disbelief and then back at Neo. So good..
Also the soundtrack during that part!
Same. Between the music and the pole, it was a moment I'll remember forever.
The moment after he did that and then started spinning in the air with the pole when the music drops was the most badass thing I've ever seen in a movie
I saw something similar in Bugs Bunny, or was with the small rabbit? 🤔, he cannot release Excalibur so he grabs it with stone and all xD
2:38 My favourite part!
1:41 is mine 🔥🔥🔥🔥
defferently 1:22 just imagine that ironbar.
The first pole hit with the cement bottom is iconic, but I love the quick second one he gets off before he takes flight. 😂
Keanu: So what are your lines in this scene?
Hugo: "More" and "It is inevitable." What about you?
Keanu: None.
Hugo: Should be an easy day
month.... month my friend....
@Ringo Garvin hes pointing out it was actually an entire month of filming instead of day for this scene.
Wait! You forgot...
Mr. Anderson
he said enough
What makes this scene special is, that the army of Smiths are actually attacking together. They aren't going one by one, but try to truly overwhelm Neo, and even manage to hit him a couple of times. Instead of the usual bad guys come one, or two at a time to be take down by a few hit from the hero.
Thank you for spoiling every Bruce Lee fight scene ever
In real life thats what trained people do. They are accomplishing a goal aside from finding out if they can beat the guy.
I used to work security and in training one of the exercises we had to do was break a human chain up.
So we broke into two groups the breakers and the "protestors".
The protestors formed a "chain" and i told my group to split into two groups, about 5 each. We each took one of the chain. And instead of each person trying to pull off one person, the entire group grabbed the person on the end and ripped them away and tossed them back.
We met in the middle. Took us about 4 minutes to break it up.
Then we switched. I had my group circle up around me and squeeze in and link arms and i then just grabbed on to whoever they were trying to pull off and held them fast. Took them twelve minutes to take us apart. Teamwork.
@@metamorphicorder interesting
@Tom your first time was with a lot of Mr Smith clones ? Seems wicked !
@Tom do you not get any
I love the music in this fight. It does a great job at complimenting the fast paced nature of this fight, while also showcasing the urgency of Neo needing to win. Because from the outset Smith laid out what he wanted, and with his ability to convert anyone into another him, this doesn’t become a fight to just beat the bad guy, it becomes a fight just to survive.
i cant stop watching this scene i am literally obsessed
omg like literally like so literally its literally, literally.
Little known fact: Every Hugo Weaving in this scene was paid individually making him the best-paid actor of all time.
Righteous!
Is Keanu Cat A Priest or Monk or something ?
Varsity Football DoggPile 3:09
What about umpa lompas in charlie and the chocolate factory ?
So Hugo got paid 100x for this scene? Doubt it.
Thanos: I am inevitable
Smith: wtf cosmic grape thats my line
Scrotum chin
No its my line
Now I can't stop picturing Thanos fighting 50+ Agent Smiths.
Funny. First Agent smith did it, then skynet did it. And finally thanos. Also I wonder how agent smith from revolutions would be in a fight with thanos
Agent Smith totally used that line firstly than before this alien grape came.
I love how it starts out with an absolutely incredible fight scene and then delves into a PS2 game.
I remember being in the theater watching this and after the sequence was over we all broke out in applause. We were blown away by this at the time lol
Now if I were to watch this scene with my kids, they'd think it was cringy and badly made, unfortunately.
CGI : How Many agents do you want?
Director: YES.
only some parts where the numbers exceed 20. you can see the non cgi stuffs and some of the stunt doubles look nothing like Agent Smith
"MOOOOORE..."
(Fixed that for ya')
@@atigerclaw gay
More...
Love how they added in the "bowling ball knocking over the pins" sound at the end when Neo tosses Smith into the other Smiths. Sure it may seem out of place and bit ridiculous but It's so satisfying and priceless...
this sound adds inappropriate comedy, I consider it a disadvantage.
@@piranias go away
@@piranias Absolutely out of place
@@224BOZ Grow up, dumb shit... It's a completely out of place sound effect.
