the Matrix Unplugged

Everything that has a beginning has an end. Well, this ending was deeply disappointing.

I was prepared to see the best of the trilogy. What I saw was filler that didn’t answer my questions, didn’t tie up what I saw as loose ends, and didn’t serve the storyline of the main characters, which were the ones I had a vested interest in.

Minor spoilage ahead

Morpheus needn’t have bothered showing up for Revolutions. This character, this main character was about as useful to the story as the woman in the red dress from the first picture. He was there because he had to be. Because it wouldn’t have been the Matrix without Morpheus.

As for Neo and Trinity—I didn’t care for where their stories went either. To my mind it was an injustice to who these characters are, and the paths that brought them here. Actually, that goes for all the main characters. It was a travesty what Revolutions did with all the main characters. There was more screen-time and plot devoted to minor and newly-introduced characters than there was to the main four.

There’s even a scene in Revolutions that’s right out of The Perfect Storm. I was flabbergasted.

Unless you’re a die-hard, and really need to see this movie, expatriate yourself from the Matrix.

God, I’m so disappointed.
