I saw it tonight also. Since you put the *SPOILER*, I guess we can start.


I have to say: WOW~!!!! The best $7 bucks I've spent in months. Very sad for Trinity. Somewhat unexpected.

The computer graphics were intense and impressive. And gotta give props for the fighting scene and the score fit right in withi the fight.

1) In the end, Neo is dead, right?
2) When Neo first met the Oracle in her home, she pointed on the wooden block above Neo. What did it say?
3) So all the people that Agent Smith killed, they returned back to life? i.e. Oracle

it does leave many questions for a sequel to the trilogy, where @ the same time a NEW story can be told and HOPEFULLY THE PLOT CAN BE XTREMELY BETTER CONSTRUCTED.

I was impressed w/ every matrix movie w/ its action:

The Matrix
That bullet slowing gun shots and huge scene w/ neo and trinity w/ the security guards

The Matrix Reloaded
Neo fighting MANY Smiths and how they used CGI on some of those parts when he used a pole to fight them
Freeway fighting
Morpheus figthing w/ a Ghost program while he's riding shotgun, hehe

The Matrix Revolutions
those guys b4 they enter the club, how they use the ceiling and the walls to move
that 19-minute battle scene and the APU's
those sonic booms and air fighting between Neo and Smith (the sonic booms REALLY impressed me, of how the water made a cloud of the sonic boom)

on a different topic, no 1 has said YES to making a spoiler, so i won't say n e thin yet.

The scene where the Main Machine rised and speaks to Neo was awesome! And loved when the machines were attacking Xion, somehow reminded me Zergs attacking Humans on Starcraft.
The fight scene was more than I expected and enjoyed every second.

I am very satisfied for the whole trilogy of Matrix and thumbs up for the Wachowski brothers.

You want to give a whole summary of Matrix Revolution?
Not yet. I am going to watch it tonight. I'll join you guys on the spoilers.

Why is it that Matrix Revolution received many average/negative feedbacks from the critics? http://movies.yahoo.com/shop?d=hv&id...critic&intl=us

Why is it so difficult to praise or give a positive feedback for a movie.

I was satisfied with the finale of the trilogy because the movie made its point. The war between the machines and the human is over (as it was foretold), Almighty Agent Smith has fallen and Xion is saved.
Did the viewers and the critics expect some kind of a twist in the end or more CGI action?

Matrix Revolution was awesome!! The story completed the trilogy and I wasn't lost throughout the movie.

The ending had that Steven Spielberg touch to it.
IF you haven't seen the movie yet, go do so now.
Now I'm patiently waiting for Lord of the Rings: Return of the King.

Revolution was an action-packed movie. I loved it.

Question-When Neo and Trinity were heading to the Machine world, Neo was able to stop the machines when they were attacking the ship in full force. However, this one scene, this one machine went through the ship and seemed like it went inside Neo's body or did it pass by.
What exactly happened at the moment and did something happen to Neo?

I watched it twice. The introduction of the last battle between Neo and Agent Smith was everything I been waiting for (damn those teasers ) and when the giant machines were invading Xion .
And the scene where Neo and Trinity had to raise their space ship towards, that was very unexpected. I thought there were no sun or clouds in the real world.

I will agree with the fact that this is a great action movie. However, it was a horrible Matrix ending. Both of the movies were horrible Matrix sequels.

Welcome to the forums Ludranian.
I hear that a lot about how terrible the ending was. But what exactly do people want from an ending? A sad ending? More plot? More theories?
Didn't the writers do a good job on wrapping up the story and bringing the movie to a happy end?

Did u guys hear that there is a rumor that says Warners is gonna probably bring the dvd out by January, and that they'r tryin to bring it out b4 Christmas. Just thought i let u guys know a rumor i read
Knox
And i personal thought it was a great movie but sum sence left me scraching my head like when that sentinal goes through Neo, what was that all about? And now that there is peace how r the machines gonna get their energy? Just a few question we all should be thinkin. Still thought it was great even w/all the holes, but to quote the man who once piloted the fallen Nebuchanezzar "what happened, happened and couldn't have happened any other way."

There is "peace" between the machines AND THE HUMANS LIVING IN ZION ONLY. The machines will still get their power from the other humans plugged into the matrix, but the fighting with the humans has stopped. I really DO HOPE that they make a new trilogy of movies that deal w/ fighting in the REAL WORLD.

I too was dissapointed w/ the ending because i thought that the ending was going to bring a FINAL end where either all humans die OR the machines fall. none of that happend, it was just a tie (arguably speaking)
