The script said nothing about who is right or wrong, or who is good and evil. If you felt those things, you've projected them onto what you were watching.

I'd say the movie was perfect and brought up endless amounts of philosophy. What's to say that choosing the red pill actually woke the person up to "reality"? Perhaps the red pill was another layer within the Matrix to prevent people from experiencing reality.

Did you actually watch the last movie to the end?

The problem with every conceivable philosophy being considered equally valid is that it isn't useful. What's to say that humans destroy the earth? There's no inherent definition of what destruction is vs improvement.
