Fun fact: the actor who plays the Keymaker also plays the underground doctor in the John Wick movies
and he is also the ki master in dragon ball evolution
you mean the underground doctor in the John Wick movies also played the key maker in the Matrix Movies
And the "only human" agent is in john wick. And morpheus. Thered actually quite a few cameos and references from the matrix movies in john wick. In john wick 3 he literally says "guns... lots of guns"
No shit
@@cocainelsdxtc we don’t talk about that….
Eric: "We need a room like this...with weapons on the wall."
Me: **looks at wall behind Calvin confused**
I was about to comment how rick pointed at them right after Eric said that lmao, this made me laugh much harder than I should’ve
Not enough
Smith - "MORE"
uh they watched this on release and now pretending they never did
comeon why should they react to a movie they have seen ???? this gets retarded... people suggest stuff that almost all have seen.
I’m one of the fortunate few who love the whole trilogy. Would love to see you react to the Animatrix!
Matrix’s definitely one of the movies I can watch over and over again
Second is okay, but Third really sucks
@@ryansmith-jr4gn They were for me. Loved both and I've seen both numerous times. Not up to par with the original but its my favorite movie of all-time.
@@ryansmith-jr4gn Second is way better than many of you give it credit for. Revolutions on the other hand......some cool ideas, but not awesome.
@@Tzoppo11 i disagree
@@sir_stride Okay? Cool. Thanks for letting me know.
Rewatched the second and third one last year and it’s way better then I remembered. Underrated trilogy.
100% agree.
Fun fact: Adam Savage, Jamie Hyneman and Grant Imahara (RIP) from MythBusters all worked as model makers on this and the third movie!
Tory Belleci too. I'm pretty sure you can see him working on part of the dock miniature in one of the BTS features on the Revolutions DVD.
Wait, Grant died?
@@Psycorde brain aneurysm a few years ago.
@@TheOriginalHairyDave oh, that's terrible. RIP Grant.
D'oh! Totally forgot about Tory! 🤦
And yes, sadly Grant passed away last year. 😕
50:51 to quote the Architect "You have many questions and though the process has altered your consciousness, you remain irrevocably human. Ergo some of my answers you will understand and some you will not. Concordintly while your first question is the most pressing, it is also the most irrelevant ". This translates to "I know you wanna know wtf is going on, but coming here has made you different from everyone else. But you're still human. So some answers will make sense. The rest won't. I know your biggest question, and it is completely useless" So it stands to reason that(like in other sci-fi) he's more like a machine then your average human. And only seeing the Architect accomplished that.
Also, the Architect’s chair is named Linda. She’s built for two and vibrates.
@@1vandread and she vibrates bzzzzz
......no that was from the MTV spoof to make fun of the Architect speech. Therefore doesn't count
@@bemasaberwyn55 i think that is the joke they are making^^
I actually liked the entire trilogy.
I really enjoy matrix reloaded, particularly the agent Smiths versus Neo fight. My head canon for why the CG animation looks dated is that the matrix is attempting to keep the frame rate of the fight up by lowering the resolution of the character models
And the Smith virus is causing audio glitches so we get bowling pin sound effects
i have the same head canon, and it totally fits. Neo is bending the "physics" of the Matrix afterall
Thanks for updating my head cannon.
@@slaya070492 Anytime!
comeon why should they react to a movie they have seen ???? this gets retarded... people suggest stuff that almost all have seen.
All the action scenes in The Matrix are GOD TIER.
THE ARCHITECT TIER
“Sais doesn’t matter” is my favorite thing Aaron has ever said.
Was pretty clever.
Movie issues aside, the Merovingian fight is probably my favorite of the series. The choreography is great and it really feels like he’s fighting multiple attackers at once unlike some other movies where the baddies are dancing around in the background and coming in 1 at a time to fight the protagonist.
Pretty sure that Corridor Crew reacted to this scene in one of their episodes (don't remember if it was CGI reaction or stuntment reaction). Turns out a lot of it is practical.
Yes the chateau scene is the best fight sequence in the trilogy
The choreography is great? You're high on drugs, my god.
"I like the moves, it just feels a little slow"
I mean... that's the point :P Neo at this point is "the One", and the agents are nothing more than a nuisance, it's why he starts out with only 1 hand for defending against them. When he realizes they have gotten "upgrades", he uses two hands but still only a "fraction of his power" as per the Shaggy meme.
You have to remember that you can compare the Matrix basically to a virtual reality game. It's why Neo can break the rules so effortlessly because his mind is unlocked as it were, and he sees the Matrix fully as code only (as we saw in the Matrix). I assume another reason the fighting itself is also shown this way for the audience, same way in Dragonball Z you often just see large parts of fights even though they're literally moving faster than light at times.
