The Matrix Revolutions is a disappointing finale to what started out as an amazing concept.

Following is a spoiler-free review.

Those of you hoping that Matrix Revolutions would make up for how poor Matrix Reloaded was, you had better curl up with a warm copy The Matrix DVD and just try to erase the two sequels from your brains.

Initially I was one of the objective people who went to see Reloaded totally hyped and left the theater saying: "huh?". Well I'm here to tell you that Reloaded was WAY better than Revolutions.

Since both films were shot at the same time it's not surprising that they both suffer from some of the same problems... one of which being: The Wachowski brothers just don't know when to end a scene.

Take anything that is cool or exciting, keep it on the screen for 10 minutes (which is a LONG time) and you'll end up wishing the damned thing was over. I give you the car/freeway chase scene from Reloaded as an example, and there is more of the same unending SFX stuff in this film.

There were a couple of points during the film where I actually said "woah" out loud. But then it seemed like they wanted me to keep being amazed and it just wasn't going to happen.

There was one scene in particular where I must have looked at my wristwatch three times within the span of five minutes. It was excruciating to watch and I wanted it it to be over with.

Overall, I think they should have just left it at the first classic film and moved on to something completely different while their God-like reputations were still upon them.
