10 Movies That Were Pretty Much Just Video Games

3. The Matrix Reloaded

Remember when The Matrix wasn't remembered for having awful sequels? I do. But The Matrix Reloaded took the first film and took away the clever, thought-provoking, action/sci-fi flick and turned it into a pretentious, over-plotted, scatological and mind-numbingly confusing trilogy. The CGI in Reloaded was ridiculous. A particular moment of merit was when Neo fought multiple copies of Agent Smith and they used a CGI Keanu Reeves - seeing as Reeves is already a walking pile of human plasticine, watching him in CGI form was laughable. This film is so much like a video game that its best part looks like Grand Theft Auto meets Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. I'm talking, of course, about the awesome car chase sequence. Yeah, it was cool, but you know what would have made it even cooler? If it were in a video game instead, and we actually got to play it. Oh wait, it's in the video game tie-in? Well, no need to watch this film any more, I guess.
