2&3 are good. they expanded the lore to be much more interesting, made agent smith a much more compelling character, threw away the stupid "chosen one" and "freedom fighter" cliches in favor of making the movies more about humanity's ability to choose rather than compliance and accepting inevitability, and had amazing scenes. i honestly don't know what people were expecting to see from those movies, but i bet every idea they would come up with instead would be stupid or redundant.
