Not a single scene that even came close to the Morpheus rescue or the Neo/Smith fight in the original, or the freeway sequence in Reloaded - frankly, the Zion battle scene was boring in comparison (woo-hoo, 30 minutes of people shooting guns at unfeeling robots that keep on coming anyway). When I go to see a Matrix movie, I want to at least see some excellent martial arts choreography , not a blurry and computer generated Neo and Smith doing a (as someone aptly pointed out) a Dragonball-Z act.Combine the above with the fact that the nothing was resolved, little was explained, interesting characters like the Merovingian hardly played a part, and it really becomes a bit of a turkey. Not a bad movie, but not nearly as good the second one, and crap compared to the original Matrix. It made it very obvious that there was never any kind of larger story beyond the first film (Wachowskis seem to have caught the George Lucas disease, there) and that the first movie is much better left standing on its own merits...</blockquote>
