Critics Consensus

A disappointing conclusion to the Matrix trilogy as characters and ideas take a back seat to the special effects.

Read Critics Reviews

David Ansen Newsweek The original Matrix was full of dizzying surprises. But it's turned out that the Wachowskis didn't have many more tricks up their sleeves. Mar 12, 2018 Full Review Nell Minow Common Sense Media Finale with same heavy violence, weaker script. Rated: 2/5 Dec 28, 2010 Full Review Nick Schager Lessons of Darkness Zzzzzz. Rated: C May 4, 2005 Full Review Sean Axmaker Stream on Demand The Wachowskis may have something in their theory that the world is simply a complex operating system humans are simply virtual programs.... Their dialogue feels written by a computer program, and for that matter acted by a collection of CGI figures. Sep 9, 2023 Full Review Brian Eggert Deep Focus Review Perhaps it’s wrong and narrow-minded to hope that the Wachowskis would only live up to their original film, but their brand of mythology expansion narrows the possibilities and limits the viewer’s enjoyment of this universe. Rated: 2.5/4 Jul 12, 2022 Full Review Mike Massie Gone With The Twins Just as much as the last entry was a piece of a story, this one is a fragment, telling so little of the yarn that it’s the least complex and most inessential of the series, save for the fact that it finally wraps up character loose ends. Rated: 4/10 Jul 11, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews

alan g Aging characters with a recycled confusing disjointed plot. Emphasis on the creators leather fetish bdsm fantasies. Unworthy of the first effort. They should have quit at the first one. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 11/08/24 Full Review Tovarishch C It's a decent conclusion for the story. However Neo is barely in the movie, and there are a couple contrived things in the plot in the end. But certainly not a bad Movie and overhated. Specially in light of Matrix Ressurections, this is still a good Matrix Movie. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 10/02/24 Full Review Audience Member Revolutions completes the Matrix sequels' descent into mediocrity. In lieu of wrapping up key plot points or landing the series' big themes, it sort of just smashes everything into the ground with an onslaught of (now dated) special effects. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 07/31/24 Full Review Brock P The Matrix Revolutions was an overwhelming ending to one of the most groundbreaking and iconic franchises. It's not that the movie was bad, but it felt rushed, likely released quickly due to The Matrix's immense popularity at the time. The film isn't horrible; rather, it's a rushed production with significant untapped potential. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 07/12/24 Full Review Shukri R noah:says the matrix revolutions is not my favourite movie! Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 07/02/24 Full Review Mccuak L Me encantó, una gran tercera parte Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/26/24 Full Review Read all reviews

Synopsis In a dystopia overrun by robots, Neo (Keanu Reeves), mankind's greatest hope, is trapped in a limbo world. Meanwhile, the majority of the planet's population remains in a state of suspended virtual reality. The few humans who are cognizant of the grim realities of the world desperately try to hold off their mechanical enemies long enough for Neo to escape and save the day, but things turn disastrous when all-powerful computer program Agent Smith (Hugo Weaving) arrives in the flesh.
