The final movie in Larry and Andy Wachowski's MATRIX trilogy is THE MATRIX REVOLUTIONS. Toning down the romantic and philosophic elements of the second film in the series, THE MATRIX RELOADED, this third installment focuses on action. Neo (Keanu Reeves) is trapped in limbo between reality and the Matrix, while Zion, the last human city, is attacked by hordes of machines. Meanwhile, Morpheus (Laurence Fishburne), Trinity (Carrie-Anne Moss), and Seraph (Collin Chou) confront the ruthless Merovingian (Lambert Wilson) to secure Neo's release. As the fight for Zion grows more dire, Neo and Trinity embark on a perilous journey into the heart of the machine city, while Morpheus and Niobe (Jada Pinkett Smith) rush to Zion's aid. Eventually, Neo must face the increasingly powerful Agent Smith (Hugo Weaving) in a last battle for the fate of humanity. Highlights of the film include Niobe's thrilling spaceship piloting, the armoured battle for Zion, and Neo's inevitable brawl with Smith, all of which feature amazing special effects. In the midst of the adventure, there are a few quieter moments--such as Neo's Beckett-like wait for the train back to reality--that intriguingly punctuate the proceedings. A fast-paced ending to an epic trilogy, REVOLUTIONS proves once again why the MATRIX series is revered by its dedicated fans.

THE MATRIX REVOLUTIONS
Everything that has a beginning has an end
Picking up from where Reloaded left off, Neo (Reeves) is bereft of his powers and his mind remains in limbo between the Matrix and the Real World.
As Trinity and Morpheus race to free him, the net is closing in on the humans with the Machine Army drilling towards Xion where, within hours, they will overrun the terrified population.
Meanwhile Agent Smith (Weaving) has managed to escape from the Matrix in his unending quest to destroy Mr Anderson. Once restored to his normal self, Neo heads to the Machine city and one final, apocalyptic battle ensues which will decide thefate and future of both races.
Like a missing piece of the jigsaw, Revolutions provides some, but not all, answers to the compelling, original yet convoluted storyline which first wowed audiences back in 1999. And if this cutting-edge blockbuster fails to mesmerise your mind, it will dazzle your senses as the marriage between live action and amazing special effects is just about as good as it gets.
