The original film was close to perfection, the second film had its moments, like the night club scene and the introduction of the twins and flipping an SUV with a samurai sword, and the third… basically only thing I remember is watching a live-action version of a DBZ fight, which was awesome to watch in the theatre and obviously still miles better than any fight in the actual live-action DBZ movie… But I couldn’t tell you what the rest of the film was about.
Part three tied the plot together in the end and gave it a tidy conclusion, but it was like a completely different film from one and two, probably cause most of it took place outside the matrix.
I liked Agent Smith’s existential rants. Those make the movie worth seeing, even aside from wrapping up the plot.
But the big battle in the cave drove me crazy because the timing was just so off. Like I think they wanted to build suspense so they dragged some things out. But for me that killed the suspense because it was like “okay time’s up, they would be dead if they didn’t have plot armor.” Personally I can’t feel suspense if the pacing isn’t at least believable.
