The Matrix Revolutions (2003)

Synopsis: Neo heads to the City of the Machines; the Hammer returns to Zion, which meanwhile suffers a massive attack of Sentinels.

Appraisal: This is even more hopeless than the earlier installments; the plot does not make sense and the exhibition of complex computer-generated imagery seems to be the sole purpose of the film. If you cannot follow my earlier advice and ignore the whole series, stick to the first two films. The open-endedness will not be a big problem - you might even think of it as a philosophical requirement, somehow - and you will spare yourself witnessing the relinquishment of the last shred of dignity the series still possessed.

Rating: 28
