The second part was already borderline. 'Matrix Revolutions' goes one better and falls completely into a mindless story and an ultimate shooting orgy without sense and reason.
Why exactly are there two parts? Targeted action interludes and a focus on the essential story (regardless of whether the story makes sense) would have made it possible to make both parts into one. It would have been good for the quality.
'Matrix Revolutions' is a huge disappointment for me. The philosophical approach from the first part was half-bakedly taken up in the second part, but in the third part at the latest it is completely lost. The focus is now on senseless shooting, where people shoot at a crowd of guard machines for several minutes and try to scream even louder. There is no tension at all.
What also struck me negatively is the character development. Neo has finally become the omniscient and invincible messiah and Morpheus has been degraded to an interchangeable side character.
The ending is a joke and if you think about it for 3 minutes and continue spinning what was said you will realize that it can't work like that. Also, some events are left without explanation, making these situations seem arbitrarily placed.
Overall, a disappointing conclusion.
