it was the end. please

Rating: Null/10 (7 November 2003)

when me and my brother came out of the matrix revolutions, he said to me "the worrying thing is that its been left open for another one, its not been resolved fully". when the matrix one came out and neo realised he was the one and the film ended with him flying away to the tune of rage against the machine, we all assumed i think that he was going to go on and stop the war. however the makers decided that due to the huge commercial success the original enjoyed it could be turned into a trilogy. reloaded's part in the trilogy was easy to create, as the middle of any story is where the freedom lies and the chance to broaden the story, however revolutions suffered because the film had been broadened to such an extent that it had become impossible to tie all the strands together and leave a resolution that sat well, incidentally resolutions is a fair bet i'd guess if they do decide to bring out a forth. the film itself did have a few enjoyable scenes, the APU's versus Sentinel war in zion being the most notable, but overall the film struggled to live up to its predecessors, and certainly didn't conclude in the institutionalised way (eutopian equilibrium). but there are enough visuals to enjoy the film, just not necessarily enough for matrix geeks like myself to be fully satisfied.