I see it as a nod to itself ('it' being the concept of the fight, I guess), like the Wachowskis are saying, 'Yeah it's got silly bits in it, and Neo could have flown away long ago, and it doesn't add to the plot - but it's damn cool and people are going to be watching it 20 years later!' Plenty of people love the sequels, flaws included.
2:39-2:44 is always my favorite part of this scene
Same! My brother and I saw it in theaters as teens and audibly went "wawwwwhh!" like amazed children lol.
Satisfying af for sure
Same I love it since I was a kid
I had the joy of seeing this masterpiece in the cinema. I still remember how people went crazy in the cinema with this scene.
This remains, to this day, the best choreographed live action fight ever made. Not just because effects were groundbreaking at the time, or because actors trained and studied with actual kung fu masters for months before shooting, and such - that too. But most of all, this is the only fight that I'm aware of, that actually took time to choreograph the movements of EVERY SINGLE OPPONEN the protagonist is fighting. Nobody is waiting in a line to get punched. Nobody just does nothing or pointlessly misses the main guy by a mile. Every Smith is active, every Smith that comes in contact with Neo tries his best to punch and kick him, and Neo actually has to react every time, or he would be hit. And every Smith that doesn't have a chance to hit him, is angry and dynamic and pushes other Smith's apart just to get a piece of Neo and can't wait for his turn. This is absolutely awesome. Never before, and never again was this much attention and choreography put in a single fight.
Well it's a pity that it's such a rip-off from something that was already done. Search youtube for Xiao Xiao 3, disappointing how it's all just copied
@@floydthebarber71 they filmed this scene in 2001. Xiao Xiao 3 came out in 2002. 😑

Meh, what about the two holding the pipe like a limbo pole or something till neo grabs it again.. 2:09
Yeah, just compare this to the Praetorian Guard bit from TLJ. This fight is already great, but put next to that it’s on another level.
I dont care what anybody thinks about the movie, the part from where he picks up the rod always gives me chills. Its so goddamn good
I lost my shit in theaters when I saw that for the first time.
One handed and absolutely demolishes a Smith with the remnants of concrete. Brutal...

lol yeah facts
To think Neo was getting his ass kicked by only ONE version of this guy before.
after the first movie, he pretty much lost all fights against Smith except the one they fought on the ship in the third movie, but lost his eyes on that fight.
The cool thing though is that he was overwhelmed and you could see it
He needs to stop Smith, he became a virus infecting everything.
@@rgygduysdgyuygsduysd not necessarily on the.ship neo won and defeated 3 upgraded agents in 1 minute. The the final battle neither one. The prophecy was neither can die whilst the other lives. They are the ying and yang trying to balance the equation out so they both died
@@mitchellchapman2954 uh thats the prophecy from Harry Potter
This whole scene is so unbelievably epic.
Man everyone tries to play it cool and say they loved the first film the most and all the sequels were shitty or not as good as the original, first movie was great, but reloaded was always my favorite as far as having fun and enjoying all the various action scenes, expanding the matrix lore, but not having to get as technical and decisive as part three had to being the conclusion at the time. This was literally the point where we all were thinking any and everything was possible after the great first movie and we all had no idea where this story was going, but damn was it a blast watching it unfold one crazy scene at a time all the way up until the cliffhanger ending that left you wanting more, but still really satisfied with the awesome rollercoaster of a ride you just went on with this film.
This scene in particular is my favorite fight in the entire franchise. It is just one of the most hyped scenes in any of the matrix movies that hits the perfect blend of over the top fun while remaining cool the entire time, it almost leaves you wanting more, but intelligently cuts off before it gets too repetitive, it's simply just fun to watch especially the first time seeing it, I still remembering sitting there an awe watching it during the midnight showing when it first came out. Far more exciting than the actual final showdown in part three between neo and smith. There is just something about the way the music hits the entire time, how effortlessly and cool neo looks beating the shit out of all the smiths however its all for nothing as they keep getting back up as well as more and more joining in making it all really pointless, but damn if didn't look fun and cool. It's like neo knew it was most likely time to run away very early into the fight, but he was just having too much fun bouncing them around like pinballs that he stayed until he was literally out of room to throw them around. Classic stuff.
