Nothing more left to say

Well, I just saw The Matrix Revolutions and I must say, the movie definitely overwhelmed me with the special effects. Nothing short of impressive.
However, for the people who expect some more insights, or nuances and subtleties of what the Matrix is, there is none. This time, its just the fight to the last man for the city of Zion. Every man is fighting for freedom. It is a war waged on many fronts. Zion, Neo, the Matrix, Trinity, Morpheus, Niobe, they are all fighting in one way or another. It is indeed a dark time. As they say, everything that has a beginning has an end, I might say, everything that needed to be said, has been said. This is just one roller coaster ride to end it all. Some might say that instead of going out with a bang, Matrix ended with a thud.
I say that looking at Matrix Revolutions in its on light, it fared pretty well. The purpose of the third installment just seeks to put an end to the story (although I wonder how long it will be laid to rest, the next Matrix movie may not be written by the Wachowski bros? Maybe Neil Gaiman?). Given the development of the story, it seems the only logical conclusion.
