The Best in my opinion

Rating: Null/10 (28 February 2004)

The Matrix was born in summer of 1999, it opened up a whole new way of film making and created a buzz around Hollywood that had not been heard since the reign of Star Wars back in 1977, the movie opened to rave reviews by critics and among every filmgoer in the world asked the question `What is the Matrix'? I am still trying to figure that out because the Matrix isn't the easiest of films to understand but there's nothing wrong with a little bit of thinking now is there.
In summer 2002 we were treated with the Matrix Reloaded which didn't get the warmest of welcomes but in time and I think it will be appreciated for setting up the third instalment which has just been released The Matrix Revolutions which holds the tagline `Every Beginning has an End', I won't tell if that statement is true, you'll have to go and see that for yourself and it's fair to have you're opinion on films, but I thought he was being a bit harsh to tell you the truth, because I don't think Revolutions lives up to the first instalment but I am someone who didn't actually like the first one as it just wasn't a film I connected with and when I captured the grand ore of Reloaded and I found myself believing in the Matrix as it became more apparent to what the whole story was about and I actually think Revolutions is the epic film out of the trilogy we have been waiting for. It starts off where Reloaded finished and you are straight away sucked back into the war which is about to happen between the humans and the machines, but you do get the feel that you are watching a film which is way over you're head, but the longer it goes on the more we see what is about to happen. Neo is in a coma after fighting off the sentinels at the end of Reloaded, Trinity and Morpheus are coming up with solutions to what to do next and Agent Smith is just trying to rule everything with his army of clones. The acting is very good, not superb but you can't have everything, the dialogue is above standard with the odd giggle from time to time, and the battle scenes alone hold this film to be a contender to be one of the best films in the trilogy. The idea of the films was the first would be deal with Birth, the second would deal with life and the third would be about Death, so it comes across that Neo is Jesus in a futuristic land trying to save everybody except himself, because that's another thing that the films deals with and that's sacrifice.
