The Matrix Resurrections was remarkably awful. These Hollywood soft-reboots are getting really miserable to watch. I didn't think The Matrix would fall into this category but unfortunately I was wrong. Once again, we have another fantastic property killed by a studio too greedy to leave well-enough alone. The Matrix: Rebooted is back and worse than ever. It barely builds off the past foundation and instead opts to tell the same story again but with far worse results. Neo once again needs to wake up. Neo once again has to train. Neo once again visits the same locals from the original film and the movie ends on an all too familiar note. One with a slight twist that adds nothing of value to the franchise. Yet, for all the similarities and constant callbacks, the movie manages to be different in all the worst ways. Gone are the intimidating agents. Gone is the fantastic Agent Smith or even a major threat at all. Gone is the origin Morpheus, played perfectly by Lawrence Fishburne. Zero attitude. The action is a shadow of its former self. Choreography is completely gone. The cool music of the trilogy is missing. The interesting, deep messaging is replaced by surface-level meta humor. The Matrix Resurrections should have stayed sleeping, as this 4th installment absolutely kills the franchise.

Neo: "So what are you saying, that I can dodge bullets?"
Morpheus: "No neo, I'm saying that when you watch your new movie, you won't want to."
This is gold looool
Goddamn, good comment lol. I likeattt a lot.
Best comment of all 🤣😂🤣
A movie is as good as its creative crew. Since they didn't hire the same martial art instructors, editors, cinematographers etc it could never be of the same quality... .
Gold 👌🏼
"Not like this, not like this" - Me throughout the entire movie.
Exactly! This movie shouldn’t of happened,
Why? It was epic.. I don't know what people don't like. Action, great acting, and excellent writing. What didn't you like?
@@genox3636 lol stop lying to yourself
The fan puns are better than the movie hahaha
That is a classic moment in the first movie. It had you feeling so disgusted at Cypher.
The Matrix 4 was made for people who like to watch TH-cam videos about bad movies.
This might be the only enjoyable thing about the movie.
There's always a silver lining lol
Yes
Why did you call me out like that?
not really as those usually only last 15 min tops. This was 130 min of nonsense
The downgrade to Agent Smith's character was criminal.
except it wasn't a downgrade at all.
@@LifeOnHoth one moment of fan service in the whole movie wasn't an upgrade
such a shame
You don't like him as a finance bro?
The guy who played him is a good actor if you've seen his other work, but you can't replace Hugo Weaving's iconic role. It is awkward to have anyone else play him.
I'm the biggest fan of the Matrix Trilogy and I was so hyped for Matrix 4. And all I can say now is: My heart is broken. I cannot believe what I saw. The more I think about the movie, the more I hate it.
Just imagine what’s in people’s minds that were giving this 5 stars. It’s truly perplexing how different we are
Same!
@@kenigma4303 it seriously is. I'm upset they took my money. I watched all 3 movies in a row to get ready for it...
@@jaysonp9426 haha I did the exact same. After rewatching them I realized that the sequels were not as bad as everyone said (although there were parts a could say more on) and resurrections is the most upset I have been with a sequel in a long, long time
@@jaysonp9426 dude, I was such a fanboy that I even dressed as Neo for haloween one year.
I walked out of this movie……And I was in a plane. Lol
Lol you win
😂
Okay, that was admittedly pretty funny….
😂
'Rim shot'
"Not like this..." is how I left the cinema.
Switch tried to warn us
Cypher directed this?.. that'd explain alot.
I loved the 1st and 2nd but the 3rd and this left me feeling like I got a kick on the nuts by a soccer player.
he says he knows kungfu but there is no kungfu in the movie😂
WHOLEHEARTEDLY AGREED‼️😩😩😩
Halfway through the movie my friend turned and said, “I never thought I’d see a Matrix where Neo is eating fruit with old ladies”. The film was one of the worst I’ve ever seen. Literally any fan could have come up with a better story and script.
What yu saying!!! It broke my heart how trash this movie was such a big fan of the Matrix I could’ve done better with the writing..
