UN FREAKING BELIEVABLE!!!

Rating: Null/10 (5 November 2003)

***POSSIBLE MILD SPOILERS***
I don't know what thee critics were smoking when they saw this, but they're all wrong. This movie is tied with Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers as the most mind-bendingly HUGE EPIC picture we've ever seen.
The film starts off basically where Reloaded ended. The first fifteen minutes are a bit slow. The "Train Man" is really creepy. We are introduced to a "new" oracle in a way that's almost funny in the way they have to make do with Gloria Foster's absence. The new actress playing the Oracle, however, has all the right mannerisms of her predecessor down.
Then, we are thrown into a battle that is grand, epic, and terrifying on a near-cosmic level. The very sight of the unrelenting tide of HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of swarming Sentinels will send you into utter shock and disbelief. It's simply like nothing you have ever seen.
And then it gets better.
Neo, now blind, sees everything machine-related in orange code. Trinity flies the Nebuchadnezzar to the Machine City, where, after telekinetically destroying hundreds of sentinels in an impressive fireworks display, Neo brokers a deal with the Machines. He confronts the Interface, a machine that speaks in a terrifying thunderous voice that literally shakes the floor with bass, and Neo is hooked back into the Matrix. There, Neo and Smith duke it out in the best hand-to-hand combat sequence ever put to film. Their fight results in whole city blocks being leveled, rainfall being sent back up into the sky, and giant impact craters being created.
Throughout the movie there are many Christ references, as you may well know, such as walking on water, the phrase "It is done", etc.
Agent Smith is by far the best villain ever in cinema history. Hugo Weaving deserves an Oscar for his role, this guy can ACT. The Wachowski Brothers should be given a Congressional Medal of Honor for this movie. I cannot stress enough how UN-FREAKING-BELIEVABLE this movie truly is. Go see this on the biggest screen you know of.
9.5/10
