After seeing Reloaded I was more than a little hesitant to see Revolutions. Fortunately, I was not disappointed. I found Revolutions to be a worthy addition to the trilogy.
The philosophical storyline could have used some work, but I have the same feeling about the whole Matrix series in this respect. It's a good idea but not executed as well as it could have been.
The stuntwork and special effects in Revolutions are IMHO the best of any movie yet produced (LOTR series notwithstanding). The level of detail invested in every visual element is amazing, and the CG animators did a superb job at creating a very real sense of size in this one. The big drilling machines really seem HUGE.
I recommend seeing this one. Don't let your views be swayed by the expectations Matrix 1 set, and the disappointment Matrix:Reloaded was for many. This movie stands on its own. 8/10