Hey hey they mocked Niobi later when they said she was more interested in growing fruit than freeing minds. So it's cool because they made fun of themselves
@@chrism3790 the whole entire movie they made fun of themselves. There was nothing serious anything in this movie like the originals took themselves very serious barely any humor.
Right? Neo only eat cookies with old ladies!
That's because the Wachovias aren't the real creators. They stole the original work.
I’m gonna be honest, the first 30 minutes or so, I was like “damn, people are too harsh on this movie”. I was honestly loving it.... but then the movie continued. Oh no, the movie continued. How wrong I was.
The first 40 minutes felt like a complete meta joke
LOL Exactly.
Same here. I really loved the first 30 min. After that... I had a hard time keeping interested
Yeah I found the first bit with Neo as the Game Dev losing his mind intriguing and kind of interesting and was getting on board... but then, aye, it just went off the rails... and was a disgrace of a film in the end
@@TheGavalanche same here
After watching the movie:
"Ignorance is bliss."
Plug me back into the original movie. I don't want to remember any of this movie. ANY. OF. IT.
after watching the movie: " I want to remember nothing....nothing"
I am honestly so ANGRY about how they spoiled the legacy of a great iconic trilogy.
Not worth the anger
4's a $$grab

@@jeremysiron9622 which troll farm do you graze on?
Dude, I completely agree with you. I went in with super low expectations and even they didn't get met. Matrix is my favorite movie of all times, and while I think the movies have gotten increasingly worse over time, I didn't expect Matrix 4 to be THIS lazy and poorly written. I literally apologized to my son for asking him to watch this trash with me. No need for a Matrix 5. Ever.
Same, I apologized to my mom.
Animatrix needs to pick up the story forgetting the 4th one.
It was a total joke! A parody, the early scenes set the tone for me and I knew where it was headed. It was like watching a tv or Netflix made movie and if it were on tv i dont think I'd have got even half way. Some of the worst writing in a movie that I've ever seen.
Not unless they add Donald Duck
I apologized to my friends
I liked Matrix 3 but always thought it could have been alot better...however after watching this, I now realize it could have been sooooo much worse, and to just be grateful. You basically verbalized every feeling I had before and after watching this movie. I was planning to take my dad to see this, but that's not happening. It's to late for me, but I won't allow this movie to hurt anyone else I care about.
I tried to give it a chance, but after that train scene when they said "It's a Swarm" and the "taken-over-by-agents" people started to act like crazed zombies I couldn't help but laugh and will have to finish when I'm drunk or something.....another great franchise killed by Hollywood.
Dont bother. It isn’t worth anyones time. Ending is terrible too.
See how they massacred my boy
Train to Busan did it better
as soon as i saw the trinity scene, in the beginning, i knew this movie was going to suck. everything about that scenes existence makes no sense. 1. the action looked worse than the original making a film almost 20 years ago look better. 2. the agents are now weaker and lack the fear they would instill from the original. 3. Morpheus is not morpheus, he's an agent/code. DUMB. 4.
Train go boom.
remember the fear we felt when morphius was being interrogated by agent smith? God, I was terrified and wishing with all my heart that neo and trinity would rescue him.
It's like the studio had like 7 concussions in quick succession and stood up like "AIGHT!!! WE READY TO GO" and they just plow through a brick wall injuring oneself even further
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
It felt like an episode of a low budget TV show
It was VERY low budget.
Described succinctly!
Yes well put. (Spoiler) in the end when both Neo and Trinity are flying around and beating up the analyst felt so corny and without any weight or proper tone. Like wtf am I watching? A bad marvel tv show spinoff?
Apparently wachowski might have fucked the film up on purpose. I'm hearing that the studio gave him an ultimatum, you make the film or we'll get someone else to make it.
@@simonrodgers2375 He was quite proud of it tho.
Yeah, what a fiasco. Walking home I was thinking to myself, "I can't even rate this movie on a scale of 1-10 because I would actually prefer to have not seen it."
I'm so glad that COVID curfew prevented me from going out and pay to see that crap
I wish I had opted the route of staying in innocent bliss. This ruined the franchise for me personally.
