Suspenseful, slow but steady and sad movie!
It has a few surprising turns, which makes it worth watching. Jason Sudeikis character having no iPhone says it all - this is not your funny guy! And the characters development has many flaws. Evangeline Lilly plays a great and very convincing role.
The ending could have been better, but it could also have been a lot more boring.

Just watched it a second time and it gets better and better! The movie has so many layers to discover, if you are open-minded and want to engage in it. Do not watch it for pure entertainment!
I can understand the disappointment and all the negative reviews, but this stems from watching too many dull movies in the past. Those movies, like many of the MCU movies, that just serve you something, you would expect and probably have seen many times before. You simply aren't used to watching a movie and have questions afterwards anymore. A movie, where you actually have to use your brain and rethink, what you just experienced.
Surely this movie lags of what the other Matrix movies where all about, like huge action scenes, well-planned martial arts choreographies and creative camera tracking. It also has some dumb jokes and weird Disney-like robots, but this can be seen as a reflection of what movies have become. Like the last Star Wars movies, that were made by a company, owning the rights to this incredible universe, only wanting to maximize its profit.
All in all this is well-played by Lana. She gave us another intelligent Matrix movie and did a brilliant job. Great fan service, social criticism and maybe the happy end this movie series deserved. Now it's up to Warner to continue or leave it be...

Yes, it is for fans of the original movies. Of course, it will never be as good as the movies from the 80s, because they don't make them like this anymore! But it does them justice and I felt highly entertained. The ending is a perfect send off for the old guys. Looking forward to what's to come next!
Best thing: It makes you forget about the 2016 Ghostbusters movie. Thank you for that Jason Reitman and Gil Kenan!
