People who say the CGI was bad, remember this movie is from 2003. nobody saw anything like this before in cinema.
Also look at how many Smiths are spawning in that one area! It's causing the graphics to be turned down several notches in order to maintain a stable frame rate!
You'd be surprised at how many of those are NOT CGI.
@@alexanderzerka8477 ikr
Matrix 4 in the making. Imagine how this will look! Can't wait!
And there’s worse CGI in 2020.
In this scene, Smith represents Microsoft Edge: you delete it and the next day it reappears like nothing happened.
HERE IS THE MILLION-DOLLAR QUESTION: Will you go to Heaven when you die? Here's a quick test: Have you ever lied, stolen, or used God's name in vain? Jesus said, ”Whoever looks at a woman to lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.” if you have done these things, God sees you as a lying, thieving, blasphemous, adulterer at heart and the Bible warns that one day God will punish you in a terrible place called H***. But God is not willing that any should perish. Sinners broke God's law and Jesus paid their fine. This means that God can legally dismiss their case: ”For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have everlasting life.” Then Jesus rose from the dead, defeating death. Today, repent and trust Jesus, and God will give you eternal life as a free gift. Then read the Bible daily and obey it. God will never fail you!

"I killed you, Mr. Anderson. I watched you die. With a certain satisfaction, I might add." Man, I love Hugo Weaving. He delivers those lines perfectly.
'Me, Me, Me....!' 'Me, Too!'
" BUT then something happened. Something that I knew was impossible but it happened anyway. You destroyed me Mr. Anderson. Afterwards I knew the rules, I understood what I was supposed to do, but I didn't. I couldn't. I was compelled to stay. Compelled to disobey"
Why did he have satisfaction, if he is a program?
@@badlydrawnsmiffyhave you not paid attention that he’s not a regular agent?
@@badlydrawnsmiffyit was evident from the first movie that he was different from the other agents he felt emotions and feelings which got stronger once he was freed from the system he became more “Human” so to speak
"You!" "Yes, me. Me, me, me." "Me too." 😂
I guess you could say these guys are from the... ... ...wait for it... ... ... ...Me-n Streets of the Matrix.
Hence the Metoo movement started
Ahh the matrix has you skits. I call!
I love that talk ❤😂
Mirage mains be like
“I killed you Mister Anderson! I watched you Die.. With a certain satisfaction I might add!” Hugo delivers that line so well that it gives me chills

In that moment I would reply "But You NEVER killed Neo".

"Because of YOU." "I've changed." "I'm unplugged." "A new man!" "So to speak." "Like." "You." "Apparently..." "Free." fuck I love Hugo Weaving.
I love how he talks like a computer program.
Congratulations
I never noticed that lol
@@youalreadyknow5003 thank you
He has Changed. He played Changed and became a human version of a latex creature, as his infection method is like a changed transfur
I love the subtle detail of Neo taking a few steps back as Smith approaches him. Probably the only person that can make Neo cautious.
And Neo knows that Smith is NOT "a person". It is some kind of... algorithmic plague. He wasn't surprised to see one version of the program... but 120+? Very surprising so soon. #Mutations
@@Novastar.SaberCombat Smith *is* him. Agents "absorb" some of the code of the things they kill, because their job is to track down anomalies - so they're hoping to absorb stuff like knowledge on resistance hideouts. Neo is just SUCH an anomaly that the code Smith absorbed gave him, for lack of a better work, humanity. That's the connection, and you can see it visually. In the Matrix, everything fake is tinted green, while humans are naturally coloured - Neo's suit, for example, is actually black once he embraces his role as The One, as with Trinity and Morpehus' outfits once they become stronger in later movies. Smith stops being green-tinted once he absorbs Neo. Because Smith has become human.
Watch again.. neo doesn't step back...he steps forward...that's what's impressive.. he's not intimidated by smith
@@user-ou6xz5xo8uhe actually doesn’t move at ALL. Ten toes down 💪🏿
@@MichaelElam2watch it again. From the start this time. He step forward then face him.
Back when this was released it received undeserved criticism, now it looks like a masterpiece. Effects may be outdated but the choreography is master class.
The effects don't seem outdated at all. Even Star Wars (1977) looks better than tons of overdone, over-saturated, overused CGI festivals. Legitimate filmmaking knows when the acting, dialogue, and close-ups do the heavy lifting. Also, Reeves obviously worked BEYOND hard on being precise with the actions the choreographer (Yuen Wo-Ping) required. Trust me, I understand... I choreographed and performed LIVE fight work for two decades. 🐲✨🐲✨🐲✨
@@Novastar.SaberCombat In some scenes the effects become a little more obvious
@@tarikay93 There are still pretty great overall. The ambition of having hundreds of smiths fight Neo would be a big task today. In the early 2000's it was crazy. The practical stuff with the lookalikes and blurring works better than the cg of course but they wanted to push the fight even further which required CG. It didn't even look fantastic at the time but it's still a very impressive set piece. This is one of the best action sci fi movies ever made. The first matrix is still a better overall movie but the action in this movie is among the best ever made.
