The following are my top reasons why Revolutions was a disappointment:
10) Never once did the Merovingian show us his fighting skills.
9) The Architect did not get his arse handed to him by Neo.
8) Trinity died in a very non-dramatic fashion.
7) It was never explained why The Merovingian came to the Matrix from the machine world.
6) There was no real explanation for how Neo stopped the sentinels.
5) There was no explanation for why the Merovingian wanted "the eyes of the Oracle" or why he was imprisoning the Keymaker.
4) There were no real plot-twists.
3) The sentinels were disproportionate in size to the humans and the ships. (i.e., they were bigger when attacking the ships than they were when attacking the humans).
2) "Self-substantiation" played no role whatsoever.
1) I was hoping the Oracle would kick some arse, like Yoda did in the most recent Star Wars movie.

10. cause he's a *****.
9. didn't really expect him to.
8. I thought it was pretty dramatic.
7. Well, if he represents satan, in hell's club, I'd imagine he wanted to rule the machines at one point.
6. Sure wasn't.
5. He imprisoned the keymaker to mess up the prophecy, and presumably, the eyes of the oracle would have given him more power.
4. There was one twist. The movie was just about how jesus saves lol. What a twist. I tell ya, if I had the WB's in front of me, I'd probably ring their necks.
3. didn't notice that.
2. nope, sure didn't, but who cares really?
1. yoda ruined the clone wars with that crap. that and the stupid one-liners. ugh *projectile vomits*.

10) Uh..who said he was a fighter?
9) Uh...who said that they were going to fight?
8) Seemed pretty dramatic to me...for crying out loud...dying in the first place is dramatic....somebodies mama didn't raise their baby with feelings to not care that a person died in the first place
7) The Merovingion was a computer program...he never came from the Machine World...he had always lived inside the Matrix..
6) for crying out loud...did this stuff really need to be written out for you? He was connected with all of the Machine world because of the information that was inserted into his mind, this was all explained in Reloaded
5) okay, now you're grasping for information that would negate the point of it all
4) uh...okay
3) How do you even know they were the same kinds of Sentinals? Geez...now you're just being picky
2) Who said it had to? I know I wasn't looking for it.
1) Um.....anyway...

Not enuf Morpheus, Mero, Arc, Persephone, filosofy, kung-fu, Seraf.
Too much CGI.
The only good thing: Smith/Bane and the raid on Club Hell.

Let me add another two:
I didn’t like the music
I didn’t like the final fight. /The rain and lightning were annoying. It was impossible to see their movements. When they moved inside the building I said myself: “Oh, finally”. And when they flied circling around I couldn’t help myself I saw two flies and it was ridiculous/.

Strange...it says "Top 10 Disappointments", not "Questions"...there's an appropriate thread for that. So there wasn't any need to answer them, just to agree...which I do.

No one can tell you how bad Revolutions are - you have to see it for yourself.

My arguments exactly! In fact the rain was ANNOYING! Wachowski Bros. copycat that rain explosion and fighting in a japanese comic called THE DRAGON BALL......should've waited until a year b4 releasing the movie. Get their brain worked out other than trying to beat profit-out b4 LOTR grand finale..........
