What I notice early on is just how gelled Trinity's hair is when she's in her, 'Fighting,' outfit so to speak. (When she's not, it isn't).
The three, (Morpheus, Trinity and the martial arts chap) chase a vagrant who manages to jump past a train and evade them. Interestingly he is wearing several watches. I'm not sure of the significance. (The Trainman, in fact he says he created the place in which Neo currently is).
There's an impressive shoot out whereby the bad guys seem to be able to walk on the ceiling.. and fire weapons!
The sleasy French guy, (from Reloaded) returns.
'It's remarkable how similar the pattern of love is to the pattern of insanity.'
After a bit of a gun battle the trio secure Neo's realease but before he comes out of the Matrix he wants to see the Oracle.
'No-one can see beyond a choice they don't understand.'
I've got to say seeing the meeting between the Oracle and Neo talking in riddles just leaves me plain confused!
'One way or another Neo this war is going to end tonight.'
Agent Smith is Neo's negative, his opposite.
I find it amusing for some reason, (maybe that it shouldn't be the case) that the Oracle is a chain smoker.
Agent Smith and lots of other Agent Smiths descend upon the Martial arts expert and the Oracle.
So far nearly forty minutes in, Im not exactly sitting on the edge of my seat! As I have previously, (in other Matrix series reviews) mentioned Morphus' role isn't inspirational (as per the Matrix), which I find a great shame.
There's no sense of anticipation unforunately, yet that doesn't surprise me after Reloaded.
'B&llsh&t, I'm captain of the ship!'
'You never believed in the one.'
- 'I still don't.'
'So why are you doing this?'
- 'Because I believe in him.'
'It was an honour sir.'
- 'No the honour is still mine.'
Interestingly Agent Smith has somehow got his way out of the Matrix into the real world to fight Neo.
A large segment of the film is taken up with the machines attacking Zion. Which in places is quite enjoyable.
'Neo I believe!'
'You did it!'
- 'No we did it!'
'We're over the fields aren't we?'
- 'How do you know that?'
'I can feel it.'
'I can't go with you Neo. I've gone as far as I can.'
When Neo goes to the ledge and speaks to the Machine God, it really reminds me of the part in Hell, Hellraiser 2.
'It ends tonight.'
- 'Because we already know that I am the one that beats you!'
There takes place a truly spectacular, (or ridiculous, depending which way you look upon it) fight with Neo and Agent Smith.
'Why Mr Anderson, why?!'
I think its good how although there are hundreds of Agent Smiths watching the final fight, only Agent Smith actually fights. I didn't like in Reloaded how Neo had to find a whole gaggle of them!
'I have your word.'
- 'What do you think I am.. human?!'
'Did you always know?'
- 'No I didn't but I believed.. I believed.'
