Probably the hokiest interpretation I've read yet.
If you didn't notice the Christ story in the Matix you weren't paying attention. Granted the Watchowski brothers had numerous different ideologies and religious messages in their movies Neo was definitely Christ like. Neo rearranged is one, he dies in a christ like pose, he performs miracles, he is the saviour, he dates a chick named Trinity etc etc.
