I didn't think it was as bad as people said either.
A few gripes is that age is finally catching up with my boy Keanu, and his action just isn't the same as it once was. The fighting scenes just aren't as fluid when he's in as they used to be...........but that is expected.
That the characters replacing other characters haven't found themselves in their roles yet. Of the new mains none of them feel like natural fits like they did in the first series. But they aren't terrible either.
That it feels too small scale compared to all the rest.
Which all would be fine IF this movie does well enough to warrant sequels. But poor box office returns is looking like this will be a no go.
Would've been fine as a starting point for a new trilogy, but as the final in the series, if it remains that way, it is disappointing.
I suspect it will be one of those movies that gains popularity the longer it is released and people realize it just isn't the first trilogy, but that it also isn't bad.
Also, if you are going to bald someone in the real world, at least trim their DAMN EYEBROWS to match. I was continually distracted by fuzzy caterpillars resting on the brow.