Nice
@@mookiemoo2601 Don't worry, Hollywood being incapable of coming up with something new, the Reboot if probably being written as we 'speak' and who knows, maybe they'll get it right next time.
Really good review. You mention just about everything that was wrong with this film. You forgot to mention that the Frenchmen actually says, "Franchise Spin Off". Also, not one single good guy dies...so much for the matrix and machines being a legitimate theat. No good machine or good human actually die.
I noticed this too. How could no good guys die? I was actually sad as a kid when mouse, Apoc, Switch, and dozer died.
I even said to my sister when we met the crew "well, they're all gonna die" but... uhhh... nope. Yay?
I guess the Fast and the Furious crew will be joining the matrix 5 crew for some more unbelievable epic action where no good guy ever gets hurt
My wife walked out of our home theater 30 minutes in. She’s said, “this is so frickin stupid, I’m going upstairs and going to do something else”
She probably would have done the same in a regular theater. Even say the same line LOL
She was right too. This movie was unbelievably awful. This was written by one of the same people that wrote the trilogy???? This was like the work of an amateur middle school film class.
Popcorn decoded
Popcorn decoded ooh heard Matrix 5 by the Wachowski Sister's is going to be better than Resurrection Lana plays Trinity..way to set it up ( No Larry s )
My wife did the exact same thing when I watched it, but she also disliked the originals.
I was always wondering why Lawerence Fishbourne and Hugo Weaving didn’t return… but after seeing the film it’s a good thing they didn’t.
Hugo Weaving had scheduling conflicts and I don't think they even ever hit up Lawrence Fishburne.
@@moballardful Hugo was probably being nice.
Man probably changed his number after reading the script 🤣
@@undudeme 🤣
@@moballardful I highly doubt it was due to schedule conflict him and Fishbourne probably looked at the script and saying fuck this shit. After all those 2 have the power to turn down roles if a movie is a dump
@@grantmcroberts4089 Fishburne said he was never even approached, his own words apparently.
Matrix fans now understand how us Jurassic Park fans feel… one all-time-great movie followed by a string of increasingly hollow films built around flashy thrills and nostalgia and not even getting those things right.
Dude, there are so many who are fans of both the originals. Think about them too!
I’m a fan of both, and terminator, it’s been a tough decade lmao

Is he really though I just see him as another generic annoying reviewtuber who THINKS he’s funny, but isn’t.
@@jacobs1834 ok
yeah but isnt that a little easy?
Honestly, there was also gaps In the storyline.
One of the biggest for me personally was toward the end when Neo and Trinity declare they are to create their own Matrix. Someone tell me how this works in the plotline? Are they going to magically become architects and change the coding of the Matrix against the ideology that of the original films that they needed to free people from the slavery of the Machines? Or create an entire new code for the Matrix that serves no purpose and literally doesn't add up no matter which way you look at it.
Seriously, I hope someone tells me I'm wrong because I hated this ending. Had me feeling like "Is that it?"
Yeah it all sucked but I guess they were gonna wake people up.
what i really hated is how the new architect could stop time and Neo was powerless against it, and couldnt do anything about it (that part is fine i guess) but then at the end he suddenly makes it, no problem, done, solved it... like, what the hell happened?
So true, it's all gone. Literally everything. Don Davis with Juno Reactor, Kung Fu, philosophy, superhero level agents, God-like Neo, cool scenes where Neo can see code in the Matrix and the real world, the good version of bullet time, mind bending fights... The 3rd act fight was freaking zombies? Never been bitch slapped by a movie this bad.
Not just zombies, but suicidal roof-jumping bomb zombies!!! 😂
@@mikeytheczechoslovak You actually gave a flying tug and saw right up till this point? Lmaooo!!
its like the breaking of the vase, if you expectations were not so high would you still of hated this resurrections
Love this review...its like the makers of this film took a dump on you while you slept
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Wow, most accurate review I've seen.
I fell asleep. And so did some of my friends. Watching the matrix!!!!!!!!!