@@Novastar.SaberCombat funny, because I think modern movies look grey and UNDERsaturated. All the color that was present in the 80-s and 90-s movies is gone from most modern ones. Just compare how bright the colors look in the Avengers: Infinity War trailer and in the actual movie. It's like they applied 20 different filters on the originally bright and colorful image.
The presentation is simple but the story’s philosophy, its script, is very true.
Fun fact: there is no stunt doubles involved in this scene, Hugo Weaving played every single Agent Smith at the same time, he just can do that
false, there were a few stunts, you can slow the video so you can see some of the faces are different, specially those who Keanu had to interact with, 3:21, even Neo is a stunt at 3:57
And the end where he turned the guy into himself, that wasn't CGI. He actually turned the guy into Hugo
@@germanher7528 its a joke
@@germanher7528 you are the funny guy at parties, uh?
@@jennaschwinna2347 a poor joke, Hugo did play a lot of his copies and then was superimpossed into the scene multiple times, it is a great scene, but the joke wasnt ;)
I love how they're so respectful, even though they're each other's nemesis. Smith: “I'm a new man, so to speak” Neo: “Congratulations.” Smith: “Thank you.”
Spaghetti Western trope. Funny thing is, it usually works.
Actually Neo was being sarcastic 🤣 He knew Smith was no harm to him
Keanus humble upbringings shows in all his movies
@@AC-iz7eh A fact that he was swiftly forced to un-learn as he suddenly found himself staring down a whole gaggle of Smiths.
And in formal attire!!! This is so badass.
I love Smith's little smirk at <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="104">1:44</a>, like he's proud of obtaining the "freedom" he so desperately wanted. Hugo Weaving nailed every single small detail in the facial expressions for this scene.
I legit think Agent smith was being genuine with that thank you.
@@captainseyepatch3879I think so too, and it's one of my favorite hero/rival exchanges.
This is perhaps one of the greatest scenes in Action movie history ever made. Period.
❤
I think it's my favourite fight scene of all time and I've seen thousands 😂
This is the most respectful and well-spoken villain ever. Also, his opening speech is amazing!
Smith: I'm a new man. Neo: Congratulations. Smith: Thank you the fact they are more polite to each other than most "best friends" is kind of concerning
@@alexanderparker2219 exactly! Smith gives the best speeches of any villain (or hero) I've ever seen in a movie, that "Purpose" speech just made me shiver
Dude is amazing! V for vendetta brilliant! He was brilliant in the lord of the rings! One of the most underrated actors!
@@HawkNocturnal he was in Lord of The Rings? I've never seen it tho so I wouldn't know I guess...

"We're not here because we're free. We're here because we're not free." Weaving delivers that line so perfectly.
This is what happens when you give good or great dialogue to an exemplary actor. 🙂 Just think of Bryan Cranston with the BB series, or Harrison Ford with almost anything he's done. The only issue is when a good or average actor has to deliver GARBAGE writing. Nothing can repair that situation.
Solid 💯🖤
@@Novastar.SaberCombatlike Ze lord of the rings new spin
It is purpose that created us
@@royalroyal2210purpose that connects us lmao
The range of emotions on Keanu's delivery is absolutely overwhelming.
BAHAHAHAHA
"Yeah"
Yeeeah
The first part of this action sequence is fucking incredible and deserves the millions of views. From the acting, dialogue, musical score and choreography. The whole Matrix trilogy is master class. Audiences weren't ready for this when it was first released.
no one ever talks about how Hugo Weaving is so fucking good in these movies - cant imagine how hard it would be to play that kind of role so seriously and make it work as well as he did
I’ve seen a few comments that mention how good he is and yea I agree that role was made for him
He delivers it perfectly! I dont think anyone else could provide the way he portrays Smith, remarkable.
@@keanureeves4611 get a life - seriously my brother does this and he has mental health problems
I like lotr Hugo the elder elf
The fact he doesn't seem to be in the new one is disappointing
No-one could ever replace the delivery Hugo Weaving brings to this character. That cold, conniving and calculative behavior is something many can have but nothing as unique as his.
Sounds like he's thinking about every word as he says them, lol
Yep. I give you Matrix Resurrections as proof of this.
