I'm not about to shoot this movie to pieces. As a trilogy I loved it. It will become the Star Wars for our generation. It was entertaining. It served it's purpose as a movie. It entertained me.
However, I do have some questions/observations about the final episode:
1. What happened to the little girl and Seraph? What I mean is, the last time we (think) we see them is when they are in a small room, cornered by Smiths.....then suddently they re-appear at the closing scene? How did they get out of the smith filled room?
2. If a hovercraft can break through the clouds and see the sun....then why can't the machines build giant solar panels that reach through the clouds and access the sun?
Also, I would have liked to have heard the bartering that went on between the source and Neo. I can only assume the deal was that the humans would be left alone, and those still "plugged-in" would be made aware of their plight and given the choice to stay plugged-in or be freed. Right? anyone?
AND....I would have liked a better explanation of Neo's power outside of the matrix. After all, outside the matrix he is only human. Which is what the first movie went to great lenghts to make very clear...slight confusion. It's a basic plot line that contradicts itself in the end.
Well, ok, I guess I did pick apart the movie a little. I still loved it, and all three movies. Good times people.
