    Based on what I've read, WB kept pushing for a new Matrix, the Wachowskis said no but after losing their parents they said okay. However the movie was pretty much used as a coping mechanism (hence the resurrected characters) and possibly also a mean to satisfy WB's constant nagging. So they clearly didn't put up too much effort for the quality.

      The "joke" meta stuff was bad, but for me it was the "serious" meta stuff that was truly egregious. Like the digs at Ben Shapiro, or when Toilet-Brush Head goes into a diatribe to Neo in the real world about how "they" take your experiences and weaponize them for themselves against you, which was a painfully obvious commentary on the "Right Wing" supposedly hijacking the term Red Pill (Wachoski openly admitted the entire reason "she" made the film was to reclaim the term for the Left).
      Add onto that all the really gross stuff about family bonds being an illusion and used to imprison you (and the key to liberation and being your true self is to sever those ties) and the whole movie just comes across as one giant self-therapy session for Lana Wachowski. Lana is clearly a messed up human being and this movie felt like their attempt at rationalising their unhealthy coping strategies.... Almost as though Lana has spent a lot of time in therapy and didn't like what their therapists said, and they made an entire movie as a way to explain why the therapists were wrong - which explains why the villain of this movie is literally depicted as a therapist... 🤷‍♂️

    First, we have to circumvent canon.
    Resurrect Trinity and Neo.
    Next, construct a backstory around *why* the machines would not only resurrect them but keep them alive.
    Sprinkle it with liberal use of flashbacks.
    Add a touch of modern political philosophy.
    It's a fanfiction, without two of the major characters. Four, if you count the Oracle and the Architect.

    Sad thing is there's a hint of a even better movie in that disaster with the machine Civil War. Human involvement through the Matrix would have made sense and you still get the awesome fights these movies are known for. The humans could even have some infighting over who which side in the civil war to choose. I could imagine two separate crews going into the Matrix to fight over it. Perhaps the humans could finally come to the surface to build a new city with the help of the machines and we see a new Society integrating human & Machines who decide to live in both the Matrix & the real world in the end.

      Kind of agree with you.
      The first 3 films were a perpetual Buddhist reincarnation of the matrix story to balance the humans as they live in slavery or blue pill fake living. The last rendition of agent smith was a virus that could end both civilizations, human and robots. Trinity and Neo died as heroes. It was bigger than those two and their love story.
      The new ideas in this film could have begun a fascinating sci fi world outside of the matrix.

      The problem is that this movie really should have taken his age into account while working out the fight scenes. Keanu might not have the physical strength and speed necessary for the fast-paced fights of the original movies, but focusing instead on timing, strikes meant to disable or weaken his opponent, and taking a slower and more strategic approach would have made up for that. Using lazy Taken-style quick cuts just highlights how this version of Neo is an inferior knock-off of himself.

    I'm old enough to remember when the original Matrix came out. The Internet was still in its infancy (no leaks or social media at the time), and the one thing that made that movie so special back then was the fact that so little was known about it. The first trailers were very cryptic, with most of the marketing consisting of asking people the question *What is the Matrix?* and I remember that lots of people barely knew what they were going to watch when they bought the tickets.
    The second and third were not as good because they were running out of creative juice and ended up relying too much on action. They still had a few good ideas in Reloaded, but failed to deliver in Revolutions. We still felt compelled to go watch them though because we wanted to know how the story was going to end.
    With this entry, however, there's no surprise element anymore. It tries to reminisce on what once was but the whole thing feels off since the world has changed too much since 1999-2003. This movie feels like going out on a Saturday night, getting drunk, hooking up with your ex-girlfriend you haven't seen in almost 20 years and expecting to get that spark going again. It's not going to happen. She's now divorced, overweight, and you can no longer relate to each other at any deeper level. You'll just leave with a bitter aftertaste and end up regretting the whole thing.

