The ending of Matrix Reloaded was CHEESY AS SHIT. Of course, that's pretty much the whole reason WHY I like it, it makes me laugh.

The trilogy as a whole is nowhere near as strong as it could have been, it didn't live up to its potential that was hinted at in the first movie. A lot of the philosophical stuff was never explored, just brought up and then never touched again. So you have a lot of dead ends there. I think the Wachowskis tried to be vague on some things so you could form your own interpretations, but I think a viewing of all three movies closer together would be required to really find any hidden meaning in any of it.

I certainly enjoyed the trilogy, it was GREAT eye-candy. The acting for the most part was shit, Hugo Weaving was the best of the bunch. But I love the old Star Wars movies too and the acting was pretty much crap there too. Sadly, the movies don't have NEARLY as much depth as they seem to think they have, but that doesn't bother me but so much.

I like the movies, but as for the trilogy as a whole, it doesn't rank up there anywhere near the old Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, Indiana Jones, Back to the Future, etc...
