You might be saying, "Umm, didn't you pick up the Matrix trilogy almost 3 weeks ago?, why are you reviewing them now?"
Well the reason I didn't review them up until now is because I watched Matrix Revoultions yesteday, I don't I kept putting off watching the Matrix sequels for some reason, anyway here is my review of the trilogy.
The first movie in the trilogy is one of the greatest Sci Fi film of this decade (even though it was made in 1999), and also the best movie in 1999 next to Sleepy Hollow, this movie is just great, the cast is perfect and the dialogue in this movie is great, I dont exactly know how to explain this movie's plot, but I'll just copy-paste what IMDB said the plot was.
A computer hacker learns from mysterious rebels about the true nature of his reality and his role in the war against the controllers of it.
Yes and well, It's a lot more complicated, but this movie is also a Martial-Arts film, I don't know if there are a lot of Martial-arts SciFi films out there, but this is and It's more Sci-Fi than Martial-Arts and I liked it that way, but honestly, I think I understood about 70% what was really happening in the movie, I need to rewatch it a couple of times to understand everything, anyway, this movie is great, although I'll admit, there were parts of this film that were well...a little bit boring, the characters were just really rambling on.
9/10
And now as you've probably guesses, I'll basically be ranting on the sequels, but I'll be fair, anyway, let's start, for some reason, they decided to work on this film and Matrix Revoultions back-to-back, when I thought they should've released it in 2007 or something like that, but that doesn't matter.
The thing I hate about this movie is that, they got really lazy with it, this movie basically is just Martial-Arts and a little bit of Sci-Fi a kid could make up, now I don't mind Martial-Arts, but where's all that complicated storyline that made us actually try to think about the thing's that were happening, now this movie isn't that bad, I mean, the action sequences were awesome, and I wasn't really bored in the movie, I mean, I was disappointed that there wasn't any "brain-popping" material in the movie, but still it was enjoyable.
6.5/10
The worst movie of the trilogy, honestly, this movie was boring really, I didn't enjoy it that much, Neo (Keanu Reeves) didn't do any of his cool crazy stuff, really, the movie was just bad, now I'm not saying don't watch it, I mean it was good watching a little bit of the Matrix's universe but it was just a bad movie really, if you compare it to the other two movies.
Even those Agents (there on the movie poster I provided), were like in 20 minutes of the movie and those are like the coolest characters in the Matrix universe, even though Neo and One of those agents had a great fighting scene at the end.
anyway, Watch this movie if you liked the first film and thought the second was medicore (or you liked it), but honestly, if you didn't like the first and second films, than don't expect for one second that your going to like this.
3.5/10
So basically, loved the first film, thought the second was medicore and didn't like the third, was a trilogy is it good? no, but The Matrix movie alone, is a great movie