A movie is as good as its creative crew. Since they didn't hire the same martial art instructors, editors, cinematographers etc it could never be of the same quality... .
I didnt feel rage. I felt... 'Well, its 2021, what else do you expect from mainstream media productions?'.
Woke garbage
We're so desensitized to it now lol
@@AP90x 2017? dude maybbe u should watch the movie NETWORK n then check its date of production.
What you said about letting artists do what they want, it worked wonders for heaven's gate. Hell of a masterpiece.
@@AP90x Be careful what you wish for. What you're saying worked so well for heaven's gate. Michael cimino got fu**ed, united artists died and critics negative reviewed the hell out of the movie. It was a box office bomb at it's time. Michael cimino had complete control and 30 million dollars. It worked wonders. It's hell of a masterpiece that's for sure.
But seriously i resepct the movie. It's great but not in the way you expect. I understand what he wanted to do, but he made it a really big movie. So yeah, can't say anything.
Hollywood did learn the lesson from that.
It's so nice after watching a disappointing crap fest like this, to watch someone vent for you, and say... yeah. Other people get how pissed off I am about this movie!
It should have been a home run. The concept was even pretty good but the writing and directing was terrible.
How was it disappointing? Neo and Trinity ended up overcoming the odds. The action was amazing and even when Neo falters, Trinity helped complete him.
It wasn't that bad, not as good as it could've been but still a fun movie
Amen!
@@genox3636 the action was amazing ? I watched an hour of it and i could have excused the exhausting writing if the action was good but uh... it was also boring.
Someone was SLEEPING...in the screening I went to. An hour into it I almost wanted to also. Usually when you see a movie that you don't like you can at least find certain good things about it ( a certain scene, action, music, whatever), I found NOTHING to like about it...I didn't really care what happened. Everything and everyone just seemed so pointless.This was just a matrix parady discount version to laugh at. This 4th one makes Revolutions look like gold.
EXACTLY! Even “bad movies” might have SOME good in it but this film has ZERO. Like HOW???
Yes. Someone was snoring in mine
Dude!! That was me when I was forced to watch episode 9 with friends. Sleeping made it so much easier to watch the movie
I definitely fell asleep watching this but luckily it was at home and free
I did 10 years for manslaughter and watching Matrix 4 was still the biggest mistake of my life.

Trinity went from: “Dodge this”
To: “byeeee”
I know right! How lame was that one liner
Although there were poor reviews for this movie by the time I saw it, my buddy and I sat down to watch it and were still pretty pumped. It wasn't long before we found ourselves laughing at most of the scenes and joking about how bad it was. It was so satirical. I couldn't take anything seriously. Also, seeing Smith in loafers without socks wearing ray bands hurt my soul. They did him so dirty. I understand the points and themes Lana Watchowski was trying to make in regards to the hypocrisy of Hollywood sequels and its making fun of nostalgia, but it just didnt work for me.
I think after the line “Neo has to make the most important decision of his life, and it’s not his decision to make” my head exploded, my movie heart stopped and I went to movie heaven only to come back as another sorry version of Morpheus. Between the tropes, the feminization of many of the male characters, the infernal super human strength of Bugs (who was the Matrix version of Rey from the Last Jedi, being able to do in the first few minutes what it took Neo almost an entire movie to learn) and the glorification of Trinity, I stopped this movie so many times, I’m glad I watched it via HBOMax because boy I would’ve thrown my popcorn in the theatre. Don’t get me wrong, I had no problem with Trinity gaining her powers but to fly at the most important time when Neo was literally stopping 50 cal rounds from helicopters and falling bot bombs with force fields I was like … bruh! It’s like Wachowski’s built a franchise of red cups stacked them beautifully then undid it just as quickly for the Guinness Book of Records. Ugh. I was disappointed!
RIGHT? Neo stops bullets and then can't fly...ok...that makes NO sense.
That's because the wachowskis didn't create the matrix. They most likely had a hand in everything after the first film but the first film was not their original idea.
