Are you kidding? That scene was probably one of the reasons the movie wasn't good at all. It was a very "Charlie's Angels" moment, where the fighting really had no context, and was just some filler flash, which even in that sense was pointless, as only some minutes later, we have the Neo/Smiths fight.
I loved the fight scenes in the first movie, but they were also all in a context that gave them a REASON to be in the movie. It seems like the directors just stopped listening at "I loved the fight scenes," and completely disregarded any point in attaching them to the movie. They just seemed more focused on trying to outdo their own visual effects from the first movie, and less focused on actually continuing the story. I think people could have been just as happy with the same bullet-time and 360 camera spins if it was combined with a great story, instead of having a fairly muddy and recessive story that showed up Neo's flying abilities 30 times and twin ghosts.
