* AuthorsSavingThrow: Creator/TheWachowskis finally explained what happened to Neo during the six month time gap. The game itself is this to fans who wanted "the Neo game" and were disappointed by ''VideoGame/EnterTheMatrix'' focusing on side characters.

* {{Narm}}: Towards the last phase of the final battle, Smith yells, "This is my world, Mr. Anderson, MY WORLD!" Which he follows up with a long pause and scrunching up his face in rage. Not only is it ridiculous in concept, but it looks hilarious with the dated graphics.

* HilariousInHindsight: Creator/TheWachowskis' [[BreakingTheFourthWall fourth-wall-breaking]] speech explaining why they changed the ending comes off as this for ''Franchise/MassEffect'' fans. They said that the cerebral, biblically-inspired HeroicSacrifice from the films wouldn't translate well to a video game. Sure enough, ''VideoGame/MassEffect3'' got torn to shreds by the fans when Creator/BioWare tried to end the series in a similar way to the ''Matrix'' films.

* BigLippedAlligatorMoment: Being ''The Matrix'', anything can distort and occur when you least expect it. And yet despite the superhuman kung-fu, the ghosts and vampires, and all the other weird stuff in the story for the sake of RuleOfCool, the moment that pops up right the heck out of nowhere are human-sized giant ant monsters. That fight you with martial arts too and need to be [[KillItWithFire put down with fire.]] It all but occurs to just give you something to fight in-between story beats and never really gets emphasized again.

* FoeYay: Smith for Neo. A bit of evidence:
-->'''Smith:''' I can smell you.
** More evidence, the fact that in the later levels one of Smith's main attacks is a DeadlyLunge. Also, no matter if Morpheus is around, the majority of Smiths always gang up on Neo, instead of Morpheus who they could kill much easier.