    The irony is that there was still a story to tell about the Matrix, it just didn't need Neo anymore... This was one of the few moments where it actually would have been better to have an entirely new cast which is hilarious. At the end of the third movie people are given the choice to unplug and humanity has regained its footing in the world, we actually get to see glimpses of this with the machines in Zion actually creating synthetic food which function like the plant counterparts except they don't need the sun.
    Here is where the story comes in... Earth is still fucked. The sky is still blocked by swarms of nanites and the planet is essentially dead, which means that humanity is actually in a really messed up situation of needing the energy that comes from harnessing themselves as well as the help of the machines to be able to actually come up with a solution to save the future of nature on earth. The script practically writes itself and you could even have a whole other trilogy spawned from this in sequence... The Matrix Reflections(Humanity is trapped with the machines in needing the matrix in order to fix the world), The Matrix Requiem(the sky is no longer covered by nanites, which means both the machines and humans no longer need each other however the Matrix has kept both going for so long that the shutdown does not happen easily for either side with factions for and against on both sides), and The Matrix Reborn(The radical factions cause chaos both in and out of the Matrix for both sides until the unified humans and machines work together for the common future. What started as a tool for slavery and power harvesting is also a tool for knowledge and allowing humans to instantly learn whatever is needed, the movie ends with the machine hivemind looking to the sky with our protagonist standing next to them).

      Wicks fight are brutal, but less flamboyant with short and clean moves, close to the body and the target.
      Matrix fights are basically like Old School Kung Fu movies, lots of movements, Leg work and Kicks, wich would be difficult for Him now, lets not kid ourselfs.
      So they came up with that Jedi/Force push stuff, where all he does is push his hands forward and shit just flies away...
      There is the Figth with Walmart Smith, but its filmed really close, there's lot of shit flying around and the camera is shaky, so you hardly really get a good look at whats happening.
      And this is also another issue of this movie, it looks like they got a Figth Choregropaher that has never seen 2 people fight in their lives and certainly never saw any of the Matrix movies...

    I had my own ideas about the next instalment of the series, I think that I should have sent them in.
    The first problem was with how the movie started. I'm still trying to decide what was worst, that the start was irrelevant to the film story or that it was thoroughly confusing. Inception on steroids.
    For starters, I wouldn't have jumped the story 60 years in to the future. I would have found a more interesting way to bring Neo and Trinity back to life or for them to have survived as we don't actually know for sure that they died.
    Trinity could had just lost consciousness instead of dying and there were two reasons for a strong case for neo not dying.
    First, the last scene of his showd the machine city, as he would have been seeing it when he lost his eyesight. Second, the Oracle said at the end of the movie that she expected that they would be seeing Neo again.
    The most interesting elements of the series, seem to be what's mentioned to have happened but not shown in the movies.
    That's a lot of wasted good plot possibilities that a much better movie could have been made of. For instance, Neo and Trinity could have survived and as Neo had powers in the real world and Trinity seemed to gain some also, they could have played themselves 20 years later and be like older leaders in charge of other awesome fighters but still be powerful and awesome in their own rights, a sort of obi one kanobi character if you will.
    The young boy who got himself out of the matrix was the only person who had managed to do that in the movie so he would have to have had some series abilities so it was a complete waste not making him the most powerful character or the next "the one" so his story set up in the animation and in the films was just pointless.
    The new movie would have been much better if it was much closer to the time of the previous movie and followed on more sequentially in the story bring about what was just mentioned in the new movie.
    On the plus side, I did like now Morpheus was portrayed but not that he was a machine character. It would have been better if he was a real person and say, the son of Mortheus. After all, Morpheus was with Naomi at the end of the previous movie and they could have played themselves as a married couple in the same way as Brendon Fraser was married with a grown son in the last The Mummy movie.
    If the new movie just retained some of it's older but still stronger characters along with one or two newer ones with some powers and it took up where things began to change and go wrong after the peace treaty time, the new movie could have been a great one and set the stage for another couple of awesome following movie.
    This last one wraps things up pretty neatly but it's such a waste of a series that had a lot of potential which ultimately, got completely wasted.

