The problem I have with the Matrix sequels...1. they're too far up their own ass. The original was a little up its own ass but it was up the part of its own ass that mattered for the story it was telling. Reloaded and Revelations are up their whole ass. "Love is a word." 🙄 2. The original is a very straightforward hero's journey in which deciding to answer the call is the ultimate key to the hero's power. The sequels are about fate and inevitability and how basically no decision can ever matter. So we're sorry to have bothered you.

I think some of the fights just started feeling extra stupid. In particular I'm thinking of the multiple smiths in the park and the final one with him in the rain.
