It is a tenuous agreement, built upon peace instead of conflict, with Neo not having to make the decisions the Architect laid out, but the robots will take it. If he can defeat Smith (and rid the Matrix of him), then they will leave Zion alone. The machines make a deal – they’ll plug Neo back into the Matrix and juice him up. Wounded and alone, Neo tells the machines that Agent Smith is a threat not only to the Matrix (where he has absorbed the Oracle and now has psychic abilities) but to the real world as well.
Upon their arrival Trinity is killed in a crash of their ship (the Logos). They travel to the Machine City (Neo’s new real-world powers are definitely put to the test) and communicate with the head of the machines, known as Deux Ex Machina (because of course). The sentinels are still very much headed towards Zion, with humanity ready to mount a desperate last stand (while wearing some very cool, anime-influenced mech suits), while inside the Matrix Agent Smith has copied himself infinitely, to the point that he is the only resident of the virtual world.Īfter a skirmish on the Nebuchadnezzar that leaves Neo blinded and Bane/Smith dead, Trinity and Neo decide to appeal to the robot high command. “The Matrix Revolutions” Recapīy the time the third film arrives, both the Matrix and the real world are on the brink of oblivion. And that’s how “The Matrix Reloaded” ends, leaving everyone back in 2003 hanging for another six months. He then falls into a coma and is moved to the med bay alongside a human (Bane) that has been possessed by the villainous Agent Smith (Hugo Weaving). Neo and Trinity escape and Neo shows off a new ability: he has powers in the real world and disarms the sentinels. Back in the real world, their ship the Nebuchadnezzar is attacked. Instead, upon learning of Trinity’s death in the Matrix, Neo leaves the Architect and races to her aid. (The Architect gravely states that they have figured out gruesome ways of surviving without their human batteries.) The second option is more of a “hard reboot” scenario, like when you have to hold down on the power button and wait for it to cycle through.
And each time there is a new Neo, he is given a choice: pick a handful of survivors to repopulate the next version of Zion (which will be destroyed by the sentinels), or refuse, and kill everyone in Zion and those hooked up to the machines. Every now and again a new messianic figure emerges, which coincides and facilitates a new version of the Matrix to be programmed. Once at the Source, Neo meets the Architect (Helmut Bakaitis), who tells Neo that his emergence is part of a cycle that has been built into the Matrix. Neo, Trinity and Morpheus rescue the Keymaster, who gets Neo to the Source but not before forfeiting his life. But even this task is tinged with suspicion if she is a program how can she be trusted? They track the Keymaster down in the chateau of the Merovingian (Lambert Wilson), a weird crime lord type figure who rules over a group of defective programs like the ghostly Twins (Neil and Adrian Rayment). The Oracle (Gloria Foster), revealed to be a program within the Matrix, suggests that they find a man called the Keymaster (Randall Duk Kim), who can take them to the Source of the Matrix.
#Matrix series movie#
Since it’s been nearly 20 years since there was a new “Matrix” movie out, we figured that a refresher might be in order.Īnd one small note: for the sake of our sanity and yours, we will not be factoring in the still-very-much-canon “Matrix” videogame “Enter the Matrix” (which features a ton of footage with the original actors shot by the Wachowskis), the animated short films contained within the “Animatrix” anthology or “The Matrix Online” game, an internet-based multiplayer game that continued the narrative of the movies after “Revolutions.” This is just the sequels, how they wrap up, and how they feed into “The Matrix Resurrections,” which hits theaters and HBO Max on December 22. It followed “The Matrix Reloaded,” which opened on May 15, 2003. The last entry in the franchise was “The Matrix Revolutions,” which hit theaters way back on November 5, 2003.
Are you ready for “The Matrix Resurrections?”
