Probably the weakest of the Matrix trilogy, Revolutions tries to tie up the loose ends from the previous two instalments. While the effects are at least as good as the original, the story weakens and overall the film is less satisfying.
It is not worth watching unless you've seen both The Matrix and The Matrix Reloaded.
I had the pleasure of watching this final instalment in the Matrix trilogy in an empty cinema. After the disappointment of the second film, Revolutions more than exceeded my expectations and in a convoluted way, provided a fitting end to the whole experience. For me the whole thing came full circle, almost ushering me into a state or nirvana. The critics haven't been kind now or even upon release about Revolutions. As a standalone film I'll admit if fails badly with a fractured plot and enough philosophy to educate a class for a term yet as an ending its marvellous. As with the other Matrix films on blu ray, this is a smashing transfer and the soundtrack should come with a warning to all neighbours.
The second best of the trilogy, the first being the best. I was completely drawn in to the feeling of helplessness after an epic battle which does not ease up at all. I enjoyed the battle scenes immensely. Some of the Star Wars type mega-committees were a bit dull and the walking with elders I could have done without but the machine world was amazing.
