Despite the inevitable law of diminishing returns, The Matrix Revolutions is quite satisfying as an adrenalized action epic, marking yet another milestone in the exponential evolution of computer-generated special effects. That may not be enough to satisfy hardcore Matrix fans who turned the Wachowski Brothers' hacker mythology into a quasi-religious pop-cultural phenomenon, but there's no denying that the trilogy goes out with a cosmic bang instead of the whimper that many expected. Picking up precisely where The Matrix Reloaded left off, this 130-minute finale finds Neo (Keanu Reeves) at a virtual junction, defending the besieged human enclave of Zion by confronting the attacking machines on their home turf, while humans combat swarms of tentacled mechanical sentinels as Zion's fate lies in the balance. It all amounts to a blaze of CGI glory, devoid of all but the shallowest emotions, and so full of metaphysical hokum that the trilogy's detractors can gloat with I-told-you-so sarcasm. And yet, Revolutions still succeeds as a slick, exciting hybrid of cinema and video game, operating by its own internal logic with enough forward momentum to make the whole trilogy seem like a thrilling, magnificent dream. -- Jeff Shannon

The first installment of the trilogy deals with birth or rebirth. The second deals with life or what we make of life and our choices. The third installment deals with death or our own and mortality; it looks like Neo or anybody involved will never become that creature that walks upon three.
It looks like Neo (Keanu Reeves) is going to have to make some Neolithic choices. While the people of Zion prepare for their eminent, annihilation Neo not knowing what the larger picture is the stress his instincts and search for a better solution.
For those people that are not interested in the big solution. We have plenty of action and agent Smith running amok or several moks are not only threatening mankind, but the matrix itself, and even more. It is threatening the machine world.
At one point, Neo finds himself in a subway station which they collect train station, between two worlds; I think that it would have been more dramatic if they had called this construct "The Waiting Room" as that's what they were called in days of old.
The Blu-ray version has all the standard extras including voiceovers picture is a picture and the initial advertisements; most of these extras repeat themselves in other extras.

Alas,all good things must come to an end.Revolutions is the third and final chapter in the Matrix trilogy.With the machines mere hours from breaching mankind's last defence,Neo and his comrades must destroy the system and end the war or face extinction.Though not as thought provoking as the first film,Revolutions finally serves up some answers and delivers some truly epic scenes of all-out war.As many sequals go,combat is mostly CG driven and the plot and story seem rushed and might leave some viewers confused.While it is true that none of the sequals can ever match the originality and entertainment factor of the first Matrix film,Revolutions does provide that finality which fans have been yearning for all these years.A wise woman once said,"everything that has a beginning has an end," and through both victory and sacrifice,Revolutions delivers a fitting conclusion to this great trilogy.

After being so disappointed/confused with "The Matrix Reloaded" after seeing it in the theater in 2003, I didn't even see this film on the big screen when it came out, instead renting it once it came out on home video. After viewing, I realized that I missed the wrong Matrix film to skip for a long period of time.
Whereas "Revolutions" does not come close to the first film in duplicating the originality of the idea, it superbly triumphs the sub-par second film by eliminating much of the philosophical mumbo-jumbo and instead focus on a plot that the average viewer has a chance to understand.
Essentially, two things happen during the course of this film (I liken it to the Lord of the Rings series, where Frodo/Sam do their thing while the rest of Middle Earth fights Sauron): First, the city of Zion braces for (and eventually does engage) the approach machine army. The special effects in the war scenes are pretty incredible...not anything we haven't seen before, but not even as close to as faky as those in "Reloaded". The other plotline sees Neo and Trinity traveling deep into the heart of Machine City, where Neo ultimately has his final confrontation with the seemingly unstoppably Agent Smith. That final showdown is so intense (and so awaited) that it will raise the hairs on the back of your neck!
Overall, then, this film falls somewhere in between the originality of the first installment of the trilogy and the over-the-top sequel. Upon ... Read More

You'll only want to buy The Matrix Revolutions to see how the story ends. There's nothing new here, and the story is so diluted it gets boring. Not worth a second viewing. Still, I give it three stars because of the story behind the entire series. This movie itself only deserves two stars.

"The Matrix Revolutions", the last in the Wachowski brothers' super sci-fi trilogy, is a mixed bag of criticism. Most of us already know what everybody else thinks based upon the surprisingly low opening weekend box office of $48.5 million that the film barely scraped, a direct reflection upon the consensus of the "Matrix Reloaded" back in May of `03. That's right, folks - for those who were disappointed with "Reloaded", "Revolutions" will only upset your expectations even further. For those who eat up every fat morsel that the film industry serves up piping hot from the griddle of hype (the teaser trailers in combination with the cheeky Powerade TV ads), you'll love it pound for gluttonous pound.
The remainder of this now flaccid storyline has Zion up crap creek without a paddle, their firepower no match for the hundreds upon thousands of Sentinels about to breach the core of the city. There is something afoot in the Matrix as well - the malicious Agent Smith (Weaving) has proliferated himself throughout the entire system and is more than prepared for a final confrontation with Neo (Reeves). However, Neo is preoccupied with what measures must be taken to ensure the safety and survival of Zion whilst Trinity (Moss) ever-faithfully prepares herself to accompany him on his most perilous mission yet.
As exciting as this apocalyptic final chapter sounds, you know you've lost something when the story completely overwhelms the characters. Neo, Trinity ... Read More