I wish there was a longer fight with the twins. Was such a bad ass scene/score when they were fighting Morpheus.
I actually enjoyed Reloaded more than the first one and I love the first one.
I love them all and just think of them as one story. I don't have to like one more than the other, they all compliment each other well.
I'm glad I'm not alone in this regard.
@@PhenomResurrections08 True it would be cool if they made a trilogy with all the films edited togther seamlessly.
@@Ebb0Productions I honestly didn't know how divisive Reloaded was/is until I got a little older.
@@SolidSnake240 people with short attention spans are allergic to deep storytelling lol
The fight scenes in this movie are so legendary and so unmatched, truly one of the greatest one-on-one/many fight choreography movies ever made.
First half is kinda...so so, but you can't beat that highway scene man, freaking amazing set piece. Morpheus gets some of his most badass moments in Reloaded.
I love that the lead choreographer on these movies is who directs John Wick
And Keanu’s stuntman 🙂
As all over the road as the plot of this movie is, the action scenes are honestly some of the best in action movie history.
The city park fight against all the Smiths, the fight in the hall of the mansion with the walls covered in weapons, the HIGHWAY FIGHT SCENE!!!
Burly Brawl, Chateau and the freeway are top notch action set piece with KILLER SCORE from Don S Davis and Juno Reactor
Was about to make almost the same conment. Does it 100% make sense. Uh...I don't know. Are those action scenes 100% entertaining and impressive? Absolutely yes.
cringe
I dont get the hate for the Matrix sequels. @Dark Jedi Knight 'As all over the road as the plot of this movie is' What are you referring to here, the plot is easy to follow. Only thing i saw (even back at release) was that the Neo-Smith x 1000 fight looked/looks terrible. Edit; added tag to OP
@@matt36866 for me I can excuse the rough CG given when this film was made(it holds up better than say son of the mask). What I don't get is the hypocrisy of many of these people comparing this film to empire strikes back(in their words a shitty sequel compared to "the greatest sequel of all time"). They bring up the rough CG in this film, but ignore things that Lucas later fixed with esb.
17:12 So THAT'S what Morpheus was doing against the Twin! All these years I thought he was throwing CDs at him!
Strange seeing Michael without him yelling Walt
Never understood the dislike for the sequels, imo they seemed like natural progressions from where The Matrix started. They're not perfect (especially the CGI humans... oof that's rough) but in terms of choreography the movies are awesome.
People never like sequels, popular to hate on sequels apparently 🤷♀️ I loved them
Most of the action sequences were pretty boring to me.
@@Im_not_a_lesbian I mean, to each their own, but to me it sounds like you’re saying you just don’t enjoy action ._.
The fact that 2 and 3 released within six months of one another didn't help tbh. I think people got kind of burned out at the time
I really like reloaded but I hate revolution I don't see how you can defend that. I mean if you enjoyed it cool but I can't find any redeeming qualities to it
I remember talking about this movie for waaaay too long when it came out. I still love it...I care not for any CG problems...I enjoy it every time.
The first Matrix movie is about birth, life, identity, truth, awakening to greater truths
the second Matrix movie is about Life, Choice (Free Will) verses Determinism or Cause and Effect, and faith, and how blind faith is not a good thing...
I always loved parts outside of the matrix, one of the reasons why i loved the last movie so much
The reason why the animation from the Smith fight holds up (aside from the ragdoll physics) even though the textures don't, it's because it was done with mocap, and probably keyframe animation to fill in the parts that defy the laws of physics.
A little more detail on what the architect meant:
The first iteration or V1.0 of the Matrix was a perfect world, which the human minds rejected.
V 2.0 was the Nightmare Matrix with demons and ghosts and vampires which was ultimately rejected by the human mind as well. (The twin ghosts and the people walking on the walls are from V2.0 that weren't deleted courtesy of the Merovengian)
The Oracle then introduced the variable of 'choice' for V3.0, the human mind can accept or reject to choose the matrix, all the errors that led to the rejection of the Matrix are compiled and 'The One' is the sum compilation of all those errors. He is given the powers to 'make him believe' that he is the Messiah and the savior of people (you'll see why later in the post)
The people that reject the matrix are put into, you guessed it Zion. The machines purposely let humans leave and go to Zion as they are trying to compile all the shortcomings of the Matrix so that the next version of it has a much better success rate of acceptance.
