Don't bother

Rating: 2/10 (5 November 2003)

I rewatched the first two movies before seeing this one. While I had walked out of Matrix 2 thinking it was better than Matrix 1, I have to admit I was wrong, upon watching the movies closer together. However, I really enjoyed 2 at the time I saw it, so I was looking forward to Matrix 3. Bad idea. Not enough hand-to-hand combat, too much of a wild story that just got wilder as we went along.
In retrospect, Matrix 1 was a nice little film (if that can be true of a big-budget movie) with some cool effects. Matrix 2 got away from the look and feel of that nice little film and Matrix 3 really leaves it behind.
Save your money and don't even bother with this one.
