A few surprises, a lot of openings...

Rating: 8/10 (6 November 2003)

First of, I believe Matrix Revolutions should be seen as a part of something else (the trilogy) thus explaining more then any one of the movies can seperatly. This the third and last part of the Matrix-saga offers a few surprises although the characters are pretty much set. Second, the casting is great. You see no change in the sceptic Lock, and although Morpheus and Trinity seem to re-evaulate their trust in the Oracle they still don´t go against her advice. Something I do felt a bit dissapointed with was the fact that Merv and Persephone had such a small part in this movie. Granted, I would give pretty much everything I own for with Monica Belluci (Yes, she is stunningly beautiful and can act ok) but after the scenes in Matrix Reloaded I´m surprised not to have seen more of them, like a build up to nothing. And if Merv is so powerful how come this does not seem to concern Agent Smith at all? With such a complex plot, I am very content with the ending. I may not be a total surprise but it´s something we haven´t seen over and over again.