The scene with Neo and Architect has happened before 6 times, making the current matrix V3.6. The Architect informs Neo that Zion will now be destroyed BUT Neo has the choice to save 23 of them by picking the first door that leads to the source code. By doing that he merges with the source code and an improved version of the matrix is loaded. Zion is destroyed either way. The underlying complex of the Messiah made the previous the Ones choose the first door and save the 23 of them rather than let the whole humanity die.
But Neo chooses Trinity breaking the cycle.

30:20 An interesting theory I read somewhere regarding the bad CGI and weird "bowling balls" sound effect during the fight against the multiple agents Smith. It basically states that it was intentional from the Wachowski. This would be because the Matrix is not able to process so many programs running at the same time and its image rendering is affected by it. I kind of like this one :)
That's interesting.
@@parsman9914 right? I mean it's probably a fan's theory but Indo like it.
My introduction to Monica Bellucci and I've been a fan ever since!
So happy right now!! Great reaction guys, been waiting on this one for a longgg time and can't wait for the third
Fun fact: With the Asian fight scene, they wanted the one and only Jet Li, but he refused because they had to capture his entire body as a CG model, and he didn't want them to have the ability to use him in the future without his permission, or recreate him in any way in any other projects (as they did with the new Star Wars, for example, when they completely CGed the dead actor, since the tech is good enough now that you can re-create entire actors fairly decently (it's called a 'CG double')). Very wise of Jet, though it would have been good for his career if he had been in this film!
The freeway chase scene.
Man, it will always hold up.
Like, most of those stunts they did was real. They crashed multiple cars. Carrie Ann Moss actually learned and drove that motorbike.
The freeway chase was my favorite part of the movie because of how intense it was the cars crashing guns firing the cops chasing,twins phasing through the other car,agents shooting and jumping on the cars
I personally love the agent smith arc, of being able to replicate himself, of being a non threat in the second one, to being the main threat in the third, I think its brilliant
one of my top favorite trilogies.. I'm sure for many other people also..
i have also looked at the ghost twins as being outdated agents of sorts. Agents are identical (almost) to each other, like the twins are. The twins are basically impervious to bullets like the agents. Swords can hurt agents, but they just switch bodies and in a world where guns are the preferred weapon, they might not need to worry too much about swords and knife (especially when their physical speed are much greater than both the twins and matrix infiltrators). However, the ability to faze does also create opportunities to escape as we saw in the highway scene, where the twin got fazed out of the car. The ability to just shift host body is more practical in a world with billions of host bodies.
I believe their actual lore is that they were from one of the older matrix's and payed The Merovingian to set them free
The actual lore is that they're from an older "Hell" version of the matrix so to speak. Along withe the werewolf bodyguards from this movie, and the vampires working for the Merovingian in the 3rd movie. A sort of matrix where ghost, demons, and all those kinds of things were real...
I do like your head canon. The twin phasing ability is awesome though.
@@shawntlucas90 And Seraph is from the first iteration, the "heaven" version.
@@yotuel9064 Yep. It'd be cool to see what those versions of the matrix where like in a spin off or something
22:57 that comment killed me 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The conversation with the architech is still one of the best scripted moments in all cinema
"Why not kill them?"
I always interpreted their survival and creation of Zion as another form of control over eventual One. The One's love for humanity, as embodied by the rebels he's come to know, is what controls the One to the point that they choose to reboot. But now, apparently, Neo's love is too overpowering/overwhelming that he can't let it go and do the "better" thing for humanity.
The Chateau fight is simply iconic.
"Handle us? You'll handle us?!"
My favorite quote :D
Doing the Smith swarm fight in The Path of Neo was so much fun.
15:26 "Sai's doest matter" that was a great line!
11:40 "What do you mean I don't have permission to delete the file? I'M THE ADMINISTRATOR!"
The franchise is important. It's history.
50:45 I kind of got it with this re-watch. Neo got "WiFi aka "telepathic" connection to the machines. Machines are sentient (alive) and would have consciousness or minds similar enough to humans. Like Star Trek with Picard's connection with the Borg.
Neo was supposed to have chosen the other door, that's where he differs from the previous chosens
the cicle should have rebooted then
but he chose love and from that point on, everything was new
also there was a new variant, Smith
In the previous cicles there was no virus in the Matrix
All set up by oracle
Just realized..
"That is Martian Manhunter!" and Young Hercule's Chiron.
Yes Commander Jason Locke(F**K ME, I JUST got the deadbolt joke that the captains keep making) is played by Henry Lenix. I think this was my intro to him
A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one.
The Burly Brawl,The Chateau Fight and the Highway chase are action scenes that still hold up to this day.
I for one loved both part 2 and 3 of the Matrix. Are they as good as the 1st one? No, but it's my favorite movie of all-time.
