RE: (ENG/SPA) CineTV Contest: Agent Smith All of Us are Inevitable, God Review

Matrix Reloaded is without a doubt one of the best sequels out there, developing a story that already with the first installment did more than impress an entire generation with a post-apocalyptic world dominated by machines and where humans try to survive. After making such a huge reference to today's society and creating one of the most interesting and potential futures to happen for humanity, What else could you get out of this great story? This is where this sequel comes in with a vision that goes beyond what is already known, making anyone reflect on their own "purpose" in life.
That's right, as Agent Smith points out several times in his encounter with Neo in this second installment. This monologue that he left us makes us reflect on what really makes us different as humans, who are also controlled by ourselves in a world plunged into darkness. A society where difference is eliminated and where being equal is the general rule. A world where laws are passed under the table while the interests of high officials are positions above that of the majority. A world where the masses allow themselves to be controlled with information from sources of dubious origin to become slaves to consumerism and conformism.
A man or a robot with a purpose or a dream that goes beyond everything we have already mentioned is what makes them equal. That's why, with his sights set on Neo being considered "The Chosen One" to free the world, he faces the harsh reality of what freedom truly means.
In short, a masterpiece, nothing more.
Excellent post.