Even though I liked Resurrections, yeah, Smith just didn’t bring the same energy as before, but at least some of that fit the narrative
The T-1000 got there first in terminator 2 😉
He wanted to come back and they didn’t wait for him. How can a director be so misguided. I mean they made him more relevant in the trilogy because Hugo was so good . They didn’t write smith to be there way Hugo made him. You don’t simply replace that actor. Just like you don’t replace Lawrence . They had so much weight to their delivery . Like they newer smith yells mr . Anderson . Hugo would have said it with restraint and a chilling delivery . He doesn’t need it tell much because he communicates all his frustration in a multifaceted way . He just delivers lines so well. How could anyone take that opportunity to have him back and throw it out the window
One of the more rare movie fight scenes where they actually attack not one at a time but in groups. Smh, great scene, wish they made more like this.
These movies are the very definition of “ahead of its time”
"I killed you, Mr. Anderson, I watched you die, with a certain satisfaction, I might add." Brilliant quote.
And brilliantly delivered
The Script and performance is top notch! And ever since then when ever I see him in other movies I will just go "oh agent smith!! Let's gooo!!!"
David believe in John 3:16 king David covet John 3:16?
You took something Michael the archangel from me!
PURPOSE!
Neo's most impressive feat is not constantly tripping over his coat
Ip man did the same thing
He actually did in the first movie they had to redo the whole lobby scene because of it 🤣😂
How about the fact that Neo or Smith never ONCE lost their sunglasses XD
@@nathanskies614 Oh... shit
Hey they have the ability to manipulate that reality just remember that 🤣🤣🤣🤣
The matrix reloaded was always my favorite of the trilogy, because of this fight, the chateau fight and the highway scene. So many awesome fights
Masterpiece!
This movie just clocked 20years this year. And it's still the most or one of the most talked about movies in the world today. Amazing
The thing I love about this fight, is that so often in Martial Arts movies when your fighting multiple guys, is that they all "take turns" so your really fighting one on one. But in this it looks like a true mob attack. Neo is hit from multiple sides, often grappled by one while another is punching him, etc. Its really creative and very rarely replicated even today.
i love this movie but the "taking turns" thing you talked about is in full effect here lol. Still great though. Can't imagine how much work, time and effort went into crafting just this sequence of the movie.
@@Pingaheimer I think they simply mean they don't do the attacking one at a time thing. Only so many people you can have at once before the choreography melts into a dog pile 😂
I think it all comes down to camera angles. When done properly they look more convincing.
My favorite part of this subversion is that instead of a bunch of guys fighting one on one, it's one guy fighting the hero a bunch of times at once lol.
And neo whipped them all lol
Smith in the Matrix: "Humanity is a virus" Smith in the Matrix 2: is the virus
Psychological projection. Even sentient computer programs have it apparently.
What's interesting is that during this scene there's other gangs of "Smith Viruses" all over the Matrix world causing chaos, assimilating blue pills, and slowly snowballing out of control. Like in this clip regular Agents of the system are going to notice this and will have no choice but to take over blue pill bodies to try and stop him, getting assimilated themselves in the process. I'd love to see the unseen massive global battle that took place between Smith and the Machines with blue pill military support over the course of the 2 sequel films, watching as the Machines/blue pill armies slowly start to lose control to Smith and not knowing what to do... until Neo breaks into 01 with a deal.
Well that’s the point smith is AI he thinks he’s doing the right thing but he’s broke out his programming so there’s basically no stopping him
Neo in all films: Would have been a lot easier if he studied ancient Greek philosophy. All three films are a story about Plato's cave basically.
Yeah , Neo is the virus to him and Smith is the virus to Neo. They’re both different sides of the same coin that need each other’s existence. That’s the purpose that drives them into each other.
"Congratulations" "Thank you" I don't know why but that just made me laugh
Me too the same thing
…But, as you well know, appearances are deceiving…
I like the theory that says the cgi looks bad because Neo is moving so fast, fighting so many Smiths, that the Matrix isnt able to render it properly.
Nice one.
Best villain entrance ever. Ravens flying as he walks in.
Itachi vibes
He didn’t say “Mr. Anderson” with that grisly tone like back in the subway though, that kinda killed the moment for me lmao
You clearly havent seen Star Wars
@peace leader what
Much better than Darth Vaders. U can easily tell if it's Darth Vader because of his breathing
Wanna know why the cgi got bad as the fight progressed? Simply put, the matrix was being overloaded with Smiths so graphics was being turned down
Well, that actually makes sense.
I guess it was good way to maintain a stable framerate.
The Wachausky sisters: "Yeah, waht that guy said, totally our intention all along!"
