..::Everything that has a beginning has an end::..
A r-e-v-o-l-u-t-i-o-n that will bring about all the answers of the never answered Questions, The time has come to do justice to your beliefs and to overcome all the odds to save humanity. I watched it FDFS on the exact time when it was being premiered in 60 more countries.
1110000000000000, Puzzled with the Bits, well same must have been the reactions of die hard Matrix Fans who went into seek the answers, the enlightening of the ideology proposed and perhaps for the soul of the Matrix Creation but all of it wasn’t disappointing as for a avg. cinegoers it was a treat and perhaps somewhat more than the previous versions.
What’s in Store this time ?
Matrix Revolutions begins where Reloaded left off,NEO (Keeanu Reeves) is in a state of coma and in the process he ends up in the Middle World,now you all wondering what’s that?, Well middle world is the vacuum between the Matrix and the other side, he meets an Indian family on the station and gets to know some useful facts about the Matrix and the emotions around it. Mean while this is a station through which one can get out and into the Matrix, The transmission is controlled by the Trainman who is a important ally of the Merovingian, Trinity(Carrie Anne Moss) & Morpheus (Laurence Fishburne) strike a deal with the Merovingian (Lambert Wilson) to rescue Neo and somehow they escape, Neo wants to meet Oracle (Mary Alice now plays the part as Gloria Foster has, sadly, died.) before he gets back to the Matrix, This is perhaps the most Intriguing meet between the two and Die Hard Matrix fans may or may not get answers from this,
Concluding that Neo now knows that Agent Smith (Hugo Weaving) is the Negative Side of himself & he must be killed coz he poses the greatest threats to them. Meanwhile Octopi Machines have attacked Zion & Morpheus along with spirited Niobe (Jada Pinkett Smith) rages a battle against the Machines. Neo is told to go to the Machine City as this there last chance. An Indian little actress Sati (Tanveer Atwal) has a important and a meaty role, in fact she’s the light side of the movie which is otherwise dark she’s protected by Seraph (Sing Ngai) , Monica Belluci as Persephone has a 5 min appearance.
1)Can Neo save Zion?
2)What's with Agent Smith that worries everyone?
3)In the process an Important Character dies.
4)What happens , do humans survive or it’s the E-N-D
To know all this go watch this futuristic flick.
The Highs of Matrix Revolution
1)SFX, well I don’t think it needs much of the thought, but all I can say is Watch it to Experience the sensation, e-x-c-e-p-t-i-o-n-a-l to say the least.
2)The Climax i.e. the ultimate showdown between Neo and Agent Smith is a Hair raiser, rusher of blood and just f-a-n-t-a-b-u-l-o-u-s to say the least.
3)The whole sequence that covers the war between the Octopi’s and the Human Soldiers of Zion is m-i-n-d b-l-o-w-i-n-g to say the least, I think it will hold you to your seat.
4) The Background Score keeps you keen & really the pacy style with which the Action & Stunts have been handled is a treat.
The Lows of Matrix Revolutions
1)It’s murky, yes I think this is where the movie gets depressing & might not go well with the viewers who might succumb to lack of relief.
2)The Sequence between Neo & Trinity in the Machine City drags and also drags down the pace of the movie.
3)For one’s who seek answers and looking for the Big Picture i.e. the philosophy in the Matrix, I think this will disappoint them coz perhaps the movie has more Action and Adrenaline rushing sequences rather then some thought provoking ones.
What was the Matrix Trilogy?
Matrix proposes a Computerized Pre-Defined environment to us, The Ideology proposes that Every Program or a Software has a function, & after performing that function the software should stop, that’s why they say “Everything that has a beginning has an end”, All goes well until few destructive programs like Agent Smith go out of control and this when they start confronting with the creator and want to control the whole Matrix himself but someone has to fight in the pursuit for human survival and this is where Neo comes in, So sequel after sequel we uncovered the aspects of the Trilogy and came to the conclusion, Conclusion:: This is the conclusion that you will come to know at the end of the movie itself. The Architect created Matrix and Oracle took care of the same, Like I said every program has a function similarly Matrix is a amalgamation of software that perform there function and end but some do not as Agt. Smith and they get out of control, Such programs itself pose a threat to the Human life forms and hence have to ended & this is where Super Human like Neo who ofcourse is the chosen one comes in, in order to save the humanity Neo has to follow few guidelines of Oracle and in that way bring an end to the woes of the humans by ending Agt. Smith. SIMPLE isn’t it….
Matrix Revolutions still leaves me Puzzled.
1)Oracle’s viewpoint expressed in the end is rather confusing when she confronts with the Architect.
2)When Neo & Trinity fly on the top of Machine City , they see sunlight, Now what was that , Was it actual & natural sunlight or the one i.e. the part of the Matrix.
3)Where do those Indian Parents go?, As throughout there presence they keep mumbling about there own world.
4)Agent Smith is the Negative Side of Neo, Try & brush your memories to Matrix (1999) when Neo evades the Bullets as if he is one of them, This is when Agt. Smith says “Are you the one from us”, But Neo was the Chosen one.
5)Still Neo refuses the Candy from Oracle.
6)Perhaps the biggest Q’s left unanswered was why the Source was attacking Zion & even if it did then Why in the world it stops.
7)Was Agent Smith the biggest Super power or was it Neo.
8)If Agent Smith was out of control then Wasn’t Merovingian out of control too.
9) Indian Parents show human like emotions to there daughter but they are a software and are not supposed to do so.
Well the list has just started & probably I was ignorant of few answers, Hope some Die Hard Matrix Fans watch it and get the answers for me. May be Wachowski Bros. the writer director duo might know the answers.
OVERALL
Matrix Revolutions is a treat for Cinegoers who are keen for action, action & more action but it might just be jolter for some one who wants as I say Answers to the Q’s raised by one’s belief.
Please Le’ me continue in Comments but do rate my effort...
