The first one. It had the greates impact on me, and it stands alone. The other two have incredible fight scenes between Neo & Smith, though. I really enjoyed the whole series.

I definately like the first movie best. I wish they would have filmed it last though. with the higher budget I think it would be getting more respect for filmography.
Next comes Rev. , should have been MUCH more of Machine City, like half the movie and a lot less of the dock.
Reloaded seemed to just be filler until Rev came out, and not much for that tho.

Re: favourite Matrix film
am curious as to why you really didnt like the 3rd .. I enjoyed the 3rd more than re-loaded .. so am surprised that you're unable to find anything you likedMatrixman wrote:I'll rank them according to the number of times I saw them:
1. The Matrix
-saw more times than I can remember. The good: everything! The bad: I concede one thing...I never felt chemistry between Keanu Reeves and Carrie-Anne Moss.
2. Reloaded
-saw it twice. The good: Merovingian, Persephone, Seraph, Gloria Foster one more time as the Oracle. The bad: lame demise of twins right up there with Boba Fett's stupid end in Return of the Jedi. Rave scene in Zion dated movie, like disco music dated Battlestar Galactica. Neo & Trinity have no chemistry. And that ending! Grammatically speaking, they ended the movie in mid-sentence.
3. Revolutions
-saw it once. The good: when the movie finally ended. The bad: how long of a list do you want?
and i loved the dialogue in the ending .. between the Oracle and the Architect .. just clinched it nicely for me ..
its a revolution .. cyclical .. brilliant!!

Yeah, I agree, Skyweir; the Architect's line really tied up an interesting theme in the movies.Skyweir wrote: . . . and i loved the dialogue in the ending .. between the Oracle and the Architect .. just clinched it nicely for me ..

yeah definately .. and gave the movie premise the tight little package feel Revolutions the whole concept of their being more than One - One lol
each 1000 or 1000,000 cells invokes' a One' .. a gifted one .. as Neo was
and as before him went others .. a flaw in the Matrix .. not that there is only the one flaw

I had a thought about that . . . could all the previous Ones be religious characters in history? For instance was Christ a one, or Mohammed? Further when the Machines talk about the paradise that never worked (entire crops were lost) was that Eden or Atlantis?Skyweir wrote:. . . and as before him went others .. a flaw in the Matrix .. not that there is only the one flaw
