Saw a video the other day (not in English unfortunately) with an analysis of how it actually makes sense from a themes and style perspective (e.g. the Wachowski's work on the Sense 8 taught them how to go to a more "impro" kind of directing compared to planning everything with very established plans in their earlier works)

Curious to see what the opinion of the people here is

It was a great spoof of the matrix movies. And neil patrick harris... Best work of his since star ship troopers.

I think he was the best character and best acted. The rest - I was fine with the open-ended closure of Revolutions, I don't think there needed to be a revisit to the next phase nor any more prequels. At some point you have to let the artwork be what it is and stop trying to do more. Or milk more money from it.

The only good thing that came from it is the ability for Lana to insert some self-critique within the film itself on how bad of an idea it was.
