Kick ass!
Anyone who has ever doubted the religous connections, prepare to taste your foot. This movie makes it so clear it's not even funny.
As the trailer has hinted at, yes, Neo is blinded in the real world.
Some very, very cool developments with the Oracle... But mostly just an evolution of what you already could figure out.
Some interesting looks at the day-to-day life of programs in the matrix... which makes it clear that, slavery aside, most matrix-ite programs are no worse than most people in general. Or that different, really.
The fight scenes were amazing, particularly the middle-ish of the dock fight. I let out a "sweet mother of god" more than once at some scenes. Some good speaches, some great deaths.
More than one main character dies... But even I'm not going to tell who. It's not hard to guess (One has been said will die for a long time now, another you could guess after the first one does).
The scenes on the surface of the Earth are really well done.
Neo's "Cyberkineses" thing is actually never really explained that well... He can "sense" machines, but it's never really said why or how, or how he can affect them. And he can do more than shut them down... He can actually destroy them. As in boom-boom destroy.
The final fight with Smith was a bit long for my tastes. VERY "DragonBall Z" ish... insane levels of power. But very creepy at the same time.
Some good development of minor characters in Zion, and of Seraph, one of the coolest characters of the second one, IMO.
There is one very... um.... exotic, erotic, kinky, something or other club scene... lesbian makeouts, that actually show some skin, gay guys dancing in tight leather, people in bondage outfits, you name it. Strange. :
Music was MUCH better than 2, and even 1 IMO, and there was no damn "rave" scene this time, or anything like it. Very orchestral, choral music at the end too.
Some kick-ass stuff with the hoverships.