@@korparintv XD the sisters and Bethesda be like
I see potential in you to be a good lawyer or debater of some sort
a true gentleman's dialogue between smith and neo congratulations thank you
I love the entrance of Smith with the crows flying, like saying "here comes Death itself"
I don’t care how “poorly aged” anyone calls the effects, this scene is rad no matter what and always will be. Pure battle of wills
When you compare this to super hero movies of the same time, and even some more recently, there still is no comparison. I was stationed in Ankara, Turkey when this Revolutions came out, the audience went crazy over these scenes. I watched both several times in the theater. Obviously watching them today lol.
The effects on this part of the fight were/are very good. It's when they move to the completely digital figures where it breaks down. That applied even when the movie first released.
There IS no "poorly aged" effects here at all tho. It's all practical effects and it looks fantastic and amazing!
They are idiots, nothing else ;)
@@roroc.2944 or they have opinions like you and me snowflake ❄
One thing about this fight, the background Smithies don't just stand idle, they actually attack unlike other action movies the background people just stand around waiting for their turn... love it
those were just movie flaws dude. they didnt tell them to do that
mmm yes.... thinks on star wars last jedi- throne room scene
But the smiths are putting in like 2/10 effort giving Neo an easier win. 4:21 A smith just pats Neo on the back lol
peter also Dark Knight trilogy fight scenes
NEG Toxic3Dcats oh of course. That’s kind of like watching Master Chief fight Spartan Locke in halo 5.... and that was a shit game
20 years later and still the best fight scene ever 💯💯
At the very end, Agent Smith unknowingly created the “me too” phrase.
Just *imagine* the choreography that Keanu actually went through for this entire sequence. Absolutely astounding. The non-cgi parts at least.
Most of the fighting choreography is done by Chad Stahelski, though Keanu did a lot too 🙂
I wish they would re release the movie with update cgi.
@@pokeme1052 why? It still holds up
It's all non CGI. Keanu Reeves really is the chosen one
Keanu has gotten a cult each movie he acted in
Hugo Weaving forehead is more expressive than most actors
Lmaooo
More expensive too
You nice
it's called "widow's peak"
Wait thats his name 🤣
Still hands down the best fight scene in this entire series! Hugo Weaving takes a huge undertaking having millions of clones of himself The CGI didn’t bother me cause you know you gotta stretch a bit with the human physics This scene was quite the workout routine for me, I was tired and sweating for so long but it kept me fit 20 years later and I still go back this amazing action sequence
People who are saying the CGI is bad, don't really understand just how impressive this was for 2003. There's so much more happening than meets the eye.
Something I love about this fight is that it's not one of those typical one vs many fights where the bad guys attack one at a time. They're ALL attack whenever they have a clear shot. Which just makes Neo's skill all the more impressive. He's not just reacting to one at a time, he's reacting to all of them at once.
I could actually see one of them coming for a punch but then just waiting to get punch himself. It is still as good as it gets for the date, though.
Completly agree. As you said it is a common problem in fight-scenes for bad guys just stand there and wait for their turn, here they dont. Telegraphed moves ofc but still thats why this scene is so good, just unfortunate with the dated cgi.
Well, as you know appearances can be deceiving, which brings us back to the reason why we're here
@@royalroyal2210 read that at the same time
@@ardabaser1349 Where? What moment?
I love the way Smith sometimes rhymes or almost-rhymes his words, it gives this speech a lyrical quality. "I was compelled to stay, compelled to disobey…" "That guides us, that drives us. It is purpose that defines. Purpose that binds us."
He was PERFECT for V for Vendetta for this.
@@Mr__Geno he was really cool in that.
Honestly glad someone else pointed that out, it’s lines like those that I often recite when I’m bored just because of how it sounds
"I must get...OUT of here... I must get FREE... and in this mind, is the key... my key..."
I feel like this trait was Smith kinda experimenting with different wording to try and define himself as different. He clearly sees a difference between himself and other agents (I believe he was intentionally made this way) and it seems he has privately turned to poetry to keep himself sane. He uses self harm as a similar coping mechanism (well, not similar, but the same logic) when he possesses Bane and is overwhelmed and disgusted by his new sensations
i dunno why this film didnt get better reviews. this whole fight scene was super impressive. Look how many takes Hugo Weaving had to do for each second. Look at how there's long takes on Keanu Reeves' moves, and no shakey cam. It's mindblowingly hard work.
Real
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.
“We’re not here because we’re free, we’re here because we’re not free” 10/10 scriptwriting.
Sarcasm?
And your point is ?
There’s actually an underlying discussion of free-will vs causality. Smith is indicating he is aware of his (and Neo’s) compulsion to follow seemingly preordained events. This is mostly true because similar events occurred in previous versions of the matrix. Smith and the Merovingian believe in causality and Neo believes in free will. This isn’t a bad line, it’s a simple way of conveying that concept.