Boy that must’ve been embarrassing to see this hyped up with a group of friends, I just kept my disappointment to myself
In the words of Smith himself:
“It is inevitable”
I was like Cypher: "I don't want to remember nothing. Nothing."
Go Woke, Go Broke
I would have liked the story to dive into "the powers of the one extend beyond this world" but hey, this is an art piece, made by the free will of artists and I have to take it as it's given.
It's a good movie. It's just that the artist decided it needed to be something different than what I thought I expected. I'm not disappointed tho. I'm grateful good movies can still be made.
The machines won.
@@rempseaheinamies9414 They had already won before the 1st movie. They didn't eradicate humanity because they turned out to be more human than us. Using us as batteries? Suuuuure. ^_^
Matrix 4 was worse than Space Jam 2.
Now that’s saying a lot!
Come on, Lebron? LOL
I watched both and I can confirm that
🤐🤐🤐
For real?
You mirrored my thoughts on the film pretty on the nose. There were some interesting concepts brought up that could have been a good basis for the fourth film, like the machines at war with each other and working with humans. How much cooler would it be to see that process and then have the machines find Neo and Trinity are alive and Naobi sends Bugs in to get them out or goes in herself. What happens when all the pods open at once and the machines lose their power source? WB hit me up and I'll write you a better script. So much wasted potential here.
Hell, you could have kept Neo and Trinity dead but loaded into the Matrix and had them get those nanite bodies for the first time. Super cool. This script needed several more rounds of revision to get at the heart of some of these ideas. How about getting to know Trinity's fake family so her choice means something at the end? You know, put some emotion into it? -__-
did everyone forget that the whole reason the machines built the matrix was to have a source of energy from the humans. How tf are these new machines on the human's side getting energy?
@@j.a.hernandez9742 From the bio sky they created? The machines originally got their energy from the sun. They created a bio sky in IO and that is how they are growing fruit and shit, granted it takes altering the fruit to accomplish it. But its an easy assumption that the same bio sky is used to power the machines that live with the humans. Which is plenty believable cause it doesn't seem like its a MASSIVE amount that actually live in IO.
@@j.a.hernandez9742 that's easy though. Human cities are rather deep, they can use geothermal energy. Human cities need power too and a lot of it. Sharing some of it with machines would be no trouble at all.
Which brings the question why the machines couldn't just use the same power source. Or nuclear. Or burned all the food they would otherwise give humans. Do rivers and oceans still exist ? Use those. Wind ? Or they could have even used high altitude solar stations - the sun still shines and the machines can fly. Or build a fricking high tower. Anything.
I was pretty inebriated while watching this film. I was laughing, uncontrollably, when I saw Jada Pinkett Smith with that ridiculous old age make-up on. The movie was extremely convoluted and a big disappointment. The first Matrix was absolutely amazing but this one, imho, is the worst one out of the 4.
As I get older...I've realized that movies look better but the writing gets worse and worse.
But I would argue this movie looked worse, too.
@@thedancingveganatheist6310 totally agree. The first movie looks WAY better.
This movie looked like shit
'Trinity help'...this script. Oh man this video is already quality haha
😂
Lmao
Lmfao
The ultimate "hero shot" of Trinity realizing she could fly with a meek Neo dangling by her hand & with swelling heroic music! That was so ludicrously shot. You could tell the wire work on Trinity's back! It looked like they were dangling. The fight scenes were boring & amateurish. The running, I mean actual running, of the characters was like a jog; no where near how Trinity ran for her life at the start of Matrix-1. All the agents were like stormtroopers with their guns not hitting a simple target. The nostalgic scenes screamed of pandering nonsensical garbage after a point. The self-references got really obnoxious. The cinematography, transitions were so sub par. There was no script. What was the central conflict? Why is Neo back? Why should we care about getting Trin back? How did Tiffany/Trinity let go of her kids so easily. Shame on Tiff! LOL. The world & machines are at peace. So why the heck does the plot exists? Its a money grab.
This looked like a made for tv garbage by failed film college students who wanted to make a Matrix remake & were funded by their rich doting uncle. Lana Wachowski should stay away from writing & directing. She has effectively shamed the name of Larry Wachowski.
