Movie Info

Shot back-to-back with The Matrix Reloaded, the third and final installment of Andy Wachowski and Larry Wachowski's sci-fi action saga picks up where the second film left off. Neo (Keanu Reeves) remains unconscious in the real world, caught in a mysterious subway station that lies between the machine world and the Matrix, and Bane (Ian Bliss) is still a conduit for Agent Smith (Hugo Weaving), who continues to grow out of control, threatening to destroy both worlds. Meanwhile, as the sentinels get closer and closer to Zion, the citizens of the earth's last inhabited city prepare for the inevitable onslaught. By bargaining with The Merovingian (Lambert Wilson), Trinity (Carrie-Anne Moss) and Morpheus (Laurence Fishburne) are able to free Neo who, after meeting with The Oracle (Mary Alice stepping in for the late Gloria Foster), decides that he must leave Zion and head for the machine mainframe. As Neo and Trinity venture into the dangerous machine world, with hopes of stopping both the machines and Agent Smith, their comrades in Zion attempt to fight off the attacking sentinels with the odds stacked greatly against them. Other cast members returning include Monica Bellucci, Ngai Sing, and Harold Perrineau Jr. ~ Matthew Tobey, Rovi

Audience Reviews for The Matrix Revolutions

  • Feb 26, 2017
    Like it's predecessor, the final installment of The Matrix trilogy is overcomplicated in plot, yet even more excessive in CGI. The entire 2nd half of the film is a huge barrage of special effects, and while it's not a huge bore, the brilliant choreography has been sacrificed in it's place; save for the final battle between Mr. Anderson and Mr. Smith, and it's always a pleasure watching the two stars square off. Fun moments aside, it feels overlong like Reloaded and is just as unnecessary.

    Another big disappointing sequel to "The Matrix," though still a little superor to the very bad second movie. This movie is really a CGI extravaganza and that overshadows the aspects of a story that could have been very interesting, had the Wachowskis spend more time developing it, than just releasing six months after the second one. The performances are watchable this time around as you can see that Keanu Reeves and Laurence Fishburne really tries to safe this franchise through their likeable performances. Hugo Weaving simply seems like he doesn't want to be there. The story isn't as complicated as in the second movie, but it's just as underwhelming as that one and as you watch the movie again, you really understand why the Wachowskis decided to stop the ideas of future installments. While this isn't the worst of the three, it's definitly a horrible ending to a promising start.

    Disappointing in almost every regard, The Matrix Revolutions is neither conclusive enough to be satisfying nor coherent enough to even follow it. The final battle is impressive however.

    Gripping and action-packed but the film overall isn't so much to celebrate.
