Simply the best movie trilogy ever

Rating: 10/10 (1 October 2003)

Ok i have heard enough of this Matrix bashing since the beginning. Now, most people would have said that a Matrix basher would not get the story or something. But now people have become more wise about the story from the first Matrix movie. But people still don't get the flair of this trilogy. It isn't just some MACHINES REVOLTING AND TAKING OVER THE WORLD ploy like so many other movies. There is more meaning and psychology to this trilogy than any other science fiction movie ever. I don't know the reason why people compare this beautiful trilogy to Star Wars. I just thought Star Wars was a copy of Star Trek and was boring to me. "LUKE I AM YOUR FATHER" must have been the only worthwhile dialogue in the whole StarWars legacy. The Matrix is already being hailed as the best science-fiction, fantasy movie trilogy ever. I have watched Lord of the Rings and I have absolutely no reason why it's any good. The only part I must have liked in their whole trilogy is the first scene in the first movie when they show how the Ring has been passed down generations. Back to the Matrix. The philosophies are clearly very complex and mindbending. The Wachowskis definitely have a vision and they must have read many books to get this knowledge. Even though the first movie was stupendously mindblowing and a very deep storyline so did the second movie. The story might look very weak but actually it is quite strong. It is a progressive story instead of the hard hitting story for the first movie. The brothers intelligently made the second movie to follow on from such a classic that it didn't even feel like a repeat of the effects and action sequences. Clearly, the freeway chase scene blew me away. And I don't know what people have against cgi being used in the 100 agent fight but i thought it was stunning. The fighting choreography must have taken years to get right cause it was crazy to do. Poor Neo, had to do all those moves. Other movies you can clearly identify cgi stuff but in the matrix movies you just can't. The ZION city looks ultra cool and the sentinels look as creepy as ever. One thing though, the Architect speech was a very spectacular twist. I don;t know how the Architect memorized all that beautiful ranting about anomalies and human errors but it was very jaw dropping. The brothers seemed to write every detail into that speech and made it very involving. Now I love cgi only if it's nice so I loved when Neo burst out of the room and broke everything in his way. Fire explosions from the building, glasses shattering. Cars smashing and flying. The cinematography was very good. The fight scenes didn't just look like actors doing moves and the camera moving in one way. The camera was going in all angles and directions. The zooming of buildings as Neo is flying to save Morpheus. Oh yeah and the monumental scene in which Trinity falls. The brothers tried to show this scene like in the first movie when she runs from the agent. Very awesome scene. And did anyone notice how door numbers played an ultra huge role in both movies. I won't go in detail about which door did what and what were the consequences. There's still a lot of philosophy going on about the Architect's speech. Simply put the BEST SEQUEL for a movie in the longest of times and obviously the BEST MOVIE TRILOGY EVER!!!! 2003 IS THE YEAR OF THE MATRIX. MATRIX REVOLUTIONS, BRING IT ON!!!! 11-05-2003 YEAH WE ARE SO READY!
