I played the Cube version, controls didn't fit in real well in my opinion. As for the bullet-time effects, yeah, they were nice, but no where near Max Payne's.
Just check out the trailer for the second game, that trailer spells out "shame" for Atari's Enter the Matrix.

Ok, by repetitve, I basically mean doing the same crap over and over again... So you can put those 2 together. Let's see, go up to an enemy, disarm, kill. That's all I did for the normal parts of the game.
As for the car driving and shooting, big deal! Driving that car and losing on that stage annoyed me rather than making me have a good time. Shooting from the cars in a game with barely any freedom is not really fun for my taste.
Hacking was just entering codes... That was a unique way of entering codes, I'll give it that, but big freakin deal, it didn't really add much to the game's fun factor.
And please, don't get me started with the ship. There is absolutely nothing fun with bumping into walls...

Nope, my PS2 wasn't working at the time, so I had to play it on my Gamecube. Not a lot of Gamecube games out there have long loading times (barely any), but Enter the Matrix took forever to load and save. As for the Xbox version, well, thank Microsoft for installing a HD along with the Xbox.

I would have preferred something much better from Shiny's $30 million game. Everything in Max payne (especially the fighting style) was much better in my opinion. Also, even a 2D game like Viewtiful Joe knows how to handle Slow motion/bullet-time effects properly with a fighting style much better than Enter the Matrix.

Maybe the "repetitve gameplay" and "doing the same crap" were almost the same reason, but everything else I said in my opinion is true. Almost everyone agrees with me, so that should prove that I am not alone. Look at the reviews for this game, that's what I call a shame. Also, I can see that you're a hardcore Matrix fan... I love the Matrix, I think it's the single coolest idea for a movie, but the game for it just sucks in many ways. The only reason this game sold more copies than it did and the only reason some people like this game is the fact that it has The Matrix in it.
