The final episode of Neo's journey, before the 4th film was even an idea, sees the chosen one battle Agent Smith to the bitter end! Smith has evolved and found a way to be everyone everywhere without using the body-snatching technique his former Agent self used. Yet his only focus is destroying the one that changed his programming in the first place!
More Oracle, Architect and Vampire mansplaining does not move the story forward by much at all! As the majority of the action is happening outside the matrix, the code-defying fight sequences we're all looking forward to are very few and further apart. That's not to say there's less CGI in Zion! As the sentinels swarm the dock, Neo is fighting Smiths to the death in the Matrix, and both inspire awe at the use of special FX and CGI!
If the first film was birth or rebirth, the second was living life and so consequently this film is dying and death. But, as the Architect told as in Reloaded, this version of Neo is the 6th spawning. And as with any reinvention, it is stronger, faster and better in all ways, so the results may be different!
Neo and Trinity continue their perfect relationship and even Morpheus rekindles his lost love! But they pale under the weight of a billion bullets and millions of dead machines that carpet the Dock. Even the Matrix in their screens has transformed its scrolling green symbols due to the constant of change.
Philosophically much can be said about the different interpretations of life, its meaning, and its goal, just as each character in the film have different points of view! The balance between the Oracle and Archtect is one of purposeful imbalance. As is the opposite of Neo in Smith! And like life, it all boils down to choices.
Your choice to watch. Your choice to enjoy it or hate it. But as trilogies go, Revolutions closes the story nice and tightly, with no loose ends. Which makes the upcoming 4th instalment all the more curious!
