I think the actors pretty much take a back
seat to the action in this film, but for many of us these movies
make sense only in the broadest terms.
It's sometimes confusing, but still entertaining.
The Matrix Reloaded got most of
the mumbo-jumbo out of the way, so if you haven't seen the first
two, it will be harder to follow along.
This is a fairly straightforward futuristic
action flick, and a pretty good one at that. |
Matrix Revolutions
is bigger and better--a bigger disappointment with better effects.
Yes, it has enough CGI eye candy to satisfy
the most demanding video game enthusiast, but also manages to
end with a thud, from its banal dialogue to the final computer-generated
fist fight. (Fist fight? That's what we were waiting for?)
A disappointing end to a potentially great
series. |
Everything that has a beginning has an
end.
The Matrix's
third installment comes to an end with loud, clamorous, warfare
revolutions.
There's a larger-than-life battle between
man and machines that is done with enough technical skill to
keep the attention of most viewers.
I liked the big-budget special effects
and the high-tech musical score, especially during the end credits. |