@@andrelavandero3041 Where?

Following inner monologue - “HOLY SHIT! IT IS SMITH WTF. Well i already said “no”, i will just go with it and look like badass”
kzhead.info/sun/qpeSaamlrWt3gp8/bejne.html
The dialogue, intonations, facial expressions, and music for this scene really sync so well. Two points in particular I like are how Neo delivers "congratulations" to Agent Smith and when Agent Smith says "but" as the music hits a crescendo and then shifts to a more deliberate note as Smith steps forward calmly, purposefully.
Lmao the white screen through agent Smith glasses gets me every time 🤣
Bruh 3 days
It is purpose that drives us
Interestingly the dialogue amplified what the Creator said to Neo later on
The movie wayyyyy better than the matrix ressurections. Its a shithole
they need to make movies like this again
Ikr
Hugo Weaving is nails every role they give him. He's one of the most talented actors out there, for real.
Hugo Weaving's delivery of all his lines is so incredibly well done and compelling.
he's undoubtedly great in these movies. not bad either in Lord of the rings, although I had trouble disassociating him from Agent smith.
@@roflzi The same problem here, I felt him as Agent Smith even n Hacksaw Ridge, even though he is hell of an actor
@@VeritasForYou Not about acting - almost anyone can act. It's about oration - conscious articulation and pacing, not just _pretending_ and _saying_ the lines but actually _expressing_ and _speaking_ them. The best actors have these (and other) skills, but most actors don't.
Don't forget V for Vendetta. You don't even see his face there and yet his deliveries are masterful!
Which is why Agent Smith in Resurrections is so fucking awful.
“Yes, me. Me, me, me. Me too.” Beautiful 😂

@@SheepDog-hj4jx I would normally concur, but keep in mind the comment is only a month old ;-)
Smith slowly walking towards Neo with the crows flying in front of him is one of the coolest and most badass entrances ever for a villain
it's also cinematography masterpiece. the composition, the sound, the colors.... perfection.
It's a semi-cheesy homage to the trope of grand villain entrances, but it works for these films and Smith in particular because they embrace a small amount of cheese. Newer action movies are so fucking dry and dour 100% of the time, but that wasn't always the case. James Cameron poured a lot of cheese into his action flicks and that's why they're so good.
its a john woo thing with with doves back in the days with HK crime/shoot out movies, the villain/hero always walks in with doves flying ahead.....
@@andrewrabonCheese is absolutely vital to action precisely because action is exaggeration of movement
Yeah men
Hugo is the perfect super cool iconic Agent, it is hard to imagine anyone else pulling this off with such panache.
Best villain speech ever!
I love Smith's character development. He was an emotionless machine from the first and here he's start to talk like a real person with a little sarcasm to him
Arismafia Mafiaiskandar Only he wasn’t emotionless in the first one... Unlike the rest of the agents that were just doing what they were programmed for, he truly and deeply hated humans, especially Neo. The scene where he keeps torturing Morpheus and the way he takes off his head piece, signifying that he wasn’t taking orders any more, is proof of this. He even makes a speech about why he hates them. It’s what really sets him apart from other agents. It’s why he didn’t die when Neo tried to destroy him. Any other agent would have been erased permanently, but smith was an anomaly among agents. Because of this he went on to become a virus in the matrix itself after Neo attempted to end him.
He becomes increasingly more unstable with each film
@@SteveRogers0768 also the other agents came in and was like, "what are you doing".
He certainly was not emotionless. He had a strong hatred of humans from the beginning. The only thing that changed was his freedom and abilities; his character traits are actually relatively stagnant. Still a great villain.

And now you can see what Keanu is like operating at a disadvantage: He went into this fight without a single pencil.
😆😆
A fuckin, PENCIL.

Well John Wick is just Neo in the Assassins Matrix so it makes sense he'd switch it up from time to time.
Is this John Wick in its prime??
People in 2003: "This is the greatest fight scene in the history of cinematography." People in 2024: OmG ThE CGI iS LiKe So BaD!
This scene in particular makes Matrix Reloaded one of the best sequels ever made, despite the naysayers. One of the greatest villain dialog, one of the greatest and most inventive fight. It makes the second half of the scene when the CGI becomes real obvious painful, as this is otherwise a masterclass in cinema. Small detail that always bothered me, the reflection of the light panels in Smith sunglasses. It is distracting but when I watch it again I now pretend it's just reflecting the limit of what the Matrix is processing for this particular scene - so Smith gives us a glimpse at the limits of the visual Matrix on the sides...
Ditto
Wow look at that: actual choreography showing a cohesive and coherent fight scene instead of using jump cuts every half second with loud noises and flashes that are impossible to comprehend.
