Neo is Jesus Christ Superstar

Rating: Null/10 (6 November 2003)

OK, I know we all see the Christianity oozing from the final part of this trilogy. I think that's fine and dandy, but the real story here is the continued groundbreaking special effects. They are great and I wonder who is going to up the ante on technological film making after this. I won't watch this repeatedly for the Wachowski's vision of Christian scripture as some will. I'll go to mass for that and get the same thing, sans the special effects. I will watch Revolutions over and over again for what it is: eye candy. One scene in particular stands out; Neo punching Agent Smith in the face in "Bullet-Time." Even the people who dislike this movie MUST admit that was pretty cool!(I actually said out loud, "YEAH!") I went into this film not wanting another huge philisophical statement on religion and oppression, I went to see a cool flick. Mission accomplished!
