Rewatching Matrix Revolutions. Realizing something has always bothered me. The squid-like machines move like they’re underwater rather than in the air. They’re in underground air but aren’t underwater. But dynamics look lighter-than-medium. Avengers I has the same problem.

Matrix Revolutions is so much worse than the rest of the trilogy that it’s like it was made by Michael Bay

Scenes inside the matrix are generally better in all 3. They explicitly play with the “the characters know this is made up physics within a physics engine that you can bend/twist” premise. They flip between magical action and mundane physics as a function of mental state.

The Neo/Agent climactic battle is an operatic setpiece that works that way. They cycle among magic fantasy physics, superhero physics, video game physics, stylized martial arts physics, and real physics. At least 3-4 kinds of inertia in evidence.

hmm this is entirely the point of first movie in the Matrix trilogy too cf Trinity to Neo in the famous bullet scene (still my favorite to this day, esp bc saw in trailer and had no idea what it was) saying "You moved like they do" [this reminded me, just a little, of Petra too]
