Great car-chase, shame about the philosophy.

A.C. Grayling reviews The Matrix Reloaded.

In a nutshell, he digs the action, finds the philosophy “incoherent and shallow”. He prefered the first movie which was lighter on pretensious exposition, and quotes/paraphrases Wittgenstein:

“Showing is better than saying”

Reminds me of Alan Kay’s “Point of view is worth 80 IQ points”. Anyway… Anthony Grayling getting over-excited by car-chases was great to wake-up to.

  1. Forgive pedantry, but ‘prefered’ should be ‘preferred’, ‘pretensious’ shoud be ‘pretentious’, ‘car-chases’ should be ‘car chases’. I’m just looking at the posting for 10a.m. 20 May. Perhaps we can then tackle the intricacies of A.C Grayling. And ‘wake-up to’ (Australian?)
