The bewildering conclusion to The Matrix Revolutionsis a powerful warning about the dangers of valuing subtext over narrative clarity.

Birdmanis filled with numerous ambiguous elements, but its finale – which leaves us to wonder whether or not washed-up actor Riggan Thomson has plummeted to his death – takes the cake.
