The Dark Side of the Lawn

Things that annoyed me about the Matrix trilogy:

1. Neo was supposed to become more and more mechanical and inhuman as the series went on, while Mr. Smith became more humanlike and viruslike. This is supposed to be ironic. No, that does not happen. Keanu Reeves speaks in a monotone for all three films, and Smith is angry and irrational right from the beginning. If they were going for the effect they should have put more consideration into their characters.
2. The CGI was bad. Not only that, it was bad during the Smith brawl in the second movie, when it needed it the most. The robots were cool, though. Got to give them that.
3. The robots use unnecessary, brutal force to deal with humans. In the third movie they launch a barrage of bombs across the horizon to take out a single ship. What kind of logical, impenetrable computer system does this?
   
4. The fighting was good in the first film. By the second it was half a second too slow every time or simply uninspired. They just didn't put in as much effort to the choreography. In the third it was all superhuman megafistfights and bad CGI bullets.
   
5. An attempt to squeeze in too much badassery. Serif should have had much more screen time. The Train Man had no purpose at all. The Twins, who were awesome, disappear right in the middle of an action sequence. Even the Agents inexplicably lose about 59% of their ass-kicking ability by film 2. If they'd just chosen someone to be a badass character and stuck with it, then maybe the whole thing wouldn't feel as though the writers were simply trying to squeeze in every character idea they had in the hope that something stuck.
   
6. Over-the-top Christian imagery. Yeah, guys, we get it. You didn't have to draw a cross on Neo's chest. Do you think we don't know a sacrifice when we see one?
   
7. The rave party. That entire scene. Enough said.
   
8. The opportunity to imply that the "real world" was simply a backup program within the Matrix was sorely missed, except in those who weren't fully paying attention at the end. That really disappointed me.
9. WHY DO THE ROBOTS FLY??? I mean, the hovercrafts obviously use the electromagnets on their hulls, but... so smoothly, so swiftly, so effortlessly? If the robots have such advanced technology as to be thousands of times better than the human machines, then why do they still resort to stabbing humans with their claws? If they have antigravity then why don't they have- oh wait, they do. Okay, why didn't they use their metal-piercing lasers during the dock battle? Amongst other things. And superweapons. Do robots have some kind of anti-nuke policy? Seriously, there are just so many problems with the robots.

And other things, but that's all I'm going into right now.
Why can I never find the right words when I need them most?
