A Very Wasteful use Of Digital technology

Rating: 2/10 (2 May 2008)

I hope some of those that loved this video game stupidity will excuse me an intellectual and real movie lover. I will be merciful and let it die.
I admit this sort of over done, quasi sci-Fi, something like Star Wars, just isn't my dish.
I didn't watch what are apparently two previous additions of the Matrix.
Now, if I could, I'd like an eight year old to explain it all to me, so at least I could make sense of some conceivable plot. None however is evident, not even a good vs. evil theme.
Here is what I think its about. Somehow the star, Neil of who knows where, is a zonked out subject in some professor's lab that is attempting the merging of real human consciousness with a computer program. This will never happen, but I accept that this is science fiction.
There appears to be good guys, Nieil (Luke Sky Walker) and a Indian woman (grannie) who is an Oracle spouting none sense. There appear to be villains that are really machine clones and dressed like an evil looking Jack Nickelson. OK, so then we see there are flesh and blood people wearing unbecoming ratty sweaters. These people want liberation and the dark machine side wants their extinction.
Now, a machine killing a human is like a human murdering God, because where did these things come from if not human minds.
Oh, well, I guess the major point can be over looked.
There appears after this a lot of very classie special video effects, that must have cost a fortune to produce. OK, and maybe this showing off of how good computers have become in creating virtual back grounds with real actors somehow put in context, is the best aspect of this DVD.
Now, in the end the human's appear to win, but win what. They live in a world less than hell would provide anyway.
I guess I wanted to know if the dude who was running the program with his human brain ever go off the table. I did see that part.
As for deep content or intellectual up lifting, forget it people with IQs bigger than room temperature. Its not there.
