[QUOTE="Welverin, post: 852910, member: 433"] Sorry, I should have said that it could have been a different [B]type[/B] of movie, which is what it would have been had they gone in the direction you wanted. I'd say it's pretty clear The Matrix is and was meant to be an action movie, and to say it failed to live up to it's potential (or criticize it) for the very things that define what type of movie it is (the action scenes) is ridiculous. While it?s a valid reason to dislike a movie, to whatever degree, I don?t think it?s a valid reason to judge it on. It be like me saying Chicago failed because it ends with a big musical number [SIZE=1](ok, I?m just assuming that it does since I didn?t see, but it?s a musical so it?s a fair bet that it does)[/SIZE]. I think that?s all maybe I?ll add more later. Yes, but what happens in the movie to make you, or anyone else, believe that she actually loves Neo? Beyond the fact that Trinity is the female lead, Neo is the male lead, and the script requires that Trinity loves Neo I don't see anything in the movie to establish the fact. [/QUOTE]