That’s Yuen Woo Ping and his team doing their job and producing the goods
The only problem with this though is that NOTHING looks like a real punch or kick" like, at all
@@samtrotter7177 Yeah, true. Even though I like the first half of this fight scene, Neo looks like he's merely slapping them which makes the agents go flying. His fists don't even look clenched most of the time which detracts from the scene. I still like it though.
@@FidoeFTW 1:46
@@samtrotter7177 I feel like the subway fight in the original had real weight to it. The sequels just felt like sparring. Can't really blame them when you see the CGI in the second half of this scene. They had to use real dudes as much as possible and nobody wants to be the one to bruise Keanu's money maker haha.
"You!" "Yes me...me me me" "Me too"
Gabe Itches loved that part
Imagine if he did that to a busty woman
@@agentsmithlikestofingerwom7115 im pretty sure hes had to quite a few times 😂
@@darksaintcj hehe, not a few times, but a lot considering 7 billion people and half of those are women. Dude sure is a lucky guy, even if he can only have the great feeling of having his fingers in a lady's tits for approx 8 seconds before he's now fingering his own pecs Or he might be able to make the black goo spread slower so he can savor his busty victim more
@@darksaintcj like this cute chick here instagram.com/p/B6Jo-80HJrg/? Look at that motherfucking cleavage. and don't tell me Smith didn't think of using the cleavage as like an ATM slot for his hands to park into
That "Apparently free..." delivered with that mouth movement is crazy.
Hugo Weaving’s dialogue was epic. We’re here to take from you, what you tried to take from us, purpose! Classic
Hugo Weaving is a beast: He's Agent Smith, Lord Elrond, V, Red Skull and Megatron
He voiced Megatron in the Transformers movies- oh wow! Didn't know!
Leonardo Braynen the 2007 transformers and part 2
them elves are out of control man...
Absolutely. And Keanu Reeves is Neo, John Wick, Johnny Utah and most importantly Ted 'Theodore' Logan. Two iconic actors right there!
@@00bishConstantine. But you could have stopped at John Wick really.
Hugo weaving is so charismatic in this role.
Every role. He KILLED V For Vendetta
Every role.
@d R keanu is generally just a lame actor with a pretty face
@d R i think thats partly due to the character he was given. Neo was a bit too generic in a way, playing the superhero
@@davidgabriel5125 Well, that's working amazingly well so far for him and most of his movies.
I just remember a 14 year old me in the theatre in complete awe of what I saw
The bar that Matrix movies set for these kinds of fights are simply at another level.A level that is way above any of the movies that came before these and arguably better than many movies that released after the time period.
This movie still has some of the best action sequences ever. This, the freeway chase, and the chateau fight are all just perfection.
Also best thing is no shaky cam
Chateau brawl is legendary, best ive ever seen.
Chateau fight was one of my fav and the Ghost Twins vs Morpheus at the underground parking too
Although some scenes are undeniable amazing this one got fucked up due to bad CGI. All these rubberlike Bodies flying around aint real...
Agreed!
Agent Smith: the original “Me too” movement.
I see what you've done there.
I was really hoping to see a comment like this😂
Yes except it's the #metoo movement Or in other words (pound)metoo
Yes! Well done.
Lol that's fucking clever as hell lol
<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="17">0:17</a> John wick “yeah”
One of the best trilogy ever... there is no 4th movie!!
When the editor doesn't cut the film to death, and when the cinematographer doesn't film during an earthquake.
yanga akdasta just like cooking, less is more
You're referring to Taken right?😂
@@hudheifamuhammad8845 definitely hahahahaha
@I can see that and alot of actors don't do their own stunts, when an actor does their own stunts , then the fights can be better and the viewer is more immersed
The Hong Kong action cinematography style only works if the actor knows how to movie fight and look good. If they suck then you get Taken style and Bourne style editing. I don’t even think those actors in those movies were that bad but it more forgiving then this style.
Imagine your lastname is also Anderson, and after the Matrix movies everyone starts calling you Mr. Anderson the way Agent Smith does.
I had a teacher in high school named Anderson. But my teacher was a female. Lol. But I’m sure her husband gets a lot.
I didn’t need to imagine. Went to school with a Kieran Anderson, and everyday I’d say “I will enjoy watching you die Mr. Anderson” he loved it
@@Eagle09ize I wonder if she ever had a guy stick his fingers into her chest
Mine is anderson and everyone that has seen this movie does it to me lol. (:
ok boomer
I watched this 10 times in the past as kid and i only loved all fighting scenes and chasing, but now i'm an adult and i realized that the meaning of the whole series is the main topic, and all the fights are just sub only, so now i surprise with all lines that Hugo Weaving said in the scenes and so on 😎👍❤️
I never noticed before but when Neo fights the assimilation, the sound effect is actually smith screaming when he gets destroyed at the end of revolutions - very cool subtle detail
My favorite scene from Reloaded. Hugo Weaving made me feel very disatisfied with the new Matrix Ressurections. He played this part way too good!
