That sums it up for me too, Matt.

I thought his conversion from being on a mission to destroy humans to having some sympathy and understanding was too sudden...

But I did enjoy the nano-bots as well as Keanu Reeves' genuinely puzzled look when he said to the officials "Your planet?" ... Quite poignant-maybe we sometimes forget that it's not "our" planet; we are just lucky to be along for the ride for a short period of time!

I did like the idea of the nano-bot-type technology....and the concept that the human race does not 'own' the Earth, and that the planet's survival is far more important in the grand cosmic scheme of things than that of the human race.
