Well, disappointment strikes again. The hailed conclusion to the matrix series ends on a bed of disgusting plot and a side of horrible acting. While I'm sure that the matrix series started out with the best of intentions, it surely has decayed into the festering detritus that became Matrix Revolutions.
In the beginning, it was cool. People in computer programs, the ultimate in 3d gaming experience. (check out those frame rates, and the anti aliasing is awesome!) Wow, some cool moves, I wonder if I really am dreaming, maybe I could fly up to the front of the class and kick that guy's ass with ease. Rene Descartes contemplated reality and existentialism (sp?) long before the matrix maniacs ever did.
So on to the movie, I made the mistake of attending on opening night. People cheered... that's right... they cheered... a movie. I counted no less than three people dressed up as Neo, and I wanted to Ro-Sham-Bo every single one of them in an attempt to chlorinate the gene pool. Besides the depressing audience, the movie became such a hokey pokey fest that if it got any cheesier, Velveeta would have sued for copyright infringement. At least it wasn't government cheese.
To avoid giving away anything from those of you who may cling to hope that it is in fact good, I will cease my accurate description. God speed, and might I suggest waiting until this one comes out on video... or make a friend pay... or just sneak in... if it's worth your time.
