I'm glad I'm not the only one thinking that. It was so bad, so so bad... But yeah I couldn't help but feel the wachowski sister that did it (if I'm not wrong the other one didn't participate) just dit it to spite the studio for trying to make a moneygrab movie.
Having said that, despite the 2nd and 3rd movies not being great by any means compared to the first one, I do still enjoy them, like a guilty pleasure kinda thing.
IIRC in the first half hour they explicitly shit talk the execs wanting a sequel so it's quite obvious it's a middle finger to Warner bros.
Personally I was surprised that they even allowed it since it was so explicit about it. Lol
The 2nd and 3rd ones are still fun, action-packed movies with ground-breaking effects. The Matrix set an impossibly high bar and it was not originally planned to be a sequel, let alone a trilogy. They also whipped them together much faster, so in that context, I think they did a great job.
Huh. Douglas Adams did something similar when his publisher kept pressuring him to make another Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy book.
