I gave it a six. Even though there was great action and effects, they were only in the Matrix for the beginning and end. The part with Neo being trapped in the train station wasn't needed at all, except I guess to introduce Sati. The part with Trinity at the Merovingian's club was kinda rushed. They should have had more to do with Neo in the station, other than Trinity just arriving on the train and hugging him. And the part with Trinity, they shouldn'y have killed her off like that. They kept dragging it out, and she kept saying the same thing. Hopefully in The Matrix Online, Neo will be a program or something and we'll get to see him.

Yeah, the first one was great, and the last half of the second one was awesome, but this one was disappointing.

1 word for you guys..........Mediocre......this movie was AVERAGE, reloaded was better as was matrix 1....revo = disney happy green fields ending...not cool...also, it felt like one scene was moving to the next so quickly, that it wasnt even worth having some scenes...
I really liked how just in reloaded this movie took on it's own style to the trilogy. Each movie holds it's own style. Not only in action, but in story as well The first of course gave us the story, and ended with a mind blowing scene that the whole movie hinted to. The second took everything from the orginal and multiplied it by a 100. The first movie was both gritty and sleak. Reloaded was more of just sleak clean movie that was more of an opera with dialogue, beatifull fighting and extreme plot twists.
Now to revolutions. Revolutions was brilliant because it diddnt focus on feeding you with more explanations and plot presentation. It told you what you needed to know, then it focused the rest of the movie on suspense and took on a dark, straight to the point style. It also kept it's trademark style from the previous films. I gave it an 8. It was great it kept great pace. However the ending even though it was shocking, it was still a bit anti climactic. It left a lot to be questioned and answered aswell. I believe if revolutions is well recieved, and gets alot of positive fan response. We will see another matrix movie. I doubt it will do aswell as reloaded though

At this point, 19 people voted a 10. Doesnt that mean that this movie couldnt possibly be any better? Some of you people were obviously hi on something when watching this movie. No room for improvement in this.. lol Wake up people, and stop voting 10 because you were dazzled by computer animation.
Right, this is just going to be a short one before I go to school.
One word for The Matrix Revolutions: whoa.
It's one of the best movies I've seen in my whole life. Amazing special effects, battle scenes that took my breath away (literally), one of the most amazing final fights I have ever seen... it was an amazing experience, and the lucky sods who're seeing this at IMAXes, I envy you so very much. The ending was not what I first expected; it charmed and upset me at the same time.
I can understand why people wouldn't like it; the huge battle scenes 'keeping away from Neo' - perhaps people expected a lot of philosophical shebang again. It's definately a pleaser for animé fans though! I have to say I'm pretty much lost for words over this movie. It takes a while for you to take it all in. So, all I can really say that will even begin to equal what I felt after seeing it last night...
No it wasnt computer animation. It was the story that was assisted with computer animation that everyone loves. If you actually watch the amtrix movies you will see that the movie doesnt rely on CGI. I know it couldnt have been done without it. But unlike every other action movie. The action in the matrix rely's on the story, instead of the story relying on the action.

Wow, I would almost feel dissed by this if I HADNT seen the first Matrix about 20 times, Reloaded about 10, and seen Revolutions this morning. I think Im qualified to say that the great STORY you speak of ended with a phonecall to the machines in M1. After that its a hysterical mess, they had a chance to really make people think about what life is all about, and they dropped the ball.
The story diddnt end with a phone call. It ended Neo's discovery in becomming The one. It left a gapping door for a sequal. So that door was entered. It started a whole new story. The hysterical mess you claim it to be turned out to be beautifull cinematic history. MAking people think about what life is really about isnt there job, and wasnt tehre intentions. They had a story they wanted to tell. They told it perfectly. reloaded and revolutions was made with fans in mind, this is one reason they were filmed back to back. They did indeed give a story to make people think though. The way they presented the story is very thought provoking. The plot of this movie is very simple, however they mixed several philosophies and different beliefs into how they presented it.This was done not only to give the movie a substance.

Maybe Seraph used to be a super enforcer or a follower of the architect (Jesus) then he discovered the architect is a lamer then sided with the oracle (Satan)
I gave it a 7. It was defitnely better than average (5) but its not as good as the previous 2 (imho.) As i've stated elsewhere i hope its a grower and rewards more viewings. It certainly felt like that. Maybe in a years time i'll look back and say "i can't believe i only gave that a 7."
Who knows?

This is just a simple post to give my opinion on the Revos.
I would hope othere will follow suit and JUST post their opinions and reactions to others opinions this way its in one thread and everyone doesnt have to trapse through all the threads!
NB. i dont know if this has been done yet if so i apologise!
I thought revo was awesome, obviously not as amazing as M1 and certainly less supressing as M2! Altho the diologue was very forced and very unprecise, unlike in the original! The plot was well driven and gave good stead to anyone watchin the film, i thought the superbrawl suffered from too much repitition, altho the close up of Neo punching smiths face was incomprehensibly brilliant. The progression of the movie was strong, the scenes of the Zion 'war' were at times to long but still visually imprssive, the. And Neo's transition to uber-messiah, literally raising his hand to everything was classic, and the ending i think fater proper dvd analysis will be learnt and loved if not liked. I believe that the film has stood up for the legacy a trilogy should have, a strong begining, a motivated middle and a finishing end. I would have liked to of seen morpheus do a 'Neo Style, End of M1' phone call, tying up the sequel, but if i was hoping; i would say the W Bros have got something planned!
I saw it twice on the same day back to back!- Thats all im saying on the subject for now- enjoy!

You move to an area and you multiply and multiply until every natural resource is consumed and the only way you can survive is to spread to another area. There is another organism on this planet that follows the same pattern. Do you know what it is? A virus. Human beings are a disease, a cancer of this planet. You are a plague.
And we are... the cure.
There exists a thread for Rating Revolutions along with a poll.
Let's take the reviews there, okay?
