12 Sci-Fis With Bafflingly Low Rotten Tomatoes Scores

12. The Matrix Revolutions - 35% Score

Right out the gate, this one!

The Matrix Trilogy didn't exactly conclude the way fans hoped, and it could be argued the back to back sequels weren't necessary to begin with, but for what it's worth the Wachowski's did put thought into the movies; it's just a shame they cared about aspects that fans of the films didn't.

Between Reloaded and Revolutions, the latter is the better film and while it can be a bit cringing to watch at times, knowing it has a 35% scoring on Rotten Tomatoes feels a little vindictive from the critics. Perhaps they were still soured from the messy second film, and Revolutions came out far too soon?

Admittedly, there are legitimate complaints to be had about the movie; the Neo vs Smith fight amounts to a live-action rip of Dragonball Z (except we can't see half of what's going on in this film) and 75% of the machine invasion of Zion is presented with characters the audience genuinely doesn't care about.

But behind that is the symbolism and metaphors the Wachowskis set up from the very first film. They don't pay off on a first watch and need to be revisited to fully appreciate what was foreshadowed.
