The Matrix, The Matrix Reloaded & The Matrix Revolutions

I got it into my head that it might be interesting to rewatch these, a fair bit on now. Though I liked the first one at the time, the second and third more or less passed me by, and more generally I was never a huge fan of these films in the way that so many others were. Anyhow, they're not too bad - amusingly pretentious at points, both in terms of the 'philosophy' and the extreme portentousness (Laurence Fishburne in particular, for all that he's nonetheless enjoyable to watch) but in their best moments showing real style.
