Summary: Tremendous Disappointment
Review: I considered myself a huge Matrix fan. I watched the first one at least 15 times. Considered it the best movie I ever saw. I could not wait for the sequels to come out. Actually counting down the months until they were out. And boy was I disappointed. Reloaded was passable but Revolutions totally sucked. One of the worst movies I ever saw in my life. I went into this expecting one of the greatest conclusions ever and a great movie also. Both were horrible. The story in the first Matrix was awesome. Well written and did not need the crutch of special effects to carry it. Although the effects were great. Revolutions was a snore fest from the first scene. Way too long fight scenes did not help. You can only get hit so many times with no reaction. I could not wait for them to end. Plus the killed off Trinity. So you know some how this movie was doomed. And yes it was. What do you call that ending. The machines just stop fighting, continue to exist and rely on humans to exist. I thought the idea of the humans rebellion from Zion is to free the people. But apparently the Wachowski saw how many suckers there are and might try to do a 4th movie when the people actually are freed. DO NOT BUY THIS DVD. GO rent it. I wanted to like this movie the entire thing sucked. Nothing to like about it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great end to the best trilogy ever
Review: No words can describe my love for these movies. This is the perfect end to the perfect trilogy. The critics may hate it, but they are supposed to, these movies are extremely anti-hollywood. Just watch it and you will see, it is amazing.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great Ending to One of the Best Trilogies Ever!!!
Review: The Matrix Revolutions is one of my favorite movies. I think it is as good, if not better than Reloaded. The man vs. machine war is awesome. Neo fighting Smith is also way cool. The features on disc 2 are great. You get a sneak preview at The Matrix Online PC game, and the evolution of bullet time. There are also trailers for The Matrix, Reloaded, Revolutions, and Animatrix. In conclusion, the Matrix Revolutions a great movie with superb special effects. I recommend it to anyone interested in the Matrix, or sci-fi in general.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Critics dont know crap, its the audience that counts
Review: Revolutions was as amazing as ever, music and action, SFX and all. Especially the intensities of the battles and scenes. Jam packed with intense action weather it was bullet time or not i couldnt help but feel like i was part of it. :-) I absolutly love the sound tracks pale 3, juno reactor vrs rob dougan. This movie will never be forgotten in the hearts and minds of fans everywhere and as for hell boy..please..that movie was no where near the original break through matrix. It was rather pathetic. Anyway the matrix trilogy will continue to rock on you put your hearts and souls and energy into it and you know it will continue . Rock on wachowski brothers and freinds!

Summary: Extreme Disapointment
Review: A disappointing end to a promising series. Since I own and enjoy the 1st two, I'll buy this piece of jumbled trash but unlike the others I'll wait until I find it dirt cheap. They should be selling it at cost to pay us back for the money we spent at the theatre

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: At least its over
Review: Well what can I say. The consept I guess is good, definatly original. But... What about the characters from the second movie, the two ghost dudes, and who is the guy that runs the subway train to the "Place in the middle" of the matrix and the real world. Neo is not even around for most of the movie, then he gets his eyes fried, but of course he can still see. The battle for Zion is cool, it is what makes the movie worth watching. But as for story development, it sucks. I thought they would explain more of how Neo got his powers, I mean they basicaly make him a God. I guess I expected much more from a franchise boasting as much as the Matrix trilogy has. It seems as if nothing from the second movie even made it to the third. Maybe they should have made four movies. Bottom line is its worth watching to finish off the trilogy, but not near as good as the potential that the franchise started of with. The first Matrix is still the best.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: ZOD!!!!!!
Review: That was all I could think of while watching the last hour of this goddamn awful movie. That and wow how will Goku get out of this one. I bet Frieza oops Agent Smith isn't really dead yet. Oh, and the DVD may have some neato features but I refuse to pay any more money to find out what they are.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Not bad for effects..
Review: The story is TOO zen....all about "balance" and not enough "substance". I find the end VERY lacking and Morpheous now takes a back seat??? This is good for the "special effects" junkie but as far as the storyline goes, We already have a Luke Skywalker using the force we don't need Neo doing the same?? I find this end lacking in many ways..the original was the best, Reloaded was O.K but this one stomped on the flag.....I understand many liked it because they are spoon fed by hollywood but the true fans of the original will see the word "hollywood sellout" all over this film. The first film should have been a stand alone film. However, as a completist most will want to own all three films.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Revolutions, the great clarifier
Review: I continue to see reviews that basically say, 'The Matrix made sense up til this movie.' Truthfully this movie is deep and full of hidden meaning, but if you saw, and paid attention, to the first two, then this great final piece should have brought it all together for you.

For years, the Oracle had been providing clues to Neo about what it would take to save Zion and end the war, but she could not come right out and draw him a picture. He had to make the choice and evolve into a program that really understood his purpose, and a human ready to give all. It was all about "choice." All the prior Neos had been forced, which led to the repeated destruction of Zion. Choice was the difference-maker.

Until I saw Revolutions I did not realize that the Oracle was also wanting Neo to see that she and he both would be needed to acheive an ending that would be different than all the prior Neos acheived. When Smith assimilated the Oracles code, he was quite proud of himself, in his own evil way, but little did he know, he had just provided one more piece of the prophecy that would be his doom.

It all came together when I heard the Oracles words, "everything that has a beginning, has an end," come out of Smith before he assimilated Neo's code and then was himself deleted. When I saw the Oracles body laying in that pool of water I said "aha," The entire prophesy was true, and she and Neo, the program she had been trying to help perfect for a long time, had acheived what none before had. Very deep stuff, but I keep recalling all the times when the Oracle was referred to as "a guide."

I gave this movie 5 stars because not only was it a very satisfying ending to the Matrix triology, but it is also a bonanza of action and genuine visual excitement. Great DVD.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Better than expected, a satisfying end to the trilogy
Review: Despite what many fans think and what you may have heard, The Matrix Revolutions; the third and final (?) film in the Matrix trilogy sends the series off with a bang as opposed to the whimper that many expected. First off, Revolutions is much better and more satisfying than Matrix Reloaded, and the CGI effects are better as well. Picking up right where Reloaded left off, Neo (Keanu Reeves) finds himself trapped between the real world and the artificial world of the Matrix while the war between man and machine rages on both fronts as the people of Zion defend the city against the endless swarms of sentinels and the multiplying Agent Smith (Hugo Weaving) grows more powerful in the world of the Matrix. There aren't as many jaw dropping action scenes (until the film's climax) that populated the previous two films, but the battle for Zion and the ultra epic Super Burly Brawl in which Neo and Smith fight for the final time are marvels of modern movie magic. As a whole however, just like Reloaded, Revolutions just can't live up to the awe of the original film. And as much as I like the two later entries of the series, I can't help but think that there never should have been a Matrix trilogy. When we saw Neo fly towards the sky at the end of the first film, that should have been it, but naturally Warner Bros. knows how to milk a good thing dry. The DVD itself is much better on features than the disappointing Reloaded two disc set; with featurettes that are actually worth watching. However, there is yet again no commentary at all. I guess co-directors/writers Andy and Larry Wachowski are too busy counting their money.
