This is Alice's final film role before her death in July 2022. The film follows <a href="Neo_(The_Matrix)" title="Neo (The Matrix)">Neo</a> and his allies as they fight to end the war between humanity and the machines permanently while opposing the rogue <a href="Agent_Smith" title="Agent Smith">Agent Smith</a>.

The film was released simultaneously in 108 territories on November 5, 2003, by <a href="Warner_Bros._Pictures" title="Warner Bros. Pictures">Warner Bros. Pictures</a>. While being the final entry in the original trilogy of the series, the Matrix storyline was continued in <a href="The_Matrix_Online" title="The Matrix Online">The Matrix Online</a> video game. The Matrix Revolutions was the first live-action feature film to be released in both regular and <a href="IMAX" title="IMAX">IMAX</a> theaters at the same time. It grossed $427 million worldwide, making it <a href="2003_in_film" title="2003 in film">the eighth-highest-grossing film of 2003</a>. The film received mixed reviews from critics.

A fourth film, titled <a href="The_Matrix_Resurrections" title="The Matrix Resurrections">The Matrix Resurrections</a>, began production in February 2020 and was released on December 22, 2021.

Shortly after the Mjolnir saved the crew of <a href="Nebuchadnezzar_(The_Matrix)" title="Nebuchadnezzar (The Matrix)">Nebuchadnezzar</a>,<a href="#cite_note-two-7">[b]</a> <a href="Neo_(The_Matrix)" title="Neo (The Matrix)">Neo</a> and <a href="Bane_(The_Matrix)" class="mw-redirect" title="Bane (The Matrix)">Bane</a> still lie unconscious in the ship's medical bay. Neo's consciousness is trapped in a <a href="Subway_station" class="mw-redirect" title="Subway station">subway station</a> named Mobil Ave, a <a href="Limbo" title="Limbo">transition zone</a> between the Matrix and the machine world. He meets a "family" of programs, including a girl named <a href="List_of_Matrix_series_characters#Sati" title="List of Matrix series characters">Sati</a>. The "father" tells Neo the subway is controlled by the Trainman, a program loyal to the <a href="Merovingian_(The_Matrix)" class="mw-redirect" title="Merovingian (The Matrix)">Merovingian</a>. When Neo tries to board a train with the family, the Trainman refuses and overpowers him.

<a href="Seraph_(The_Matrix)" class="mw-redirect" title="Seraph (The Matrix)">Seraph</a> contacts <a href="Morpheus_(The_Matrix)" title="Morpheus (The Matrix)">Morpheus</a> and <a href="Trinity_(The_Matrix)" title="Trinity (The Matrix)">Trinity</a> on behalf of the <a href="Oracle_(The_Matrix)" class="mw-redirect" title="Oracle (The Matrix)">Oracle</a>, who informs them of Neo's confinement. Seraph, Morpheus, and Trinity enter <a href="Club_Hel" class="mw-redirect" title="Club Hel">Club Hel</a>, where they confront the Merovingian and force him to release Neo. Troubled by visions of the Machine City, Neo visits the Oracle, who claims she is trying to end the war, and didn't tell Neo the truth about the Matrix because he needed to figure it out himself. She reveals <a href="Agent_Smith" title="Agent Smith">Smith</a> intends to destroy both the Matrix and the real world. She tells him "everything that has a beginning has an end." After Neo leaves, a large group of Smiths assimilates Sati and Seraph. The Oracle does not resist assimilation, and Smith gains her powers of <a href="Precognition" title="Precognition">precognition</a>.

In the real world, the crews of the Nebuchadnezzar and the Mjolnir find and reactivate <a href="Niobe_(The_Matrix)" title="Niobe (The Matrix)">Niobe's</a> ship, the Logos. They interrogate Bane, who says that he has no recollection of the earlier massacre. As the captains plan their defense of Zion, Neo requests a ship to travel to the Machine City. Motivated by her encounter with the Oracle,<a href="#cite_note-8">[c]</a> Niobe offers him the Logos. Neo departs, accompanied by Trinity. Bane, who has stowed away on the Logos, takes Trinity hostage. Neo realizes Smith has assimilated Bane, and a fight ensues. Bane burns Neo's eyes with a power cable, blinding him. Neo discovers he can still "see" machine source code in the real world and uses this ability to kill Bane. Trinity pilots them to the Machine City.

