Total Posts: 958 | If you saw the movie, please post what you thought. btw, i have some SPOILERS
I thought...
too predictable
philosophy seemed to get worse (and more boring) as the trilogy went on
Smith vs. Neo fight was kind of boring...burly brawl from second one was better, the special effects used weren't that impressive
any "martial arts"-style fights were too short to actually amount to anything
gun fights were mostly boring
love story was so boring (even as a guy a few love stories are interesting)
I didn't like ending too much (on the other hand, at least the wa-whatever brothers didn't make it all ambiguous and leave much room for another matrix movie)
good
battle for Zion (favorite part)
Neo destroying machines by putting out his hand (the Force anyone?)
I think they should have brought back more bullet dodging in reloaded/revolutions from the original, even if it's not so new anymore, it would still have been cool to see some. |

Last fifteen minutes- sucked.
Trninty's death scene- sucked.
Final fight scene with Neo and Smith- sucked.
Fight for Zion- pretty good. |

Total Posts: 260 | I'm a fan of the Matrix, and even I was somewhat disapointed. I have seen it twice: once at a normal theater, and once more on iMAX. I still can't figure everything out. This movie was supposed to answer all questions, which apparently was a false promise.
Also, the scene of Trinity dying was lame. Just plain terrible.
One thing I wanted to see was the Oracle's shell fight Smith to the bitter end. That would have been great to see; but no - we got gypped and had to assume his end.
I was also disapointed about the Frenchman, they never really told us who he was, and quite frankly the trainman thing was overly preditable and rediculous.
There were some good scenes in there, but a lot of is was lame, predictable, and just plain hokey. |

Total Posts: 170 | I think the Matrix was a good idea, but then they got carried away with the next two just to attract the action fans. The first movie will always be my favorite.
A couple of friends and I were wondering how Trinity could've survived that long. She's been impaled in several places, yet she takes ten minutes to get the point across that she loves Neo and that she wants a final kiss. I thought that Neo's alternate sight thing was pretty cool, though.
The blood level/quantity also rose for each movie, especially for this final one. I thought the Zion leader dude (why can't I remember his name...) was going to be more...uh...chopped up than he was. Gotta have the suspense with the kid running around, right? I completely forgot about the vampire twin brothers, and I'm kinda glad they weren't in it. Just more people chasing after the same guys. The end was a little odd, too.
Anyone notice the inconsistencies? When Bane had the knife on Trinity's throat, the first time there was blood on her neck just below the knife. Next scene, no blood. Next scene, blood. etc. Then there was Merovingian's (Frenchman's) cravat that kept doing the same thing. There, not there, there, not there.
Anyone ever see the WCSH Channel 6 version of a Matrix preview? Kinda funny and stupid...here's the link:WCSH 6 Matrix
