Has anyone seen or is planning on seeing the finale to the Matrix Trilogy? I'm planning to see it this weekend with my friends. The Matrix is one of my all-time favorite movies (I didn't really like the 2nd one though).

By the way, anyone whose seen the movie, be sure to use spoiler tags. Thanks.

Saw it just now. An...interesting way to end the trilogy to say the least.

I don't know about you, but I disliked the Matrix. I was bored half to sleep in just about every scene after Neo went to the Matrix except when he dodged the bullets. That was cool, but now it's been used in just about every single movie or cartoon (The Simpsons, Osmosis Jones, Shrek). The second one was pure crap.

The second one was pretty crap plotwise. They tried to cover it up by adding in ****loads of special effects and a pseudo-intellectual talking out of his ass and rambling on about something that made absolutely no sense to someone who could actually understand the big words. But that didn't manage to cut it for me.

The first Matrix movie was brilliant, but the second one was far from it, and my friends who've seen Revolutions have told me that it sucks. I guess I'll see it just to see what happens at the end.

BTW, what the hell's the point of fighting back anyway? Frankly, if I was given a choice between the Matrix and the real world, I would choose the Matrix without a second's hesitation.

I liked it, but it wasn't as good as first one. I thought the Zion scene was amazing. As well as the Neo VS Agent Smith scene. I think they put more work into Revolutions then into Reloaded though...

After seeing that movie, I can only ask "why oh why didn't I take the BLUE pill."

What a shoddy, thrown together ending to what should have been a great trilogy that could rival star wars.

I was satisfied. It was no Star Wars, but it was cool.

You're kidding, right? That ending was terrible. I've seen fanfics that have better resolutions.

I've heard many times now that it isn't worth seeing, but I'm still looking forward to it on Saturday.

Hmmmm... I found the second one to inspire philosophical ideas. I'll see Revolutions some time next week

Revolutions kicked major ass. I used to think that The Matrix was overrated as hell until I saw this movie.