    Studios attempted to use diversity as an attempt to rebrand its image as friendly companies gaining its audiences. The Matrix Resurrections proved this by introducing multiple weaknesses for a franchise already destroyed by its previous sequels.
    Its attempts to break the fourth wall and go meta within its own universe didn't fit. Its attempts to use female empowerment and feminism as plot points for both new and returning characters are undermined by being obvious. Its attempts to paint men as mindless programs jumping out of buildings instead of spending time with their wives is meh. And its attempts to jump back and forth between the scenes of the trilogy and the film looks like it's made by people with actual mental illnesses.
    Also, Keanu Reeves' performance screams John Wick more than Neo.

I was hoping that they were going to turn it around and make everything Neo went through in this movie be some sort of containment program where he has to go through the same events over and over again in some sort of sisyphusian punishment for rocking the boat so hard in the first movies. If the first movie was an exploration of the allegory of the cave, this one then being caves within caves.
    Sadly that was not the case, and all the weird commentary on modern media and sequels, and the strange misuse of the color blue with many of the characters was for nothing.

    The fight choreography is subpar + the cinematographer either failed to record them at the proper fps and/or the editing team failed to speed them up so they could actually look fast and impressive. The fight sequences looked unimpressive and just too damn slow.
    Also, the cinematographer mostly recorded the fight sequences in a close up, there weren’t enough wide shots to show off the action (like the first one). That or the editors mostly included close ups. Either way, I was baffled by this decision. The first one leaned on wide shots to really wow us with Neo’s fight prowess. This was the worst movie I’ve watched in a long time.

The worse part of Matrix Resurrections is that it is so ridiculous that the great philosophy behind it is now dampened, buried, or even mocked. And the second worst is Lana, probably thinking "they didn't get it, I'm too avant garde and it's the audience's fault that they don't love my, my, my masterpiece!”

      Actually I think it would be more akin to "There are more important things in life than this stupid franchise that's gonna keep with or without us, so I might as well flip WB off while also kowtowing to them." It's confused, to say the least.

      Not really. If you put a twenty-year younger Keanu in a John Wick movie he'd be just as the Drinker says here. He'd move far quicker than Old Keanu moves. The only reason its passable is because the Wick movies are all highly choreographed. Watch some of the combat and you'll see Wick's opponents pause for a hair of a second so Keanu can block their punches and kicks. I'm Keanu's age and the realty is I'm just not as quick, fluid, and strong as I was twenty years ago. Aging is a bitch, and it creeps up on you ever so slowly until one day it hits you. Damn. I'm old.

    A few of the things that pissed me off:
    1) The stakes are high, but nothing bad happens. In the Matrix, people died. A lot. Almost the entirety of the ship's crew got merked. Tons of people in Zion died. The main character dies in the end. Nobody in this game dies but the bad guys. Even if Neo and Trinity died, Zion would still exist and the world would go on as it did before.
    2) Neo and Trinity have superpoweres. In the original, when Neo acquired the ability to dodge and stop bullets, he didn't have to exert himself. It was a fundamental trait of his connection to the matrix; he could intuitively do these things because he had gone beyond the bounds of the system's programing, and could alter portions of it at will. He couldn't fly, he could "fall" in different directions, because while he was still bound by some of the laws of the matrix, he could manipulate how they were implemented. In this new one, he's got to use his stupid forcefield to deflect shit and you can hang suspended in air like Superman because now we're an MCU/DC comics movie. Fuck off Hollywood.
    3) The movie plays like a theme park ride. Oh, let's go to Zion, oh look it's so quiet, oh hey we're growing food with these freaky nanobot machines, oh look those machines look and act like animals for no fucking reason, oh no we're in prison now, oh look a jailbreak and we're going to go save Trinity yay. What a fucking joke. The movie treated the audience like we were children and had to have everything explained to us.

Stories of the Oracle and the choices she made that cost her so much, stories of seraph, stories of sati sand her family, stories of dozer and mouse and their families, stories of cypher's awakening and converting...

      They should probably just leave the Matrix alone. It was a groundbreaking movie that was very much ‘of its era’, followed by two okay sequels that didn’t really need making either. I don’t need ‘more’ of them, I want to see something new and exciting. People reward Hollywood too much by going to see sequels… in herds they go and see shit like this then complain when it doesn’t meet their expectations.
