REALITY (AND NOTIONS ABOUT) SHOULDN'T BE TAKEN SO SERIOUSLY, PEOPLE!
|
I see no real point in jumping on the whole Matrix-sequels-bashing bandwagon, per se. Sure, it would be oh, so easy to do so, however, I feel that the sequels themselves do a far better job of cannabilising themselves without needing my help.
Instead, I have chosen to limit my review to one aspect of REVOLUTIONS which I feel completely undermines the entirety of the (so-called) trilogy. Namely, the death of Trinity.
Sure, tragedy makes for great drama and what can be more tragic than the death of a main character? However, keeping in mind that the Wachowskis emphasised that RELOADED & REVOLUTIONS were in fact a single story/script that they chose to cut into two (Which in itself begs the question, does that mean there's still one remaining Matrix film left to be made? MATRIX RESUSCITATED, perhaps?), well, in killing off Trinity, the Wachowskis made damn sure that the whole dramatic thrust of RELOADED - namely, Neo dreaming of Trinity's demise and trying to prevent it from happening was really just a pointless exercise in wasting the audiences sweet time. And you can read into Trinity's (and Neo's for that matter) demise as much hidden meaning as you like. It still ranks as stupid! Which, ultimately, is all that the Matrix films really are. No amount of faux philosophical rambling (it's called HYPE, people!) can ever disguise the truth (or is that Truth?) - namely, if it smells like, looks like, feels like a turd, you don't have to swallow any coloured pill to make up your mind that it is, in fact, a TURD. You have all been warned. Oh, and steer well clear of chat-rooms inhabitted by sleazes signing on as Morpheus. There ARE laws against that kind of behaviour, you know!
Oh, and if you ever feel like watching films that are the real deal (ie: intellectually stimulating and mind bending) I recommend VIDEODROME and EXISTENZ, both great films from David Cronenberg. |
