Matrix Revolutions Opens Today - Early Reviews Not Good
It got two stars in Newsday today. Which, I would consider bad because Newsday game the first one four stars, the second one three stars, and this only got two.

Apparently there's a big let-down at the end. The reality couldn't measure up to the hype, so-to-speak.

I'm going to see it this afternoon on my lunch break. I'll have a report later.

Anyone else planning on seeing it?

1. I am
I don't know what's the big deal. This is still going to be a blockbuster and I liked movie number two. I do not know what their criticisms are of it.

2. saw it yesterday...
the first was best...then the second...then the third...
the third seems 'choppy'...I think the death of the actress playing the Oracle caused them story/production problems

3. Was It the Same Reviewer?
Some reviewers didn't like any of them.

4. I liked the first....................
the special effects were great, the second disappointed me. I can only take so much of slow motion kung-fu fighting. They're becoming boring as far as I'm concerned. That's just my opinion, I know other folks still love them.

5. There's some bias among the critics
I've read all the reviews on rottentomatoes-about 40 in all. There is little objectivity in many of their opinions. The Matrix story is complex, and requires more attention than the average film-hence, many people become annoyed and then the special effects do not matter.

I'll decide for myself after I see it, and will post my review here.
