Idk..1 was amazing, yes...first time anyone really did anything like that. 2 was pretty good...but kinda slow toward the end. 3, ohh 3...not my favorite, kinda boring imo. But yes to original star wars and lord of the rings were great
The Matrix Trilogy as a whole is great, it has to be appreciated in one sitting. Reloaded is my favorite, third movie wasnt as action packed, but it had to wrap up the trilogy.
yea and even that shit was hard as fuck to follow the next 2 forget about it fuckin assholes that all look the same
If you've already seen the Trilogy and enjoy it, pick up the Animatrix movie (I say movie, but it's like 9 short films under the Umbrella title 'Animatrix'). It's certainly worth a watch.
The Matrix is one of my all time favourite movies, it's just a great action flick that's backed up by great storytelling. Introduced some themes and ideas to me when I first saw it when it first came out. Reloaded is alright, better than some people think it is but I think Revolutions should have stayed as part of Reloaded instead of being it's own film. Way too much filler.
I think the 1 st movie is the better of the 3. It introduces everything and the 3rd ended it all. Didnt really like the second movie, it was alright. Now the Animateix really explained things. This movie should be talked about amongst the 3.

I think they were filmed at the same time
Great first movie, and cool scenes in the other 2. But besides the action in those other 2 they are terrible movies.
Yeah originally it was just one movie and the rush to the Architect would have happened at the same time as the Zion invasion/mecha fight. But good ol' Warner Bros didn't think people would like a nearly 3 hour action movie so they split it into two, meaning they had to shoot a hell of a lot of filler (the cave rave, the second visit to the Oracle, the stuff with Neo getting trapped in the Matrix, Smith in the real world etc). Same reason the Enter The Matrix game was so rushed and some it doesn't make sense with the movies, they wanted it out before the 3rd movie was released.
The sequels were so poorly made, you wonder if they were directed by the same guys. Lost all its style and originality for blue/green screen generic two shot crap. Ideas and themes were interesting, some fight scenes were good, but overall boring, repetitive etc. First is, always will be a classic though.
People who don't appreciate the entire Matrix trilogy just don't know good art. If you're looking for the Matrix for cool fight scenes, that's the wrong reason. The Wachowski siblings r genius.

The 2nd and 3rd movies complete the entire concept of the Matrix. The first Matrix is indeed a good movie by itself, but the whole trilogy is an excellent piece of art.