Everybody gangsta till Neo grabs a pole.
Most*
And dances
p
Which pole??
Pause!!
I love how they're pissed when he flys away, but at the same time kinda depressed.
Moving his head like “anyone here know how to fly, No?
Smithsssssssssss.....walk of shame.
one of the Smiths: i guess one of us needs to absorb the Creator or Oracle to fly.
Awwwhhhh, they wanted to play some more!
There's people complaining about CGI in this? To me it looks much better than most modern CGI movies lol
The bowling pin sound effect still cracks me up today. It's just how both out of place it is and how perfectly timed it was.
This is the most absurd, yet oddly magnificent thing I have ever witnessed.
compare to ip man, these so mess
It is not absurd, genre of this movie is aimed as fantasy
Oh it was magnificent in movies in 2003.
This is Epic, I know every move in my mind!
@@paramount7616 *sci-fi, not fantasy.
fun fact: Keanu Reeves was actually flying at the end
*John Wick

@Dennis Guerrero I knew it!!
Smith: wann get something to eat
Clones: Yeah
@@Zadon87 was that a Kung Fu Panda reference
to this day this is still one of my favorite fight scenes in cinema....just hits home for some reason
best fight scene and best end to a fight scene ever, no winners, no losers, just...another fight for anotherday. Smiths walking away is cold and hard. lol
Matrix fans: "This scene is awesome!!"
2020 audience: "So this is how John Wick fights without a gun..."
Yeeeeesssss!!!
Let him keep his gun then, jeeezus the whole world will end otherwise and all cause somebody shot a dog 🤣
Without a pencil
Best comment
Neo uses uses and his style is very different to the jon wick people know
I like to believe that from 1:30 onwards, the matrix is lagging over the fact of rendering and executing that many Smiths, just like viruses end up eating your computer that way.
exactly: is not the CGI that's obvious, is Matrix that can't render good the amounts of Smiths, and so the quality drop
wow interesting theory.
I never thought about that.
And it works.
🍷👍 sweet buffers! 🤷♀️
@@JK97SCORPION actually is bad CG from the time lol, the whole Matrix Reloaded film has too many shots of bad CGI. I just like the idea I conveyed to overlooked it.
The matrix has billions of people linked into it , I don't think lagging would be a problem spawning the smith's here .
The Matrix Reloaded is top 5 top 10 one of the greatest sequels ever made
I having bin watching the matrix for years. I learn something new every time. Like what’s possible. Definitely when he picks up that metal pole and the musics starts and makes smith stare at him with fear of the chosen one.
I love that on 2:13 Neo tries to do a pipe kicking move and fails tackled by one of the Smiths, but later he tries that again and succeeds.
not only is the cgi insane even by today's standards, you'll never see this kind of choreography anywhere else
Unfortunately, no and no.
The CGI was great for 2003, but even by 2007 we had far better, and in 1080p I was already seeing the texture smearing and poor blocking.
Also, Monty Oum has some fight scenes (check, Red vs Blue Season 8-10, or RWBY Season 1) that really put *this* to shame, although (admittedly) in his case, it's 99% CGI. It has to be, not only for the physical limitations of the actors, but also the physical limitations of the cameras.
That said, I still fight anyone who says Matrix 2 or 3 are bad movies. These are fucking masterpieces.
@@intoxigamer3617 from the perspective of ur average watcher, the cgi is good enough, and it actually ADDS to the action instead of replacing it, which makes it extra awesome
and plus, that fight choreography is insane
also, fun game: watch the last 3 star wars movies, and watch the background characters spin around during a fight scene
then look at all the extra agent smiths in this scene who are legitimately doing shit
My only problem with this scene is that I feel the punches are weak or it doesnt have a compelling sound effect to match the impact of it. Other than that i love rewatching this often.
@@AleXz971 The "weak" punches is what I love about this scene, like every Smith only gets one tap and than approaches again, it feels like Neo is showing off rather than trying to beat smith, but thats just my thinking, and I dont even know why, but I like these aimed hits with little impact.
