Both girls are attractive, sure. This will make the lesbian sex scenes interesting for many, sure. After those few minutes I was struggling to stay awake.
I judge films by more than just the directing, which was great in this film. Some really imaginative and classy shots, for sure. The acting was great overall. All they needed was a more interesting story.
Mob, mob, mob, mob. What's so interesting? In parts of the film I got lost when stereotypical mafia names were realled off. "Johnny don't like Benny, Benny don't like Silly, Silly don't like Dopey, and Dopey don't like Bashful". Not an actual quote but it's not far off. C'mon, the Watchowski brothers have a LOT of talent so why waste it on such a pointless script?
That said, I'm glad I saw it once. I'm a Matrix fan and can appreciate the similarities in the directing.
Is it worth watching again? Never.
