Summary: This trilogy is awesome, but there is more to it than this
Review: If you have seen the Matrix trilogy, you either liked it or you didn't...I thoroughly enjoyed the whole thing, but the movies did lack certain parts of the story...If you felt the same way, I HIGHLY recommend watching the Animatrix and playing through Enter the Matrix...before I saw Animatrix, I was totally confused about who the kid is that adores Neo or how the machines got the way they are...by watching all of the Animatrix movies, I got the answer to both and got to see other people's visions of what can happen in the Matrix...Enter the Matrix really helps you understand more about both the second and third movies...you get to see what caused Ghost's and Naiobe's ship to crash and you get to see how even the Animatrix plays into both the game and the movies...it all really must be seen to get the total experience

Summary: the one that completes everything
Review: Heard many critics, specially those who said the movie is old, without new elements. Take this: LOTR trilogy, no new elements (actually I dont find anything that surprise me in LOTR, I can even tell you how the story is going to end)same stuffs, just like a really long RPG games. LOTR is great film but I cant understand why people love it so much, I watch it once and no more. Matrix on the other hand is a movie that makes me watching it over and over. Maybe its the story depicting how pathetic humans are under the mahines that annoys people.

Maybe Revolution doesnt have as many action fights as Reloaded, but I still love the trilogy (+ Animatrix) and the theme behind it.

many said they dont understand Matrix. Yes the first one maybe a little confusing at first, but watching Reloaded should clear all the confusion.

BTW if someone does no even understand the computer, he/she will not be able to understand the story at all.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Beyond The Expectations
Review: Unusually on the Hollywood standards these trilogy could be the most critized of all time. Let me tell you I don't know why. This movie was the perfect conclusion to a trilogy that has set up new standards on movie making. Since its very beggining to this awsome conclusion. You only need to watch carefully some outstanding scenes like Zion battle and you will see why John Gaeta and the people behind ESC has moved the gates on SFX to the next level. The SuperBrawl was one of its kind. Spider Man 2 and Superman and any other upcoming super heroe film: You better watch you because this fight was a standard. You will be judge by this one.

Do I love the movie? Hell yeah. This is not about a hardcore matrix fan giving an opinion -I AM- this is about the greatest Sci Fi Fantasy of our time.

April. . .come soon. . .I demand it!

Summary: A Great Ending to the Best Trilogy of Our Time
Review: I will just start by saying that the people that say that this movie "disappointed" or "did not meet expectations" are just stupid. They're just upset because they can't figure out what the story is about. The story of the Matrix is very unique and allows us to question humanity and its many fallacies. If I was able to give this movie more than 5 stars, I would do it immediately.

What captivated me about this installment is - obviously - the visuals. Just watching the humans strapped in their APUs battling in a desperate fight to save humanity against millions of machines and watching the Hammer racing towards Zion while warding off Sentinels reminded me of the epic space battles of the "Star Wars" movies. The battle between Neo and Agent Smith easily outdoes their quarrel in the previous movie, as Smith has gained more power inside the Matrix.

I just can't wait for this movie to come out on DVD. Ever since I've seen it in the theater, I've been waiting for it to come out. Although the cover art is my only complaint for this movie, the movie itself will not disappoint. To those who feel this movie was not good: nobody cares what you think.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A strangely satisfying ending
Review: While many people said that this movie introduced nothing new and was nothing more than a poor recap of the first 2 movies, I htought that this was one of the best movies of the year. What people don't realize is that this is a very philosophical movie. Look at Neo and Smith for example. Neo sacrifices himself to rid the martix of Smith. Looking into the bible, it was Christ who sacrificed himself to cleanse the world of sin. Many of the characters have different meanings. The Merovingian for example represents Satan. Watch what button Morpheus presses in the elevator the leads to his club. It says "HELL". Even looking at it from a computer standpoint, Neo let Smith infect him so the machines could lock on and destroy Smith. Thats how a computer destroys a virus. If you haven't seen this movie or the trilogy, watch them. I guarentee if you look into some philosophical books and study some computer procedures you will realize just how brilliant these movies truly are.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: The Wachowski Brothers really drop the ball with this one.
Review: We waited this long for this? A movie that not only does not make a heap of sense but is a major let down in the most profound sense of the word. Its seems to me that the Wachowski Brothers only concentrated on the special effects but forgot about writing a compelling plot to go with it. The mythology that made the first Matrix such a classic is thrown out for an incoherent cyber juke of a story that not only insults the legion of fans but makes them look stupid for waiting around for theses sequels.

The Wachowski Brothers should be a shame of themselves for ripping off the fans of the first movie.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The entity explained
Review: This movie was complained about by people and critics who "use all of the muscles except the one that matter's". It explained every question that needed to be answered and did a hell of a job doing it. The war in zion was by far the most amazing sci-fi war scene ive ever seen, and for those who pay close attention and can figure things out, you will love this movie.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: The Matrix Undone
Review: SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 9, 2003--An incredible bummer of a trilogy capper, "Matrix Revolutions" is driven into the ground by both its grating pretentiousness and its spectacularly weird (and depressing) ending. That the actors are hardly engaging isn't surprising, but the fact that all the fun has been zapped out of a once promising franchise is. There are, however, a few things about the film that I really liked: an exciting battle for Zion, more screen time for the spunky Jada Pinkett and, as if my prayers were answered, less of it for the hammy Laurence Fishburne.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Not bad but could've been a lot better.
Review: The final movie in the Matrix movie series is a flawed and often clumsy finish to a great movie trilogy.

In the final part of the movie series, Neo realizes that he isn't the "Almighty Powerful One" like the "Reloaded" installment movie portrayed him as and Agent Smith has become muhc powerful and dangerous to the future of humanity. The machines are digging ever closer to the underground city of Zion, the last remnants of the human population.

This movie is fun for it's action and special effects but to me, this only felt like just another extension of the "Reloaded" movie which of course is but not to a sense that it was all over and the end result was just nothing but confusion and that there was a lot more to come.

This is a fine movie but I felt that it didn't live up to the first two and I can't help but feel rather dissapointed.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: over-done
Review: Put in simple terms, the last two movies of the Matrix trilogy were warmed-over, pseudo-religious psychobabble which did just about everything wrong to forever taint the first movie's fish-out-of-water element and dazzling effects. I walked out of the theatre with a terrible taste in my mouth caused by the saccharine, fake ending and over-blown effects. Did George Lucas have a hand in these two movies? The grotesque sentinel war at the gates of Zion was just sick: as the machines stood firing at the sentinels pouring in, the Matrix saga was effectively pummeling itself to death.
The only redeemable scenes from these monstrosities was the car chase from "Reloaded" and the rain cinematography of the Smith-Neo fight in this one (the fight itself was rehashed). It seems sad that the last two movies did nothing to answer the millions of questions we had, but rather added more. But ultimately, we could not care less about the answers.
ps. the cover art is HORRIBLE!! I guess they realized that not many people will buy this DVD anyways, so what's the point? What a sad end to a hugely promising sci-fi trilogy. Stick with Lord of the Rings.
