The Matrix Revolutions (Full Screen Edition) Reviews
Disappointing
The original Matrix should have been left as a classic, stand-alone movie. Is there any effective follow-up to a messiah tale? (I know Frank Herbert fans would argue vehemently against me.) But Hollywood always wants to capitalize on commercial success and squeeze every dollar possible out of a concept. So many story arcs and sub plots started in the second movie are abruptly dropped or never pursued in this final installment of the trilogy. It is as if the movie makers suddenly said "Oh @$%, we gotta finish this movie - QUICK!" The plot shift is so drastic and unbelievable as to be almost comical.
My Advice: See and love the first Matrix, then never, ever watch the following two movies. You'll be happier.
Could anyone please explain me what happened?
This movie feels forced, almost like if they had simply shot it to complete the trilogy, the death of the main characters and the ending simply left me aghast because of their absurdity. And all that quasi-philoshophical babble ends being laughable: "Cogito ergo sum vis a vis, capicci?". Why the trouble of watching three movies if at the end everything is cycled and planned beforehand by the machines? I can only marvel at how far this movie is from that "Matrix" that amazed audiences and movie critics alike and went to win 4 Oscar movie awards. Almost always the third installment is the worst in a series: Superman 3, Jaws 3, Alien 3. Don't waste your money and better go and read a good Sci-Fi novel. Carlos M. Santillan H.
