Review: The Matrix Revolutions
A masteripiece? Undoubtedly, no. But Revolutions was still entertaining and I felt it was a good end to the series.
Critics bashed it. People said it was the worst in the series. With that in mind, I went to see the film with low expectations. At the end, as the credits started, I couldn’t help but feel satisfied. I thought it was a good end to everything.
I think the reason people didn’t like it was because many questions they had weren’t given definite answers. A lot of things are left for interpretation. Many of the events in Revolutions were left unexplained: How Neo was able reach the place in between the Matrix and the machine world without being jacked in, how was Neo able to see the machines and have some form of control over them. I think it was intended to leave some sort of uncertainty, so that we would question it and come up with our own answers. Everyone knows the Matrix puts in a lot of philosophical and religious themes. The art of philosophy is questioning and developing your own answers, and I think the series wanted you to do that. Of course, many people don’t want to spend the time in deep thought about a movie that’s supposed to be action. And that could be a big part why I loved the entire Matrix series, and many others wish it had ended with the first. I have my own explanations about most aspects of the series, but I will save that for another day as it will be spoiler filled. Here is a thread with a long explanation of everything by some guy. It brings a lot of interesting theories, although I don’t agree with all of it. Reminder: spoilers.
So if you leave out all the “deep meanings” and philosophical stuff, you still get left with a decent action movie. The long winded dialogues akin to the Architect are left behind for long action filled scenes. Most of the action takes place in the real world. The main sequence would be the machine attack on the dock of Zion. The humans are armed with Mechwarrior-like armored units that gun down the sentinels left and right. The entire sequence is certainly a technical achievement. There’s also a sequence where Niobe (Jada Pinkett-Smith) navigates a ship through a narrow tunnel to get back to Zion. It was very reminiscent of the escape from Death Star II in Return of the Jedi. Within the Matrix, there was a big fight between Smith and Neo in the rain. I thought it was an excellent fight and the music with it was awesome. It was certainly a more cinematic and epic fight than the “burly brawl” with hundreds of Smiths in Reloaded. The CG was also less distracting than the one in Reloaded. A lot of people have suggested the battle was a rip off of a certain well known anime series, but I just thought of it more of an epic superhero fight.
Once again, Hugo Weaving stole the show performance wise. He’s certainly been one of my favorite villains of late. Ian Bliss who played Bane also made a great impersonation of Agent Smith.
But Revolutions is not without flaws. A certain character took way too long to say “goodbye”. I was a little disappointed that many of the characters had little part in this one. Namely, Merovingian, Persephone, and even Morpheus had very little of a role. Again, there were many questions left without concrete answers. There was a short shootout scene that felt a little uninspired. I was disappointed they had Trinity do the same kick and wall flip she did in the first film. Would’ve been nice to see some new moves.
All in all, I thought the series came to a great close. I enjoyed Reloaded for the hints and questions it presented and the theory games I had played with them. I enjoyed Revolutions for some of the answers and a resolution, and still leaving me with things I can answer myself. None of the films live up to the first one, which I thought was near perfect, but all together worked okay. Don’t let critics’ opinions turn you away from this one. What I can be sure of is that many people will argue about this one.
