Are we even talking about the same films here? The one where Neo spins that tube around knocking all the Agent Smiths over and then spins round it kicking them all, that's the best film, and the special effects even hold up today - unlike 'The Matrix'.
Do you really not see the guys that are clearly not Hugo Weaving in that scene? Pause at 2:49 and look at their faces.
Even more hilariously. Do you really not see the Agent Smiths turn into plastic at exactly 3:00 minutes, where they decided doing CGI instead using doubles was easier? If you want you can watch part 2 and see that Neo spinning that tube around looks utterly terrible as well at certain points, as he as well has become a full CGI. The quality of the CGI gets worse as the numbers increase, looking pretty terrible eventually. The animations aren't that great either.
