Yes. The movie was all that and more. Please share with me those hints you
noticed which might lend one the belief that Zion was also a computer
construct. What do you suppose the "reality" of Zion was like? One thing
that really made me think was the Agent Mr. Smith. It was obvious that after
being among humans so long he started to adopt some of our baser habits and
aquire human nature, at least in parts. It certainly implies that humans
were influencing the machine at least as much as the machine manipulated the
humans.

hitherto harmed us little; but someday
the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying
vistas of reality, and of our
frightful position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation
or flee from the deadly light into the
peace and safety of a new dark age." H.P.Lovecraft; "The Call of Cthulhu"