The matrix is my favourite trilogy of all time. The films get better as they go on. If I hear rick say anything I’m flying over to beat him.
The "scale of ridiculousness" of that fight scene is exactly the kind of thing that happens in a lucid dream in a similar "action" sequence. At some point your focus gets to an even higher level of awareness, and then you start flying and controlling the weather or whatever, and noticing and reacting to everything that happens. It's like a blur of like when you get in a zone when gaming and when you fly in a fully aware lucid dream. But the step by step, incremental escalation of what Neo did is very similar to when you're lucid in a dream, and you come up against an impossibility, but because you know you're dreaming, you think to yourself, "Nope," and choose to take even more control of the dream and make possible the impossible. It's here where you start verging on completely waking up, but it's such a cool feeling, and this scene reminds me so much of it.
Listening to the Philosopher's commentary on the Ultimate edition really helped me appreciate this and the next sequel more. The way they explore how each realm or factions of the franchise, all THREE realms, Matrix, representing the Mind, the real world, representing the Body and the machine world/programs representing the human Spirit (of invention and creativity and legacy) and how they co-exist and interact.
Also that Neo is not just a being of both the Matrix and the real world, but of all three, because the machines programmed the abilities of the One into him, so he is a creature of all three realms, And once he connects to the Source, the Machine world 's connection to the Matrix, he's able to influence the machine's and their codes. That Neo sees programs from the machine world as golden light (ala Seriph) shows how they are not of the Matrix, and is relevant to the sequel.That's why I think "Matrix in a Matrix" theory so many fans wanted to happen is kinda lame and a bit trite.
Also, while that dance scene IS too long, it is also some foreshadowing for how Neo will chose Trinity alone over the entirety of Zion as a group. He already made that choice, now he has to understand it.
In the Burly Man Fight, while it's getting more and more ridiculous, the movie seems self-aware at how ridiculous ot is, which is where those sound effects come in. They help emphasize how ridiculous it is so that the viewer isn't taken out of the scene by the ridiculousness, but instead rides along with it.
I'd really like to see someone do reactions to some of the Making Of videos from the Ultimate Matrix Collection (hint, hint)
The matrix explained channel has some great theories for those sound effects as well.
Maybe that's part of Neo's power. The power to generate comical sound effects.
Man, I agree with Rick like 99%. When he said "The first 15 minutes or so were super boring" I was like THANK YOU! Good stuff BW!
I loved the MTV Movie Awards skit with Will Ferrell, Sean William Scott, and Justin Timberlake for this.
This trilogy took a lot of inspiration from hindu philosophy the writers told that in an interview and also when neo fights with agent in final battle the soundtrack is Asto ma sadgamaya (sanskrit shlok) which means please disconnect me from this illusionary world
What a coincidence! Yesterday I watched another of my favorite reaction channels Badd Medicine, do the original movie and now you guys are doing the sequel!
All those ghost are from previous Matrix program.. the first Matrix was called "HEAVEN"..
The ghosts were supposedly agents from an earlier version of the matrix
A lot of the scenes in this film go over the heads of persons who didn’t play online FPS games in the late 90s. We would often get script kiddies coming into open servers in games like ‘Quake’, or ‘Jedi Knight: Dark Forces II’, and they would first subtly hack the game to their advantage…until they were caught, at which point they’d do things like fill the map with ‘clones’ of their own character, or they would start randomly rebuilding the level in the midst of a game. The ‘Matrix’ films get a great deal of their imagery from that kind of stuff. At the time, those of us who were into that scene and were in our teens to early-20s got a special kick out of the familiarity of a scene like the one in which Neo fights an entire army of Smiths.
19:10 it's like you finally beat the final boss of a video game
The fight against the henchmen with all the weapons, and the highway chase scene are seriously amazing. Regardless of any of your other feelings about the movie, those scenes are pretty incredible
Matrix went thru several variants
1.0 - Paradise/Heaven matrix: Failure, despite total contentment, whole crops failed
2.0 - NIghtmare matrix: characters and suffering
7.0 Current matrix, most equalibrium, longest lasting before system failure and re-upload
Rewatching the original trilogy, something I love is that these movies weren't afraid to have fun with their action scenes. They weren't afraid to delve deep into the cool, campy vibe of it all - especially scenes like Neo vs the many Smiths or the long car/bike chase. And that's what makes them still so fun to watch years later.
Also, how excellent are all the performances?? You'd be hard put to find a villain performance now as memorable as Weaving's.
It's funny how some people crap all over Matrix 2 and 3 yet these movie's were very successful!!! The box-office for Matrix 2 was $738,576,929 dollars. I understand that the Architect scene lost some people but it was interesting because it was different. The first was the BEST but i enjoyed 2 and 3 in the theater very very much along with the audience. I remember it was jam packed at the movies so much fun!!!
so? box office does not mean a movie is good.