Niobe and Morpheus rush toward Zion in the Mjolnir to aid the human defenses. Zion's shipyard is overwhelmed by a horde of Sentinels. The fatally wounded <a href="Captain_Mifune" class="mw-redirect" title="Captain Mifune">Captain Mifune</a> instructs <a href="List_of_Matrix_series_characters#Kid" title="List of Matrix series characters">Kid</a> to open the gate for the Mjolnir, which he does with the aid of <a href="List_of_Matrix_series_characters#Zee" title="List of Matrix series characters">Zee</a>. When it arrives, it discharges its <a href="Electromagnetic_pulse" title="Electromagnetic pulse">EMP</a>, disabling all the Sentinels present but also Zion's remaining defenses. The humans are forced to retreat and wait for the next attack, thinking it will be their last stand.

The Logos is besieged by machines guarding Machine City. Neo shuts several of them down using his newfound powers<a href="#cite_note-two-7">[b]</a> but passes out from exhaustion. To avoid their attackers, Trinity flies above them, briefly glimpsing the open sky before crashing into a building. Fatally wounded by debris, Trinity declares her love for Neo before dying. Neo enters the Machine City and encounters the leadership of the machines in the form of the "<a href="Deus_Ex_Machina" class="mw-redirect" title="Deus Ex Machina">Deus Ex Machina</a>." Neo warns that Smith threatens both the machine and human worlds. He offers to stop Smith in exchange for peace with Zion. The Deus Ex Machina agrees, and the Sentinels shut down, stopping the attack on Zion.

The machines plug Neo into the Matrix, whose population has now been entirely assimilated by Smith. The Smith with the Oracle's powers steps forth, telling Neo he has foreseen his own victory. After a protracted fight, Smith says "everything that has a beginning has an end," repeating what the Oracle said to Neo. Neo appears to concede defeat and allows himself to be assimilated. Outside the Matrix, the machines send a surge of energy into Neo's body, which inside the Matrix causes the Neo-Smith clone, then all the other Smith clones, to be destroyed, killing Neo while restoring the Oracle and everyone else who was assimilated. The Sentinels withdraw from Zion, Morpheus and Niobe embrace, and the city rejoices. The machines carry Neo's body away.

The Matrix is rebooted, and the <a href="List_of_Matrix_series_characters#Architect" title="List of Matrix series characters">Architect</a> meets the Oracle in a park, scolding her for having "played a dangerous game." They agree that the peace will last "as long as it can" and that those who desire to leave the Matrix will be allowed their freedom. The Oracle tells Sati that she thinks they will see Neo again. Seraph asks the Oracle if she knew this would happen. She replies that she did not know, but she believed.

In contrast to its predecessors, very few "source" tracks are used in the film. Aside from <a href="Don_Davis_(composer)" title="Don Davis (composer)">Don Davis</a>' score, again collaborating with <a href="Juno_Reactor" title="Juno Reactor">Juno Reactor</a>, only one external track (by <a href="Pale_3" class="mw-redirect" title="Pale 3">Pale 3</a>) is used. Although Davis rarely focuses on strong melodies, familiar <a href="Leitmotif" title="Leitmotif">leitmotifs</a> from earlier in the series reappear. For example, Neo and Trinity's love theme—which briefly surfaces in the two preceding films—is finally fully expanded into "Trinity Definitely"; the theme from the Zion docks in Reloaded returns as "Men in Metal", and the energetic drumming from the Reloaded tea house fight between Neo and Seraph opens "Tetsujin", as Seraph, Trinity and Morpheus fight off Club Hel's three doormen. The climactic battle theme, named "Neodämmerung" (in reference to <a href="Richard_Wagner" title="Richard Wagner">Wagner</a>'s <a href="G%C3%B6tterd%C3%A4mmerung" title="Götterdämmerung">Götterdämmerung</a>), features a choir singing extracts (<a href="Shlokas" class="mw-redirect" title="Shlokas">shlokas</a>) from the <a href="Pavamana_Mantra" title="Pavamana Mantra">Pavamana Mantra</a>, introduced in the <a href="Upanishad" class="mw-redirect" title="Upanishad">Upanishads</a>. The chorus can be roughly translated from <a href="Sanskrit" title="Sanskrit">Sanskrit</a> as follows: "lead us from untruth to truth, lead us from darkness to light, lead us from death to immortality, peace peace peace". The extracts were brought to Davis by the Wachowskis when he informed them that it would be wasteful for such a large choir to be singing simple "ooh"s and "aah"s (according to the DVD commentary, Davis felt that the dramatic impact of the piece would be lost if the choir was to sing 'This is the one, see what he can do' in plain English). These extracts return in the film's denouement, and in Navras, the track that plays over the closing credits (which may be considered a loose <a href="Remix" title="Remix">remix</a> of "Neodämmerung").