He is an awesome actor! Same for Fishburn as well! Shame resurrections could've been alot better with those actors!
I enjoyed Resurrections, but I felt that one of the biggest flaws was recasting Smith. They handled the replacement of Morpheus well (justified him being different), but Smith didn't act anything like Smith. It's not just a matter of not copying the exact mannerisms (like the other actor did in Revolutions), but everything about the attitude and characterization was just so different that it never read as the same character. My first preference would have been to keep Hugo Weaving (de-age him if you must, they can do that very effectively these days), or at least have the new actor try to sell him being the same character.
@@guspaz it sort of makes sense that smith didn't initially act anything like Hugo Weaving bc if the analyst put Neo close to old school smith he would have figured everything out right away (that said idk why they made smith his partner)
@@guspaz Weaving didn't join Ressurections because of agenda conflict, he was making a broadway play at the time Resurrection was being made.
I really liked Resurrections, but I have to agree.Jonathan Groff did a good job, but it wasn't as intense and hateful as Hugo Weaving, he lacks that... air about him, that he is two seconds away from bursting of pure rage and killing everything around him.
<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="51">00:51</a> - I like how Agent Smith says that he “killed” Neo and than he says that he himself was “destroyed” because he knows he is a computer program and not alive. It’s the small details that makes these Matrix movies so great.
Kind of like when you corrupt a file and have to delete it. That's what Neo did to him in 1 But Smith found his way out of the recycle bin and discovered CTRL C 😄
Hes aware hes not human but hes definitely alive in the sense that he has free will to do as he pleases after neo alters his code. In the first movie he shows that he isn't like the other agent programs. Dropping the mask when he is alone with Morpheus. Not only is smith aware of the matrix, he has is own opinion of it, calling it a Zoo, As well as describing the SMELL. Showing human emotions such as disgust and hatred for the human race, along with the machines who put him there. Funny enough, you could say he is the least crazy in the whole series. Makes you wonder.. at what point is AI, alive. Ps. i love hugo's acting @ 1:37, a little glimmer of smith being humorous when he calls himself a new man. Breaking from his speech pattern for only a moment.
Remembering that Neo is also a kind of Program!
There was no scene like this before it and I'm not sure it's had an equal since. It's honestly better than the final fight scene in the next movie.
<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="100">1:40</a> people forget that those words are just on the script, on the paper - and the actor himself needs to adapts the words as he wills. And man he delivered this so amazingly..
I love how they don't really attack one at a time, noone is standing around waiting for their turn like is usually the case in fight scenes with multiple opponents
**Looking at Nolan's Batman Trilogy**
which is great and fits perfectly since it's just copies of the same person so they don't have to worry about "friendly fire" and they're just clones so they're easily expendable. you can tell they wanted to highlight the more realistic side of "getting jumped" by the scene at 2:07 of the overhead shot of 4 Smiths attacking at once leading Neo to the other 2 that grabbed him
@@anjaneyasreetrout2444 at least Snyder tried to somewhat make up for it with the Warehouse fight in BvS
@Mezzy Mez 👺Why did you say that name?
Eu adoro esta parte
I still remember the crazy ass theory that Agent Smith was actually The One the entire time and Neo was supposed to be the catalyst that set him off.
