However, I do talk about the movie in broad general terms. ...........I was one of 'those guys' that didn't totally bash on Matrix:Reloaded. Lots were saying it was a crappy movie. Now, I did think Reloaded did have many flaws. However, not enough for me to not like the movie. Overall, I enjoyed myself. I say this because I don't want someone to read this and assume that perhaps I fall into the camp of viewers that walk into the theatre with negative thoughts already hovering in their heads. Negative thoughts from the previous installment. Having said that, I think Revolutions was the weakest of the three films. Not a train wreck of film....but there is (to me at least) a noticeable drop in quality from Reloaded to Revolutions.Dialogue it seemed suffered the biggest drop in quality. The brothers are starting to show their comic book roots. Not to insinuate that comic books are a medium where bad writers dwell. However, the type of dialogue being spoken is of the same flavor of bad comic book dialogue. This maybe an incorrect label, but its about the best way I can try to describe it right now.Basic overall story structure is solid, but individual chapters seem to be either misused, illconceived, or poorly being able to further the story in any emotionally impacting way. The first fifth of the movie is a good example.A lot character arcs don't come full circle or resolve in any satisfactory manner. The changing of the actress that plays the Oracle could've been done more imaginative. An unfortunate and sad loss to the community of actors, but I wish they could've done something more interesting with her sudden change.The conclusion felt flat and not very epic at all. Especially the last few scenes before credits roll. I give Matrix:Revolutions a 5 out of 10 [ 10 being highest score].Matrix: Reloaded gets a 7 out of 10.Matrix gets a 8.5 out of 10.Despite scoring the movie lowest out of all three, its definitely worth seeing if you're into some cool visuals. Lots of stuff to 'ooh' and 'aaah' about as far as cool effects and/or fights.</blockquote>