Ah, but I don't mean the actual punches themselves I mostly mean the sound effect added to them. If a kick or a p unch sends you flying across the field it shouldn't sound like just a tap imo. Even if it's a Poke that sends you flying, if it has that much force to fly you away it should have a strong smack sound to it.
This movie was ahead of its time 😘👌
Still the best fighting scene of all time
They look at each other and they be like:
" Can any of you guys fly?"
"Knew I should've picked flight over cloning"
they could fly, if they managed to infect Supergirl. To do that they have to stick their fingers into her chest. I bet none of them would turn down such an oppaitunity
@@agentsmithlikestofingerwom7115 what the actual shit is wrong with you? Lol!
Agent Smith actually flies in Revolution
@@micha299685 Yea But I think only the Oracle that got turned to Smith can fly
@@MaazAltaf nothing's wrong with me if I make you lol :) also Smith should really get around to tittyfingering supergirl
No wonder why Trinity loves him so much...his endurance is godly 👀👀
AYO-
Lol
YO WTF
@@michaelnieva9870 he ain't wrong
Wtf
Spinning that Bo staff…. Perfection
I get goose bumps and chills down my spine when he grabs that pole out of the ground. So bad ass.
Same
The cinematography and the stunt choreography are unparalleled in this fight!
I agree that most of Neo's shots are CGI. But I am stilled baffled on how they conceived this sequence back in 2003.
The Matrix trilogy is definitely one of the pinnacles of movie making!
True. The cinematography alone is just unbelievable!
I like the fact that all the Smiths seem to be either actively trying to reach and attack Neo, or recovering after getting smacked. Usually in 1 vs many fight scenes like this you see several guys in the background just standing there waving their arms around while the hero fights 2-3 at a time, which kinda ruins it for me.
I wouldn’t say most
2003? Doesnt seem like it
It's ok.
I love the CGI. Not just because it was ahead of its time. But it gives the feel like he is in a game.
He is, and that's the point...
It was ahead of its time. Name another movie that rendered cgi humans this close to the camera, showing their face and moving seemingly realistic... I'll wait.
People sometimes say the CGI wasn’t great but I think it’s just as good as anything created today. Ahead of its time, as some people have said
@@CYB3R2K alita
@@grandmasteryoda9893 that's a very modern movie genius, this is from 20 years ago
Smith became a Virus of sorts...bit ironic given his speech to Morpheus in the first film. What dealing with a roach infestation feels like
This movie is the meaning of :Aged like a good old wine.
This fight scene was absolutely amazing, and still remains outstanding even 20 years later!
The choreography and editing makes it appear so seamless. Wonderful.
💯🙌
Serious? Are you sarcastic?
@@JB-zd8gv ...?
Is Keanu Cat A Priest or Monk or something ?
Everyone forgets this film came out in 2002. No matter how bad cgi looks today, this scene still gives me the chills I felt as a 6 year old kid
Exactly. When I saw it in theaters and Neo ripped the pole from the ground, I lost my mind. This fight scene is one of my favorites to this day.
oh no I'm old
Man I feel old, I was a year out of graduating high school, I remember being so excited for this sequel and it didn't disappoint!
2003
6 years old? *oblivious parent alert*
still coolest fight scene in all the films humans made so far
The part when he breaks out the metal pipe is so dope.
2:38 The single best special move in any videogame or movie.
He was destroying smith.
EyeProps that move was the Matrix Path of Neo videogame
@@michaelharris7820 I would always surround myself with the smiths just I could do that move XD
@@blackbirdfilms1966 cool
Jackie Chan did the same thing. Or something similar to it. 😂
2:19 when a rich celebrity asks for a lawyer.
xDDD
epic 🤣
Lmaooo why? Just why
lol haha yeah 100%
Perfect 👌
How in the world. Was Neo able to break out of the dog pile from agents who must've weighed over a ton??
He’s the chosen one bro. Like Morpheus said some rules can be bent others can be broken
The "knocking down bowling pins"🎳 sound was too funny towards the end😅
