The shortest review you will read of "The Matrix Resurrections"
Tuesday, December 28, 2021 at 2:30PM by Nathaniel R
Cons: I didnt understand a lick of The Matrix Resurrection (did you have to memorized the first three?), especially the last act "rescue" involving brain switching which played like a techno-babble illogic exposition in order to give us a botched Sense8 body-switching visual. On the other hand, writer/director Lana Wachowski claiming such ownership from behind the camera felt satisfying despite playing at times like meta snark. Definitely did not enjoy the suggestion that therapists are evil even though the cat with the bell was damn cute.
Pros: Absolutely loved Jonathan Groff as the new "Mr Smith". Witnessing Keanu & Carrie-Anne fall back in love was a good time; they've always looked sensational together and age-appropriate, too, so that was a rare doublesexy 50something thrill. This has been my review.
Yours?

Yavor - lol.
It felt like a MCU movie. And that’s a bad thing just to be clear
I haven't seen it. I'm going to wait for it on HBO next year.
I saw a headline that said something to the effect of "I need two red pills to get through this movie"
My Sister's BF got us some...let's call it cable. And anyway, on Christmas, he spent the day taking up the living room and watching movies, which I can't just fit into my day. I saw a bit of the end of The Matrix, where Neo and Trinity sit at the table...it just seemed like nothing was useful. Also, outside of the first film (which is apparently a great film?), there is no need for any other Matrix films.
