The Matrix – Revolutions
Everything that has a beginning has an end.
In the powerful final chapter of the Matrix trilogy, Neo (Keanu Reeves) took
another step forward in the quest for truth that began with his journey into the
real world at the outset of The Matrix – but that transformation has left him
drained of his power, adrift in a no man’s land between the Matrix and the
Machine World. While Trinity (Carrie-Anne Moss) holds vigil over
Neo’s comatose body, Morpheus (Laurence Fishburne) grapples with the
revelation that the One in which he has invested a life’s worth of faith is
merely another system of control invented by the architects of the Matrix.
During the stunning conclusion, the rebel’s long quest for freedom
culminates in an explosive battle. As the Machine Army wages devastation on
Zion, its citizens mount an aggressive defense – but can they stave off the
relentless swarm of Sentinels long enough for Neo to harness the full extent of
his powers and end the war?
