The better one of the two

Rating: 6/10 (29 June 2007)

"Reloaded" and "Revolutions" are much alike, which one you prefer depends on whether you're a Kung-fu aficionado or rather into science fiction battles like me. The city of Zion and its machinery is definitely worth seeing in action, and I confirm that about 250.000 sentinels are on screen ;-). Another good thing: Neo is about to reach his destiny - at last! One has to wait throughout a pointless encounter with the crooked-toothed guy who played the crazy helicopter pilot in "Mad Max 2" - any of you remember that one tenderly? -, but after that it's Full Metal Knit Jacket. An APU is something I definitely wouldn't want to compete with for parking space - how do all those guys get around without hitting each other?
About the rest I won't say much, it's a solution to a complex Trilogy. Is Neo dead, is he waiting to be recycled? It leaves one to wonder about a world where machines have the upper hand and war or extinction is always around the corner - would it be bearable for man to tolerate such a situation? So one may speculate how long "this peace is going to last" - "As long as it can."
