Yesterday, when Revolutions came out, we learned about matrixes (matrices) in Algebra. What a coincidence, wouldn't ya say?

Saw the matinee today. Thought it was ok, but nowhere near as great as the first...but it was still better than reloaded. The scene where the one captain is fighting for all of zion alone for 20 minutes had me cheering in the theatre. Smith was again the best, his rant on love was priceless. The dialogue still kinda sucked, but that's plagued all the matrix movies, Keanu Reeves still can't act to save his life, but the action makes up for it. The explanation seemed kind of rushed at the end, but I guess they didn't want the movie to go another 30 minutes. I'd give it a 6/10.

The final fight in the rain reminded me so much of DBZ. Least I know they can pull the real people movie off now

Just got back from seeing it... I actually liked it a lot. I think it ended the series very well.

How did Smith taking over neo kill him? Did Neo actually die? Did anyone else think that it was a awesome movie excetp for the very last sceen? Was that really the end, cause it sort of sounded like they were really trying to leave it open for a fourth with the neither machine or humans really winning the war.

The head machine unplugged Neo as soon as Smith took over him, killing Neo and the entity of Smith.

well reloaded was better in a sence of physical fighting. revoltuion is more machine based, and some what ties up the loose ends that left you hanging in the end of reloaded.
but the best thats worth it all, is the fight between smith and neo, if you didnt like anything in the movie, im sure you'll like that part. it kicks ass.

Actually... it's slightly more complex than that.

If you paid attecntion to what the Oracle said to Neo, she said that Smith was Neo's opposite. Neo, by being the most powerful entity in the Matrix, "unbalances the equation" of good and evil, with the scales tipped in favor of good. Hence, Smith gained his powers so that everything could be balanced. Once Smith copied himself onto Neo, the equation essentially became 0, with Neo's opposite being added to himself, causing them both to be destroyed. Then all the people Smith took over revert to their original form and the Matrix is rebooted.

I think it was a lot better than "Reloaded" but it hardly had a story. The whole movie was just about explosions, fights and some crappy dialogues (which nevertheless weren't near as bad as in "Reloaded").

That machine thing having a face and talking was weird and kinda ridiculous. Nevertheless I enjoyed the final fight betwen Neo and Smith especially the full screen pic of Neo hitting Smith's face. oh, and I'm glad that Trinity died, she started to REALLY get on my nerves.

So what would stop the machines from attacking Zion now that Neo is gone?
What happens to the machines now that all the people are free from the Matrix?

Machines can't go back on there word, unlike humans.
