Just got back from it, really enjoyed it, with a couple of exceptions. The final fight scene had waaaay to many references to the duality. They told us point blank, we didn't need to see 5 examples of it again. I also hated hated hated the little girls question to the oracle and her response. Totaly unneeded, and reeking of "make it a bit happier in the rewrite, please".

Disregarding plot, and looking at it in terms of visual content and tone, this would typicaly of been the second movie by trilogy rules, and Reloaded the third, so it was nice to have a little shake up there.

I also greatly enjoyed the tonedown of "CGNEO". in fact, it only intruded into my enjoyment once during the movie, wheras I was ready to rip my eyes out during parts of Reloaded for the abunt use of it.

Were anyone elses thoughts drawn to Dune Messiah in the last half of the movie?

All in all, I'm quite happy with the trilogy. Sure, there are things I wish had been done differently, but the movies I can't say that about can probably be counted on one hand easily. It was a fun, well made, sci-fi series, and those just don't come along often enough for me to hold it's shortcommings against it too much.
