They bend physics laws, but they are not in the Matrix
What a steaming pile of crap movie.
At some point I was actually expecting some reasoning behind why these assassins were able to pull off such outstanding feats such as being able to play, run and fight over moving trains as if gravity and wind did not exist, or how can they actually shoot curved path bullets, among an endless list of incredible stunts, unfortunately, the explanation never came. This is an stupid Matrix-esque movie, with all the Matrix super human cliches, but without a reasonable Matrix explanation as to why these fellows seem to be able to bend the laws of physics. Oh wait, I remember, they can do all of these because they train by kicking each other asses; so this is the Matrix plus Fight Club...or maybe they acquire super human skills by bathing on those rat sewers, perhaps rat's pee is the key.
They tried to portray the idea that there is common people living common lives, completely oblivious of another way to live; presumably better and superior by means of being an assassin, which gives you super skills. Nevertheless, they never explain how said super human skills are acquired (other than receiving repeated beating from fellow assassins). Man what a *beep* up idea, take the red pill and become an assassin or take the blue pill and you will stay hmm "normal" and "boring" by not killing people.
Not to mention the endless cliche scenes of a skinny "hot" chic kicking eveybody's butts. I mean, come on, Trinity could kill a bunch of cops in seconds, but there was a valid reason provided within the Matrix movie universe on which all that could be possible, whereas in this movie, no reasons are provided for Angelina's super powers.
Now, if this was not supposed to be a Matrix copycat, then what is it? Are they living in a parallel universe where they have a different set of Physics laws? Are they all dreaming? What the hell is going on, why can they do all that?!!!!!
Anyway, this movie ended up being a series of cool wannabe scenes tied together almost randomly. It makes you wonder... was McG involved in this?
Regarding the fabric's binary code, how do they translate binary to letters? What code do they use for it? Is it ASCII or EBCDIC which were invented until the 20th century.
Furthermore, do their character set is Latin alphabet only so they can only kill Latin based 27 character named bad guys? Did it include the letter ñ for Spaniards? Otherwise if you are Spaniard and you have an ñ within your name you are free to go. All the bad Iñigos and Iñakis out there, you are free to go dudes!
Or is it a thousands character set that would include Japanese, Chinese, Arabic, Korean and Cyrllic characters? I doubt that, as the set would be so difficult to translate in the middle ages as it would be impossible to decipher the binary to human readable words. For the ones that do not understand this, translating a code of 27 letters to binary may have been easy to figure out, decoding a set of thousands of possible characters from binary codes would be impossible without computers. No monk could ever figure that out.
So the Fabric is a bit racist and will only give you Western names probably excluding Spaniards, hence all the Chinese, Japanese, Koreans, Russians, Serbians, and all the bad guys NOT having a Latin alphabet based name would be off the hook.
By the way, can someone give some food to Angelina Jolie please? Watching her hip bones and extremely skinny arms, it is becoming creepy.