@@MoviesAndTvShowsAreSubjective It was a pretty a good movie overall. Avatar was pretty cool but was it the best movie ever made? No it wasn't but i respect what it accomplished. You didn't like it but for an R rated film to become the highest grossing R rated film at the time is VERY difficult to do. I enjoyed it like many other people did as well.
"Ok you have some skill"
@Blind Wave That main agent in the first fight was also in the first John Wick movie. He was the head security guy for the Russian gangster.
@Blind Wave There was a rumor back then that Seraph was originally supposed to have been one of Neo's predecessors. I'm not sure how true that was, but he definitely was meant to have had a much larger role in the films had Jet Li taken the role on.
It goes like this: Matrix-Brawl, Matrix Reloaded-Burly Brawl, and Revolutions-Super Burly Brawl.
Awwwww!!! SHI***** I've been waiting for this.
Oh no, Jet Li slander! It wasn't cause he wanted more money, it was cause the company would own his martial art moves forever as an intellectual property, which he could not abide.
Shout-out to Roy Jones Jr...for his cameo
18:00 "He landed on his keys!" XD
The keymaker's face right there actually made the line even more funny. lol
In regards to who built Zion I always believed it was the last bit of the humans that built it at least that's the impression I got from the two-parter on the animatrix that kind of showed the history and how the world got that way
If I ever become famous enough to warrant a biography I want Hugo Weaving to narrate it. Such an awesome cadence in his speaking
Oh, something most people miss, when Neo bursts back out of the Source to rescue Trinity, the fire behind him ISN'T part of his power, he's just outrunning the explosion from the bomb they had to shut the power down to avoid triggering.
hoping for an Animatrix reaction too
Gotta love the music score
Look into the details of the nightmare matrix to understand the twins and the ones killed by the silver bullets. Remember that there were previous failed installations of the matrix.
The one agent is also in the first John Wick. He throws Keanu off of a balcony in a club and then later in the movie hits him with a car.
Smith carries a piece of the anomaly's code after Neo jumped inside him in the first movie. That was the system's way of balancing itself
i think during the fight scene with neo and all the agent smiths, the matrix used the sounds of dominos and bowling pins because the matrix has no sound for loads of agents smiths being knocked over...so it used those sounds as there is no sound for it...
Hey guys, at the end you're wondering what Neo gave Smith. He gave him the ability to love someone, one person. For Neo that one is Trinity. For Agent Smith it is himself. That's why he is copying himself over and over again. In the digital world (the matrix) it is possible to copy perfectly, for example a picture, or Smith's code on to a diffrent entity, in the physical world that perfection can not be reached. Just my thought tho.
The freeway sequence is absolutely epic. I loved this movie as a kid. say what you want about the sequels, but they knew what they wanted to do and they went for it. as silly as they were, they wernt bad in the way the theatrical Justice League was for example. they wernt compromised, they were just excessive. but cool movies for what they are
See The Animatrix, an anthology of nine stories. It expands on the origins of the matrix and some characters... but best of all though is _Beyond,_ about a haunted house.
Jet Li didn't pull out because he asked for as much money as Keanu, it was because they wanted to digitally scan his moves and techniques into a computer to user for future projects after Jet Li helped come up with the routine for the fight and he said no to that as his fighting was his artform and felt it should belong to him.
28:00 well about that! Lambert Wilson (Merovingian) is french ^^.
God Damn Rick...
THERE CAN ONLY BE ONE.
Seraph is a challenge/Login program. Basically, a Captcha with fists.
This reaction, the movie and unreal 5 demo. Its the reawakening of the Matrix!
Man, your comment about Smith’s new powers being a natural evolution of the normal agents’ ability to take over one person and then leave is such a great point and I’d never thought of that before. I absolutely adore all three Matrix films and I love listening to new perspectives on the franchise, I learn so many cool new things that never crossed my mind before. You guys rock!
The machines/sentinels/squiddies probably didn't use a bomb in the first movie because they may have had an order to retrieve Cypher for reinsertion.
1. How did ya'll feel about the post-credits teaser trailer for The Matrix Revolutions.
2 Will you guys watch 'The Animatrix'-the anime short film collection (pre-dating Star Wars Visions).
This is my favorite Matrix movie. I must not be a cinephile I guess. Yeah the original movie is original, but this movie made me LOVE this franchise.
this was soooo good
Eric and Keanu.
2 great men who age like fine wine.
keanu and jet li one day should do a movie
Jam packed action . . .
