Flawed but extraordinarily ambitious the Wachowski
siblings prove again that the can have a stab at anything. One day it will all
come together for them - but not here. A big narrative it deserved a big canvas
yet the unevenness of the scale and scope of the storylines makes it a
curious experience.
The six narratives - smartly interlinked with some
excellent editing - vary in their interest and resonance to each other. Most
jarring however was that device - same actors different characters. Whilst they
were all having big fun in the dressing up box it detracted from the story. A
more nuanced director could have used the traits, movement and mannerisms of different
actors to align the characters.
That said fair play for trying.
