द मेट्रिक्स रेसररेक्शन्स

It was so bad... that I don't have words to discribe it. Never watch if you don't want to compromise your memory about old Matrix.

Every single moment is stupid and not logical.

A lot of effort went into the story, with details and references and self references and in-jokes. And yet, in the last act of the film, it felt like who ever wrote the thing ran out of ideas and just did random things. That felt like a betrayal. Then there was the film itself, which consistently felt less evolved, in both effects and fight choreography, than the original film *from 22 years ago!*. Last but not least, there were the characters. Keanu and Carrie-Ann aside, the rest of the people had no characterization at all and the actors, some I knew from other stuff like Sense8, had less to work with than in the TV series they were grabbed from. Remember how awesome Max Riemelt was in Sense 8? Here he was a yes man with a bad accent. Remember how amazing and fun Lambert Wilson was in the original Matrix films? Here he was no more than an obscenity spouting homeless crazy person. I think Jonathan Groff did a reasonable job, but his character was all over the place. And so on.

I don't want to touch on the sexual orientation of most of the actors or the agenda that is always pushed by the Wackowskis, because it doesn't really matter here. Put all that aside and it's still a mess of a film.

Bottom line: if it were a random low budget scifi, it would have been average. As a sequel to The Matrix, it has great potential and it failed miserably.

After watching the film, I was disappointed. It really turned out to be a half-sequel, half-remake of the original film - that is, the main story is almost the same as in the first part, even some scenes are copied almost frame by frame, only some details are changed and new characters are added, which cannot be compared with the old ones.

The original Matrix still looks better and passes the test of time, it is better to revise it (well, the whole trilogy at the same time).

This movie is completely unnecessary to the Matrix world as sometimes it doesn't even feel like a Matrix movie. If not for the many original trilogy flashbacks sometimes I though I was seeing some king of John Wick 3.5 or any other sci-fi-action movie with Keanu Reeves. His performance is forgetable and sometimes looks like he's parodying himelf. The rest of the cast never got my attention, neither the story, and I have to be honest. I felt the story to be so bad and uninteresting that I had to use my smartphone a lot to avoid sleeping.

I'm not saying you shouldn't watch the movie but be ready for nothing like the original trylogy in any item you can rate a movie. Not even the fight scenes are good as they are badly choreographed and filmed, and the special effect are just the same as any other 2021 movie. Nothing special here.

I had low expectations but this is even worse then I was prepared to.

I've been waiting for this one with anticipation and I was thoroughly disappointed. I spent the first 40 minutes wondering what was going on. It was barely coherent. The rest of the movie got slightly better. But there was no real story. Some parts were enjoyable. Some weren't. But, at the end, I didn't feel like my day had been enriched by watching it and I have no desire to watch it again. The original Matrix, on the other hand, I still watch that at least once a year. This movie was done strictly as a money grab. There was no real story to tell and no journey to follow. I don't recommend it!
