Product Description Shot back-to-back with The Matrix Reloaded, the third and final installment of Andy Wachowski and Larry Wachowski's sci-fi action saga picks up where the second film left off. Neo (Keanu Reeves) remains unconscious in the real world, caught in a mysterious subway station that lies between the machine world and the Matrix, and Bane (Ian Bliss) is still a conduit for Agent Smith (Hugo Weaving), who continues to grow out of control, threatening to destroy both worlds. Meanwhile, as the sentinels get closer and closer to Zion, the citizens of the earth's last inhabited city prepare for the inevitable onslaught. By bargaining with The Merovingian (Lambert Wilson), Trinity (Carrie-Anne Moss) and Morpheus (Laurence Fishburne) are able to free Neo who, after meeting with The Oracle (Mary Alice stepping in for the late Gloria Foster), decides that he must leave Zion and head for the machine mainframe. As Neo and Trinity venture into the dangerous machine world, with hopes of stopping both the machines and Agent Smith, their comrades in Zion attempt to fight off the attacking sentinels with the odds stacked greatly against them. Other cast members returning include Monica Bellucci, Ngai Sing, and Harold Perrineau Jr. Additional Features This two-disc set certainly improves upon the fluffy Reloaded DVD release. Although there's still no Wachowski brothers talking about their creation, there's a lot of good stuff here in the three main segments. We are constantly reminded how long the back-to-back filming schedule was, and it's most interesting to hear from the actors and artists as they come to the end of this long road. When a white rabbit flashes on screen, you can "branch" the most interesting documentary footage: how "bullet time" is being recalibrated and how you go about replicating so many Agent Smiths. A timeline is wonderfully put together, but cumbersome to navigate through. The extras certainly illustrate how the movie did not deserve to be passed over for a few technical Oscar nominations. --Doug Thomas

Taking the Lord's name in vain.
The captain of one of the ships has a real foul mouth taking the Lord's name in vain constantly. Couldn't make it through the film.

Inspired from Bible
This movie is great because it is heavily inspired from Bible. Doomed humanity. Unbeatable enemy. Overwhelming odds. Prophecy for a savior. Savior that goes all the way to his death just to save the others who believe in him.Leave this movie alone and go read Bible, folks. Your battle is still on.

Defeated the purpose of the first movie story
Storywise, it doesn't make sense. The original story was about a group of humans waking up from the matrix and establish a resistance to free other humans from the matrix. (Spoiler Alert) In this movie Neo negotiate a peace treaty with the matrix on behalf of the resistance to keep them alive by offering to kill the bad software (Smith) who took over the Matrix. We know that Neo is the profit who will defeat the AI and free humanity. But this didnt happen. the AI still using the humans to operate and the resistance are still underground. Will NEO eventually destroy the AI and free humans from its control? As a movie production it is very nice specially given the year in which it was made.

Other than a few fight scenes the movie is full of itself
What started off as a great story soon became watered down with easter eggs and bits from every possible source other than Andy Wachowski and Larry Wachowski. The script is filled with holes and inconsistencies and the direction sucks eggs. The few fight scenes become tiresome and the use of CG is terrible in some of the scenes. The characters look like they were rendered on a 8 bit computer.

It's the matrix in 4k
IT's the same old movie, but in 4k with HDR. What else is there to say. Superb imaging and sound. I can't help but watch and enjoy the graphics, while at the same time just imaging how crazy they could have gotten with today's technology.

Amazing if you understand the metaphors
Now I want to preface this review by saying that I am biased towards these films. The acting is not the best, nor is the CGI special effects, nor are the fight scenes. Nevertheless, you have a story filled with metaphors (most of which allude to a biblical context) but can also be compared to how you view society today and even in the past. I believe this final film demonstrates a culmination of the series wonderfully. I cannot be angry simply because it doesn't follow the happily ever format so many seek in films and stories. The original writer (not the Wachovski brothers) did a wonderful job and I believe the directors executed this to the best of their abilities.

Awesome action scenes
The final installment kind of goes off the rails for me a little bit. The mythology and storytelling gets overwhelming. Awesome action scenes, but you go through huge chunks of the movie without the leads and the conclusion is somewhat vague and anticlimactic. Perhaps it's delusional of me, but I was hoping for a happier ending. This is definitely a trilogy where the first one is so incredibly good that it's almost with forgetting that there story continued, but it's by no means a horrible film.

watered down
Trinity almost dying 3 or 4 times (I lost count) and then finally dying lost its affect. It was almost a relief when it finally happened. Terrible B story. A story was not any better. If they can redo Spiderman a hundred times, maybe they can redo the Matrix sequel 1 time in the manner its worthy of.

Trilogyitus Is Only Just Overted
The final movie in The Matrix series picks up straight from the end of Matrix Reloaded. There are two main special effect scenes in this movie. The first is where the machines invade Zion and the humans battle them in the Aliens style walkers. The second is the battle between Nea and Smith which is drawn out for about 5 minutes longer then it should have been. The rest of the movie is about wrapping things up and for the most part it does it pretty well.Revolutions is much better the Reloaded. The effects are better the story is better mainly because the writers new what was left to do. The main complaint with Revolutions is there is not a great deal of time spent in the actual Matrix. Most of the action is in Zion most of the conversations happen on board various vessels. It is as if they save the Matrix for the last battle and it must be protected before then. One more annoying thing in this movie is Trinity's death at the cinema it annoyed me on blu ray it was worse because it takes her so long to die. It would be like Yoda spilling everything he ever said before he died in Return Of The Jedi. The whole Smith being in the real world wears thin quickly but he is dismissed by a blined Neo who now has the same powers in the real world as he does in The Matrix don't know where that comes from but it seems to work.In closing this is a pretty good movie. It does what the final part of any trilogy should do tie up loose ends and go out on a high. Could it have been better ? Yes but not by much. I still think that Reloaded and Revolutions should have been one 3hour movie. But this does well for itself. It ends most story arcs and leaves it open for more in the future.

Back on form for the revolution
At last, a worthy successor for the original film. After the disappointment of the last film in the series it was hoped that this one could live up to the original and thankfully this film does. Starting with Neo in a coma and Zion under siege from the machine army, the film returns to the correct mix of storyline and action that saw the first film become so popular. Unfortunately the acting hasn’t improved much but that doesn’t spoil the film much and the CGI is improved dramatically from the last film. Although the ending is slightly anticlimactic and it still isn’t as good as the original, it is still a good sequel.
