Here are two films that are about hundred times deeper than either:
The Face of Another
Yi Yi
The Face of Another

Inception is deeper.
The Matrix: A definition of a trance.
Inception: A step by step process on how to jack info while in trance.
Check out "Alice In Wonderland" to go deeper.

Also: "Time Out of Joint", by the great Philip K. Dick.
Yeah, anything by Philip K. Dick tops these films.
Moon by Duncan Jones was a surprisingly interesting and deep sci-fi movie.
SPOILER WARNING: Dark City, and the 13th Floor both deal with the theme of living in simulations. The 13th Floor was adapted from a great book called "Simulacron 3" by D.F. Galouye. Well worth a read.
Also check out "Permutation City" by Greg Egan. His novel "Diaspora" also touches on this.
There's also a novel whose name and author I can't remember which deals with a world wherein most of humanity has migrated into "the Bin", a simulated world. Anyone know of this?
And SPOILER WARNING: "Bios" and "The Harvest", by the always excellent Robert Charles Wilson.

I think the philosophical substance in Matrix 2 and 3 is good, but the movies were poorly executed.
The Matrix got most of it's ideas/style from a comic called the Invisibles. Well worth a read (warning, it's all kinds of trippy)
Just watch both. They are both worth it for different reasons.
I agree that the matrix sequels are a letdown and best just to pretend they don't exist.
And how can I get deeper still, I wish to explore.

As much as I loved Inception, The Matrix with its allegory of the cave, when applied to modern society, just takes the cake for me.
And I am pretending those other two Matrix movies don't exist.

How about V for Vendetta?
Yes, although I almost don't put it in the same category and can't easily describe why, Cloud Atlas is an important film.
In a sense "Cloud Atlas" was even deeper than "Matrix"
Which is deeper?
