Rating: 1/10 (14 November 2003)

***SPOILERS*** ***SPOILERS*** This is nothing but a boring war movie. Which is fine if you like mindless action flicks but the original Matrix had a fascinating plot to go along with the action scenes, which were amazing in themselves. Reloaded was somewhat interesting in how it redefined what the matrix really was, but I really can't say there was anything good about this movie. As for the ending, maybe it makes sense, probably it doesn't, but essentially I don't care enough to figure out what it means. (spoiler ahead) And as for the machines and humans coming to a truce, that's just dumb. Weren't the machines harvesting the humans for power? So why would they give that up just because Neo defeated Smith? The architect at the end seems to imply that reneging on a deal is a human trait. Personally I think that emotionless machines would be much more inclined to do that, especially since they obviously could have utterly destroyed Zion. So, to rate the three movies:
Matrix: 10/10
Reloaded: 3/10
Revolutions: 0/10
