Revolting Matrix Revolutions (No spoilers...anyway, not that there is much to spoil) 
If you expect:
1. More scenes with the lovely Monica Bellucci
2. More magnificent martial arts sequences
3. Less questions and more answers
4. Better character development
DON'T watch Matrix Revolutions!
The last installment of the overhyped Matrix trilogy is sadly the worse. It makes Matrix Reloaded a work of beauty. The special effects are duller (at least the Highway Chase scene in Reloaded made my eyes pop and stopped my breathing), the story makes even less sense (leaving you with a "uhh?? so what now??" at the end) and makes a mockery of the brilliant promise of the Matrix story. As for the much touted special effects, there isn't much that wasn't done before, and some are done worse. The climactic Neo vs Smith battle wasn't half as good as the Neo vs Millions of Smith battle of Reloaded. Trinity does her "I believe I can fly" kick again and there is a new version of the lobby gunfight of the first Matrix, and although the Zion vs Sentinels battle is a full-fledged special effects spectacular, it got tiring after 5 minutes. What's worse, Morpheus, whom you loved and respected, degraded to become nothing more than a lowly soldier for Zion. Remember how awesome Morpheus was in the first Matrix? Remember how wonderfully he used a katana to destroy the Milli Vanillis in Reloaded? Now see how he gets consistently hen-pecked by Niobe...In the end, the show doesn't leave you with a question mark, but more a "I don't give a $h1t anymore!" statement.
Comment: I'd rather use the money to watch Kill Bill vol 1 again!!
"bang bang you shot me down... bang bang I hit the ground..."
