I thought the Twins themselves aren´t the cg highlight of the movie. I´d go more for the highway chase, Burly Brawl, and Neo´s Superman Thing.

I thought they looked the same. I wasn´t expecting much cg breakthrough work on them, -maybe some happy faces too imprinted in them?-

Ouch. Again. Everyone´s entitled to their opinion. But mate, I really think you are underrating the work presented in the film.

Sorry if I came across as vague, but you did hit it spot on though. It´s almost everything you said.

Me neither, and thankfully I don´t believe that is the case with this movie.
By the way, love to see how you would handle the Burly brawl and tell me if you wouldn´t find it innovative afterwards.
I believe the vfx are what we´d say cutting edge, representing what probably next generation features will feast on. They had some flaws? Yes. I also saw fake Neo jumping and flying all around the place. Was it dissapointing? No. I wasn´t busy trying to pinpoint all flaws, I was busy enjoying the overall experience of it all.

especially the scene with neo and smith after the oracle was stretched way too long.
Hehehe, the way I see it the Burly brawl has to do with people´s psique.
I noted Neo could have started flying whenever he wanted to, so he could have just escaped the place and be done with. But the fact of seeing his ol nemesis, and having the chance to fight him took the best out of him, and so he did. -regardless of how many of them actually got there-
Now what does this have to do with people´s psique? Well after the movie I asked around -didn´t we all?- and I got a sense that the scene particularly had a diferrent effect on everyone. There was people who said it was short, others that it was too long ... and I came to the conclusion that it had to do with YOU pinning down with those Agent Smith´s. Would you fight all the way? Ask yourself this, and vey much probably you would have started flying earlier. Some others might respond: Nah. I would have stayed there, and fought a thousand of the f*cks.. Those very much probably thought of it as a short scene.
Brian got pretty much the gist of the remaining in his reply.
