I have never been this disappointed by a movie.... ever....

Rating: 5/10 (5 November 2003)

First of all this movie didn't suck. Neither was it any good. The story is lacking to say the least. I did not leave the cinema with any feeling that this was a terrific end to a great trilogy, but a lacking end to a pretty great trilogy ignoring the last installment.
*some spoilers, but not a significant part of the story has been revealed, due to the lack of one*
The "Twins" from Reloaded were missing which was one of the biggest disappointments. But Monicas "Twins" did pull this movie out of a * out of *** to a ** out of ***. I was hoping for one of the most excellent movies ever, maybe that is why I thought this movie was such a big disappointment. There were no new real answers or paradigm shifts, just the same stuff we had been served since the previous movies. The story went nowhere fast, and stayed there. Just to have a pretty dull ending with no feeling of an end, maybe they wanted that but the Wachowski brothers could have managed to do it better than THIS. The special effects were pretty good, but eye-candy is not a substitute for a good storyline. As a movie it isn't all that bad, I have seen much worse, however it would not have . But as a part of the trilogy it is a horrible mistake. Reloaded had better fight scenes and a more suitable pace, and it had the revelations of the Matrix and "The One". The first one stands out as a truly visionary film. But this one is the lesser of both by a lot.
