Do I need to see "Enter Matrix" to understand "Revolutions"?

First off, let me apologize if this is the wrong forum, I didn't know where to put it. Secondly,I am a big fan of the Matrix Trilogy, but when I went and saw "The Matrix Revolutions" there were a few parts that I didn't fully understand. For instance in the beginning when "Neo" was in that "place between the Matrix and the real world", how did he get there? I don't think they explain it in "The Matrix Reloaded", which got me thinking. In the advertisement for the video game "Enter the Matrix", the say that it contains, an hour of video footage just for the game. So does that mean that to fully appreciater and understand part 3, I should check out or buy "Enter the Matrix"(which I am fully willing to do).
Also, any chance this extra hour of footage that was filmed just for the video game, but make it onto Special Edition box set as bonus feature?
All help would be much appreciated.

Not really (and this question would probably better suited in the Movies area).

Enter the Matrix takes place before Part 2, and explains a lot of what happens in that movie. But it's nothing mind-blowing.

Enter the Matrix gives more background information on what's going on in Reloaded.
I thought they explained Neo being jacked into the matrix without a hardline by saying the power of the one transcends the boundry between the matrix and the real.

They also touched upon the origin of the Keymaster, Merovingian, as well as why the Oracle changed appearances.
