Welp I didn't think those maniacs at Warner Bros could do it, but it appears that they managed to make a sequel to a relatively large and successful movie intellectual property colloquially known as The Matrix. Having seen it this morning, I would rate it as 'pretty good'. There's certainly more Matrix, and more Keanu, and more kung-fu. It seems like its more of an open-ended story than the original Matrix, so I would potentially expect a Matrix 5 rezestification Keanu punches Neal Patrick Harris

Movie about old crackers abandoning their brain meds to pretend to do kungfu, somehow the premise is even worse than the original

I thought it was a pretty fun movie. It wasn't as stylish visually as the others but it was enjoyable and the overall story was actually interesting to watch.

are the original sisters still involved? or did they let someone else take over? [edit] looks like only Lana Wachowski is involved but the reviews are better than the second and destroy the third. Wendigee fucked around with this message at 02:59 on Dec 23, 2021 |

They explain it but the real answer is because they needed them to be alive for the sequel to exist. Also lmao Keanu is a terrible actor. But he's likeable and cool looking so it doesn't really matter at all. He says so many lines in an insanely weird way, with cadence that nobody would ever use.

Keanu can be an OK actor but if you want to see his, and everyone else's absolutely worst acting job, watch Johnny Mnemonic. Well, ICE-T did OK. Maybe the dolphin, too. Also they predicted what the internet would look like in 2021!

So the fake reality I am trapped in is definitely not "The Matrix". That always bugged me about this setting. It's fine for just the first movie. It doesn't matter. He knows Kung Fu. There's guns. But the more in-depth you go and the more you build on it, the more the original premise cracks under the strain. The Matrix would, 100%, be a net loss on raw energy generation. There's no way around that, no matter how much technobabble you throw in. There are so many other reasons why people might be trapped in a realistic simulation (either against their will, or maybe even originally with their full cooperation) and they picked one that makes no sense.

That means there's probably not also a free-flow of information.

I read all the critics reviews on rotten tomatoes. it's usually a good sign when none can't come up with a solid cutting dis. they're all confused how to criticize it. which means it's a "anomalous" success. no 2 criticisms are the same. I always look for a common thread and nobody knows the angle to attack it

It was weird that they brought back Joey Pants only to have him silently eat steak for literally five minutes where we could have had more motorcycles and helicopters. They should have cast a younger guy to be Cipher Jr.

Some sort of hard-coded Asimov-style "though they've figured out a way to kill individual humans in the name of self-preservation and the bigger picture, they have to ensure humanity's survival and even a certain level of comfort and happiness, even if they do not really want to" thing would've made much more sense.

I don't know which Wachowski was responsible for the helicopter ending from Sense8 but basically there are way too many got drat helicopters in this movie. Like there's an Agent Smith but the real Agent Smith is all the helicopters they shoved into Act 3
