  Tops of heads cut off-
  
  I don't know if it's just these DVD's (2nd & 3rd sequels)or if it is the intent of the director but, in 90% of the scenes with headshots, the tops of the heads are cut off. Haven't watched our old Matrix DVD to see if it's the same way yet. It's weird and I don't like it but, since we'll only watch them once a year at most and they were cheap.....I don't care I guess.

  Could have been better
  
  I won't go into detail, since others have taken care of that. I'll just say I'd have been a lot happier with this finale if Morpheus hadn't been whittled down to a lame, near-cameo role. The inscrutable guru of movie one is just barely more than a flunky here. He's also put on a lot of weight (but that doesn't stop Travolta). It just doesn't cohere as well as it might if the characters had more continuity. Neo, Smith and Trinity are all understandable, but Niobe seems to have been stuck in there mainly to replace Morpheus. What happened? The ending is more satisfying, tho.

  Great end to the trilogy, ....... or is it?
  
  Keanu is not given a majority of time in this movie, but there's plenty of great action! It all winds down to a satisfactory ending, but there's something about it that just makes me wonder if it's really over.....

  Everything that has a Beginning, has an End
  
  The stunning conclusion to the Wachowski brothers "Matrix" trilogy comes to life. Highly controversial at it's release, the film has since never quite redeemed itself in eyes of the fans of the series. As a side note, this film might recieve better reception as time goes on, much like "Alien 3" although this is simply speculation.
  
  The film begins almost the second its predecessor ended, Neo is unconcious, with the he's-got-to-be-up-to-no-good Bane lying right beside him. The film almost immediately throws itself back into the computer world with the revelation that the Morovingian isn't quite done with our leather-clad heroes yet.
  
  One of the most interesting aspects of the film is the extended focus on the people of Zion. It frequently breaks away from the main characters to focus on the less developed ones which were introduced in the previous movie. While the ominous buzzing of the machines comes ever closer, the people of Zion prepare for what they know will be their final battle. I particularly liked the development of Kid, a character only breifly touched upon in "Reloaded" gets a nice portion of the spotlight while defending Zion.
  
  While humans and machines clash, Morpheus, Niobe and their crew come to aid in the battle at their home. Niobe's character undergoes much development during this period, proving her loyalty to the human race.
  
  One of the films only weaknesses is the lack of focus on Neo and Trinity, who are completely absent for a large portion of the film. Their characters never really undergo any development, with the exception of an extremely powerful sequence toward the end.
  
  The reason that Revolutions, in my mind, was a success was because of the ending. The Wachowski brothers don't waste time showing what occurs afterwards, they simply end the story, telling it the way they wanted to tell it. This is one of the things I really like about the brothers, they don't sell out on their vision and let the filmmaking norms taking over their story. They tell their story, not the story that the audience EXPECTS or WANTS to see, but the story THEY want to tell, which is what filmmaking is really about.
  
  If you are a die-hard fan of the Matrix or just a person who has a tendancy to like deeply misunderstood movies, watch this.
  
  9/10 stars

  This is a perfect example of Capitalism.
  
  What does Capitalism have to do with rating a movie? lets be real the first and origiinal movie the Matrix was excellent, if it was ended there we would all be still talking about! what is the Mtarix, however hollywood is about maximising profits, why not see how deep into your pockets we can go! they bring sub- stories and plot with only one thing in mind to confuse! i will not comment no more on this movie, i feel that most of you people don't really care what you watch as long as everyone is watching it too. This movie assinated this series completely and that is good. laterz folks.
