DVD Review

Can this third and final instalment of the Wachowski brothers sci-fi trilogy restore pride and, more importantly, make sense of all that philosophical waffle that left so many of us scratching our heads?

The last time we saw Neo (Keanu Reeves) he was in a coma, the human enclave of Zion was about to be attacked by the machines and Agent Smith (Hugo Weaving) was getting ever more powerful. This instalment brings things to a head, although not necessarily in a way you'd expect.

There's no doubt that visually The Matrix Revolutions looks stunning. Huge amount of special effects work has gone into the movie iand the screen is flooded with action as the Zionites fight a guerilla war against invading Sentinels. Tthe action set inside the Matrix is as impressive as ever, from a gravity-defying showdown between Trinity (Carrie-Anne Moss) and Morpheus (Laurence Fishburne) against Seraph (Sing Ngai) and Merovingian's men; to the final, climatic battle of Neo and Agent Smith.

Some may have criticised the two sequels, but fans will revel in this blockbusting adventure.
