We finally made it through it

Rating: 5/10 (8 November 2003)

Yesterday, I went to see the last third of the Matrix trilogy, only to finally know, how it would end. I already was disappointed by the second one with its loads of special effects, fighting scenes and so little of storytelling that I was looking at my wrist watch after two hours and I had to realize, that only 40 minutes had passed. It was quite the same with "Revolutions". Of course, the special effects are awesome again, but there was nothing we hadn't seen in the two films before. And if you are only interested in great special effects, you get a lot more of it in "Reloaded". Seems like every idea the directors had in mind was realized in part two, so only a few ones remained for the third one. And the story is confusing for everybody who doesn't remember all details from "Reloaded", so you feel like being shot on a rocket into the middle of the scenery. To me the movie feels like walking through a gallery of modern art which wants to be visually impressive but is made without any inspiration. Talking that walk is a boring experience.