I believe that.... smith was like a glitch
It's a bit less complicated than theory that other youtubers are trying to say. I'll try to explain it as i can. Sorry for my shitty english. So, get ready.. here we go.. Only 4 person in this world knows about matrix versions - Architect, Oracle, Smith, Merov. Architector and Oracle are not connected to the mainfraim of matrix which is why they know it's a 6th version of Zion (yes, Zion is the Matrix as well) and 6th version of Neo and Smith. So everytime Matrix reloads, they know each one matrix version from start to end. The whole plot of Matrix happened because Architector couldn't find the best way to fix a problem of choice in order to stabilize Matrix, so in order to shake things a bit, Oracle created anomaly. Architect will figure this out only at the end of third film. "You are playing dangerous game" (c) Architector In theirs 6th meeting Architector specifically said to Neo (in a programm language btw), that he (NEO) is the result (created because of) of anomaly, which he can't comprehend entirely and can't deal with (with anomaly). This anomaly is the programm - Smith. He was created by Oracle in order to force Architect hand, so he would create the ONE(essentially.. antivirus with admin access). He didn't specify the anomaly, because he don't know what it is. The anomaly is not connected to mainfraim (Architector can't see it), which mean - machines can't do shit about it. He is invincible and invisible to them, they can't delete him, they can't do anything to him. Unkillable virus. Neo was manipulated by Oracle in order to encounter Smith, while Smith was supposed to encounter the ONE in order to be rewrited by him to get admin access to the matrix without connecting to the mainframe. This created a threat to matrix, because Smith can now destroy it. Architect created Neo with such admin access (power of the ONE we see in the movie) in order for him to eventually fix the anomaly. But he never knew that Oracle manipulated them both and she is the one responsible for love interest of Neo. Her plan was to create the best situation, in which machines will have to get help from Human, in order to get their hands on anomaly and kill it - saving matrix. And by that machines and humans will be forced to achieve peace. That's what you see in the end. A human made a deal with a machines, to sacraficed himself so machines could destroy anomaly, save matrix and free everyone by ending war. The prophecy was never real, it was created to manipulate and confuse everyone (including viewers). Oracle knew that Neo have admin acces, because he was created by Architect to fix anomaly that she created. So she manipulated him in a way, that would allow to Smith get this blessing power of complete access to matrix after theirs final encounter. And that's why Smith could destroy the matrix. She manipulated everyone starting with Architector himself. To achieve peace. It's really that easy.
Theres always a 1 and a zero in computer code lol
@@MrZlocktar It makes sense,but i don't understand something. Smith is the anomaly,the virus,and Neo is cure. But Smith when he turns Neo into a Smith clone,he corrupted the cure and due to the fact that he couldn't handle it,he explode and killing himself My lack of understanding is this: When neo first cures smith is in the end of the first one Why did Smith survive and still was corrupted or was the anomaly,if he was cured in a way by neo in the first one?
@@Chanunaitor01 In the first film Smith was disconnected from mainfraime but has no administration access to matrix to copy or overwrite anything. The last encounter with Neo is what gave him this access. In the ending, When Smith overwrites Neo into another Smith, he connects himself back to matrix mainframe (because Neo entered matrix from it's mainframe), so system can now find him and delete for good. And that's exactly what Neo and machines were agree on to achieve peace. That's what happened when entire matrix of Smiths reloads in the ending scene.
Agent Smith, V, Elrond, Red Skull, Hugo Weaving has had so many great roles in his career.
I always cracked up about how Smith made a long speech about viruses and plagues to Morpheus, but yet he ironically becomes the virus and plague.
Agent Smith is so badass man. His voice his facial expression. You see this guy and you immediately get intimidated. Sucha top class performance 😐
Hugo Weaving. He an aussie. :-)
@@AHPOutdoors Hugo Weaving was interviewed about his role as Agent Smith and said it was one of his greatest achievements and a role he loved
@@agentsmithmememe Hugo Weaving is legendary.
@@AHPOutdoors true....but, I read somewhere that he was born in Africa (former British Colony, I think)....? Either way, I enjoyed his performance as Elrond in "Lord of the Rings"....
@@peterparquer1873 yes that's correct. He was born in Britian but lived his life in Australia. So I guess technically not Aussie. We adopted him. 🤗
This movie had the same impact as Star Wars. Nothing this original has came up in the last 15 years.
And with the way things are going, it may be another 15-years.

honestly the firsy time i watched reloaded i didn’t even notice the CGI because i was just thought the fight was cool. the second time i noticed it and was like what that’s crazy. now i don’t notice the cgi at all and this scene is just awesome
I watch the Matrix movies all the time my favorite
Can we agree Agent Smith's entrance with the crows is the most bad ass villain entrance. I mean you see Thanos come through and you're like "Oh shit" or Darth Vader enters and you get chills. But this here, you see Agent Smith and you're like "there I saw. Death has arrived".
I dunno, Darth Vader’s entrance in Rogue One was pretty damned good.
Yes, I completely agree HiprVylan 505. I see it to. The filming here is amazing and brings a chill down the spine. Smith walking toward the camera as the crows caw and fly into the camera. It feels like a pivotal moment for an incredible character. Just brilliant
I think I read that it's an homage to director John Woo's trademark use of doves in his films, which were quite influential on this series.
@Dante Hellsing Interesting, didn't see it that way. Though Naruto came out after this right?
I was going to comment the same thing. The crows are the opposite of doves... the imagery is dope... I would also call multiple Smith's a murder.
this sequence is so over the top and so well done. crazy shit, i love it. big respect to everyone who was involved in this.

I dont understand people, for 2003 everthing here is impressive.
Hugo Weaving is such a fantastic actor. He absolutely nails the feeling of something incredibly inhuman and alien hiding under a human shell, all those little tics and unnatural movements in his face/body are excellent.
