An extremely disappointing end to a potentially great beginning.

Rating: 3/10 (9 November 2003)

If only the Wachowski brothers hadn't sacrificed story in lieu of putting out two movies, a collection of anime stories and a video game in the space of 6 months, the Matrix trilogy might not have suffered from a lack of direction, purpose, plot and conclusion.
If there is not going to be a Matrix 4, then 2 and 3 were a waste of my time and money. At least they could tie the story back to the beginning, or give us something that logically makes sense. I could list all of the irregularites, but what's the point. I should've stopped watching when I was ahead. Matrix 1 is a great movie, don't waste your time ruining it by watching the other two.
Note: I base much of my opinion on quality of plot. For those of you who go to movies just for special effects, then the above most likely won't apply.
