4. Yeah, Whatever, Here Are Random Programs
The Wachowskis really do drive me crazy. Their movies have no rules whatsoever. The first Matrix was complex, but simple. We live in a virtual reality created by machines. They harvest us for energy. There are Agents who keep everything in line. That’s it. There’s no other overly convoluted crap. That certainly changed once The Matrix Reloaded came around. Oh yeah, there’s this train station that’s limbo between the real world and the matrix, and there’s a trainman, and then we have a crazy French guy called the Merovingian who smuggles random crap, and there’s a program where twins can phase through walls. Neo has powers in the real world now, yeah, I don’t know, whatevs. All this stuff was just an excuse to have cool action scenes, none of which were half as good as in the original, where everything that happened actually made sense.
3. Nobody Gives a Shit About The Machine Battle In Zion
The first hour of The Matrix Revolutions is a complete yawn fest. How many times do we have to be told “The machines are coming.” Come on! Just get to it! Once we finally get to the machine battle, it’s the most agonizing 30-45 minutes of the entire series. This goes back to not caring about the characters. This is no different than watching a mind numbing Michael Bay action sequence. Just end, for the love of Morpheus. This entire subplot with Zion could have been cut out. Get back to Neo, Trinity, and Smith. NOBODY CARES ABOUT THE STUPID KID OPENING THE GATE!
