Good movie but grossly overrated

It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.

Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

The matrix revolution is amazing action film i enjoy watching them it is such a great movie

For those who might have though that it couldn't get any worse after The Matrix Reloaded, this is unfortunately a very unpleasant surprise. As if things couldn't get any worse in this franchise, The Matrix Revolutions is one of the worst movies ever made.Obviously the first Matrix was a great film which didn't need 'Reloaded' ruining its legacy and 'Revolutions' destroying it. The problems in Reloaded continue in Revolutions. It has the same idiotic subplots with characters that have people playing them that simply cannot act ( The two women trying to take down the machines is the primary example, with one of them being a supposed tough broad with short hair and a tank top. Just a bunch of feministic nonsense to keep the social justice warriors happy ). The machines invading Zion is unfortunately just an ugly grey CGI fest which leaves no visually lasting impression on any objective person. CGI doesn't have to ruin a movie, but it has to be used only when it has to be used, not everytime they feel like taking the easy route while filming a scene, which is what happened here. Besides, filming a giant battle like that in Zion was doomed to fail anyway, since Zion was already the most uninteresting area from 'Reloaded' due to its bleak, ugly, grey cinematography and terrible characters.The Merovingian, the only interesting character added in 'The Matrix Reloaded' was not used at all except for one scene near the beginning which is just an absolute waste of his character potential. Instead we get to see the annoying kid that idolizes Neo saving Zion while one of those two women ofcourse saves him at the very last second. Not sure what the screenplay writer was thinking in this film, but it seems like he was intoxicated most of the time.Finally we have Neo and Trinity taking the journey to machine city. The movie finds a purpose for Smith in being changed into a rogue program being a threat to the machines and the humans. Yeah, it's terrible writing once again, but he needed to have a purpose for the movie to sell since he was the star villain of the first one. In one of the most terrible uses of CGI ever put to film, we have Neo and Smith face off in the end in a 1v1. They fight while flying in mid-air with the CGI graphics of a 1998 videogame. Where is the brilliance of non-CGI athletic choreography that the original had? Nowhere to be seen whatsoever. We also have a useless subplot of someone in the real world being taken over by Smith yet not killing him when he is blinded for two full minutes, resulting in him getting killed himself, which is ofcourse a terrible hero-villain cliché once again. Smith also seems to suffer from this a lot in the final fight. Despite that he is a rogue computer program, he prefers to preach to Neo instead of defeating him. Neo and Trinity die yet we are not sad for them but happy that this agonizing experience is over. If this kind of thing happened in the original it could evoke emotions in the audience, but not after sitting through this bunch of nonsense.In the end there is probably nothing positive i can say about this film, it is just a videogame ( And not a particularly good one i might add ) with terrible CGI and with a bunch of dumb subplots with characters no one cares about that absolutely cannot act. Forget the sequels, stick to the first one.

The human city of Zion defends itself against the massive invasion of the machines as Neo fights to end the war at another front while also opposing the rogue Agent Smith. The Matrix Revolutions is by no means better than the first or second film i mean the first act is kinda slow but 2nd and especially the 3rd act are very good. The Mr. Smith vs Neo battle was very good sure it had some dumb cgi moments in it but overall a great enjoyable battle that pretty much is the highlight of the movie also the fact that Neo gets taken or probably he is dead nobody will ever know and Trinity died as well but the movie ends in a Happy way doesn't mean that it's a bad sequel i mean just look Terminator 2 for example Arnold dies and the world gets saved i don't compare a good sequel to one of the best movies ever made i'm just saying that every film sometimes deserves a good ending instead of a mass destruction one. Also don't try to compare this to Matrix or even Reloaded all this 3 movies are different on their own way and honestly i think this is the last good film the The Wachowski Brothers ever made but also if you play the game "Path of Neo" you will see that the ending is way different and longer than the one that the film has 8/10.

"The Matrix" is one of my favorite movies. Seeing as how everyone was talking about how awful this one was, I was surprised that it had a rating of 6.7. I guess I agree that it's not good, but it's at least okay. Probably the best part is how it really does get better in the last two thirds. The first third of this movie is dreadfully boring and I just don't know why these actors aren't raising their voices. It makes everything rather bland. You can really notice the lack of emotion more in this, while it wasn't as apparent in the previous films. I think the main problem is how this film was paced.It shows twenty minutes of the humans in Zion fighting and then twenty minutes of Neo fighting. I would have enjoyed it more if it had combined the two. There was little variety that way. Nonetheless, there were definitely good things about the movie. The CGI is very good and it even seems to have improved from the last movie. Considering they were filmed right next to each other, that really is saying something. Hugo Weaving is just so entertaining as Smith. While it's difficult to take him seriously, it's still really hard to not be entertained on some level by this guy. I'm impressed by the sheer number of different roles he's had in popular franchises.I just love the idea of Smith escaping to the real world. They did that part fairly well. Then again, it might just be because like I said before, he's such an entertaining character.The basic story is that the humans are fighting the machines while Smith has taken over the Matrix. Neo decides to go to the machine leader to stop fighting if he defeats Smith. I admit that this conclusion is really too convenient and seems like a cop out. It's still nice to see the conclusion of such a popular movie series. I bought "The Matrix" package films in one box set and I think it was money well spent. Even if the ending was mostly unsatisfactory, it's by no means awful. I guess I could recommend it if only because it's something that's really popular and does have some good variety. It even seems like they were trying to give all the characters some important role even though it didn't work out nearly as much as something like Return Of The King or Return Of The Jedi. I have a soft spot for third entries in a series...and also ones that have "Return Of The" in the title for some reason. **1/2 out of ****.
