If you guys want some spoilers for the ending:

Spoiler:

The machines are about to defeat the humans on the docks of Zion, when Morpheus arrives on the Hammer and triggers an EMP, killing all robots. The EMP deactivates all human equipment too, so they retreat to the main city and destroy all tunnels, but the machines are digging in.

Neo, meanwhile, got to the machine city (they imply there's only one, which is kind of stupid) and convinces the guy there (don't know who it is, some machine ruler or something) to end the hostilities if he can defeat Smith, who now has almost the whole matrix under control and will soon attack the machine city. Neo fights Smith, loses, but when Smith absorbs him something happens, and Smith is destroyed.

The machines leave Zion, everyone is happy, everyone who had been captured by Smith is restored, and the Oracle mentions that Neo (who apparently died and was taken somewhere by the machines) might be back.

The end.
Probably away. Contact through email.

JESUS CHRIST!

What a bunch of crap.

I regret paying $4 to see this movie.
I regret spending an hour in the bus stop afterwards.
I regret making my way through the camera man, the policemen and 800 fans to my seat.

Put it this way:
What we know will happen from the trailers and Reloaded:
Zion is attacked by machines. Neo encounters a big computer head, and battles Smith. Due to hollywood logic, the machines are defeated, and at least one main characters dies.

What happens: Zion is attacked by machines. Neo encounters a big computer head, and battles Smith. Due to hollywood logic, the machines are defeated, and at least one main characters dies.

Where's the revolution? Nope. No revolution. No actual plot. No character developement AT ALL. The SFX were lame. The action was drawn out. I actually cried "DIE ALREADY *****!" when a main character died.

Also, it was full of flaws. Most notably: It is established in the Matrix and also in Revolutions that whoever is posessed by an agent, dies. We learn that the Matrix has been conquered by Smiths. Everyone is Smith. Every Smith is killed. Ergo, everyone in the Matrix is killed.

Jeez. I want my two hours back.

The movie was great.
What is the point of revolution. There is a revolution. Neo ends the war...he saves the humanity and establishes peace. The Matrix is destroyed and noone in it has died. We saw that Oracle was possesed by Smith...she returned. There is no Matrix in the matrix. It was a totally stupid idea and who ever thought of it doesn't even understand the Matrix at all. Neo's sacrifice saved both Machines from Smith and Humans from machines. There is no One. Neo and Smith are the One. As Oracle said, Neo is the positive, Smith is the negative of an equation. There is one equation and that is The One.
Smith+Neo=0 Why?
When Neo "destroyed" Smith in Matrix 1 his code got coppied onto Smith causing countless errors and flaws which enabled Smith to ALTER THE MATRIX THE WAY HE SAW FIT. The way he saw fit was to enslave everyone in the Matrix. Smith is a virus program...he took abilities from Neo (or Neo gave abilities to him) to fly, make enormous dammage and be able to copy himself.

Spoilers:

Trinity dies, We see the architech again, The oracle Seriph and that girl still live...The Architect promisses to free everyone from the matrix, Bane (Smith in the real world) fryes Neo's eyes so he is blind, Neo is able to see Bane and kills him

By the way...if you were unsatisfied with Reloaded you shouldn't have seen the Revolutions. Noone forced you to see it. You made your own CHOICE

Characters don't need development. We know what they all can do what are their strengths and weaknesses. Sound effects were awesome. The epic battle between Smith and Neo is the best part in the movie. Very intense and fantastically done. I am deffinetly gonna see this again.

There is a difference between reality (this real world) and fiction (the film world). Obviously...you do not know the difference. Ok if you think that characters needed development lets see what kind of developments did you expect.

Razor. You're dead. You can't talk. You've already made clear that you've never seen real cinema. So shut up and be dead like you have to.

It established no such thing. The only people who died as a result of Agentification were the ones Our Heroes killed.

ah.... all right, I misunderstood that part. But the smiths died anyway. Neo is (presumably) dead, and so should be everyone else whose bodies Smith inhabited.

Or Neo is not dead and we'll get a sequel.

He better be dead.

yeah, my theories were wrong (for the most part... they had some truth though ;) )... i think the movie was overall excellent (just got back from seeing it again).

the movie was non-stop action, and i enjoyed it.  it did tie up all the loose ends, and while the ending wasn't what most people had hoped it would be, all loose ends were tied up and explained.

Also you have to remember, from what i heard they had a purpose in making three Matrix movies...  movie:

1)  Matrix - BIRTH - (Neo's beginning, he's freed and in essense is "born")

2)  Matrix Reloaded - LIFE - (Neo's life outside of the Matrix, and his life in general (recall that no main characters died in Reloaded, it was pretty much about his life)

3)  Matrix Revolutions - DEATH - (Neo dies)

it was a very good movie i think... the only reason not many of you like (or will like) it is because it's not what you expected ;)
