kish b ★★½☆☆ The Matrix Revolutions is the exhausting, rain-soaked finale that takes everything bold about Reloaded and mostly drowns it in overlong battles, pretentious monologues, and a desperate attempt to tie up every loose thread with a neon-colored bow. It starts strong: the Trainman sequence is pure nightmare fuel, the Merovingian’s club still drips decadent menace, and Neo’s real-world blindness glowing with golden code is a haunting visual. But once the machines start drilling into Zion, the film turns into a 40-minute war movie that feels like Michael Bay crashed the party—endless sentinels, APU mechs, and explosions that stop being exciting and start feeling numbing. The climactic Neo-Smith supermatch in the pouring rain has a handful of iconic shots (that crater punch, the sky turning green), but it goes on forever and lacks the razor-sharp choreography of the first two films. The philosophy gets clunkier ("The power of the One extends beyond the Matrix…"), Trinity’s death is drawn-out and saccharine, and the final peace treaty between humans and machines lands with all the emotional weight of a PowerPoint slide. Hugo Weaving is still having the time of his life as Super-Smith, and Keanu sells Neo’s quiet sacrifice beautifully, but everyone else feels like they’re just waiting for the credits. Two and a half stars: one for the handful of jaw-dropping visuals and moments of genuine pathos, one for the sheer audacity of ending a groundbreaking trilogy on its own weird terms, and half a star because, despite everything, I still tear up when the Oracle watches that sunrise. It’s messy, overstays its welcome by a solid half-hour, and never quite earns its "full circle" ending. 5/10. The journey was legendary. The destination? A soggy shrug in the rain. ☔💾 Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 11/17/25 Full Review Matt J When I first saw this back when it came out, I was a little disappointed as it felt less Matrix and more robot wars with very little plot development. Watching the garbage that is Resurrections though, has made me appreciate it more because at least it stayed true to the formula. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 11/13/25 Full Review Saul O. Beautiful movie. Action packed but different type of action from the first two movies. Character development is awesome, I loved seeing every character grow into something meaningful. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/08/25 Full Review Chris H Sorry, this is a poor finish. Way too long and the action sequences become boring. The film makes no sense whatsoever, so you feel you don't get any closure; it's just nonsense. Even Agent Smith (the best thing in the film by far) gets a sloppy ending. He deserves better. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 11/07/25 Full Review Alice F Paw patrol is more conceptually, visually and intellectually interesting than this movie What an absolute waste of time and resources. Unfathomable that this movie was allowed to be made in the name of the first Matrix move There’s a total of maybe 15 minutes of dialogue. The rest is just cocomelon for adults; flashing lights, gunshots, yelling. Reads like a 12 year olds fan fiction follow up, if no adult ever touched the script ChatGPT could write a more interesting script. Do not waste 2,5 hours of your life on this. Again, an insult to the matrix and to your intellect Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 11/01/25 Full Review Khaliel P Matrix Revolutions delivers a long and disappointing conclusion to the trilogy, replacing the intelligence and originality of the first film with overuse of CGI and bloated action sequences. The pacing suffers, with a dull first hour of repetitive dialogue and a final act that arrives too late. The story picks up where Reloaded left off, following Neo trapped in limbo, Morpheus and Trinity negotiating with the Merovingian, and a freewheeling Agent Smith preparing his invasion. The climactic battle for Zion, though visually impressive, is weakened by obvious digital effects, and human character development remains minimal. While the film offers spectacle, it fails to provide the emotional and philosophical payoff the trilogy promised, highlighting the pitfalls of splitting one story into two films.