Edit 2: The fight sounds! The ahhs & oohs. Sounds people make while punching or getting punched. They were again so so bad. Sounded like they were just overlayed by a lazy editor. Goshdarnit! I hate this movie 😢😭
Edit: I should explain my comment on mocking Tiffany/Trinity for leaving her kids behind so easily. Of course, I know she realized they were not real & hence decided to leave them all for Neo. That is not my point. It is that, as audience, it was portrayed so haphazardly. Think about it. She is with her kids, her own kids, for like 14 something years. She might hate her husband but she loved her kids. Now, this Neo guy shows up & says the world is not real. Tiff goes back & plays the Matrix game (LOL). Bang! She then decides the world is not real, leaves her family & goes with Neo to be led to the "real world". This would otherwise be called schizophrenia
! (like Mal from Inception) It comes across as crazy.
Weren't her emotions as a Mother real! They could have shown her struggling with the decision, shown how difficult it was for her to leave the kids even after knowing they weren't real & how she finally decided to let go. But it was horribly depicted. In the first movie, Neo was a loner & had no one. It was fairly easy for him to drink Morpheus' kool aid about the Matrix world but even then Neo struggled a lot before giving in. For Gods sake, even the matrix recycling programs who Neo met at the train station mobil ave in revolutions (Rama kandra & Kamala) had a hard time letting go of their purposeless program-daughter Sati. Wouldn't Tiffany? To gloss over that shows how bad the director is. Truly heartbreaking that she was one of the "he"s that created the visually unparalleled & philosophically stimulating Matrix-1 (also 2)
If that's what Lana comes up with for Matrix 4 i think it might be time to retire.
No movie has ever screamed money grab as much as this movie! It was shockingly bad and unbelievably uneventful
I WONDERED WHAT WAS GOING ON THERE! I didn't realize it was just how lazy the movie was made!
Well, to be perfectly honest. And dont get me wrong, I AGREE 100% with you. But her "kids" were not "real". They were... Whatever the hell they call the "new agents" (swarm?). And she "realized" because... She felt neo in the matrix? Maybe? Point being, her kids where not kids.
F the haters! The Matrix was always niche and not for everyone. Seen and heard ALL your points and STLL love the franchise and believe Resurrections is genius and the best Matrix film yet!!!
I'm still stunned that, for a movie that was 18 years in the making, they wouldn't just wait until they could get both Wachowskis, Hugo Weaving, and Laurence Fishburne. How can a sequel that comes 18 years later feel so rushed and thrown together?
I totally forgot Christine Ricci was in this for a second. Either she's there for a sequel, or they cut out all her other scenes. So dumb and jarring.
I'm really glad I watched this at home, because it kept me from having the visceral hatred that people who saw it in the theaters had. I didn't like it (for literally every reason mentioned in this video), but enjoyed it for the most part. But I think that's because I watched it on my couch on my Christmas vacation.
In the middle of it, my brother turned to me and went "lets play a co-op game instead" and it made me so happy
To me, what's harder to believe than Matrix 4 turning out to be a dumpster fire...is someone having seen Matrix 2 & 3 and not thinking that Matrix 4 was going to be a dumpster fire.
I'm starting to believe the first Matrix movie was great by accident.
Even the sequels had great qualities in philosophy and industry defining action scenes. But not in this movie
matrix 2 was alright 3 was awful
I don't know why everybody hates matrix 3. Sure, it's 'worse' but it wasn't bad by no means
@@twentytwoedits2442 yes especially compared to the not at all matrix 4
"I went back home and played the matrix" - Tiff-Trinity 😭
😂
That line was so cringey. As if an older woman like her would even know how to play a video game. I mean, did she play all three? Also, doesn't TH-cam or some other social media platform obviously exist in the Matrix? Why play older games when you can watch them played for you, especially if you're not a gamer.
i did the same thing too.
I felt like Agent Smith from The Matrix Revolutions when I ended watching The Matrix Resurrections:
*"Why, Mrs. Wachowski? Why, why, why? Why do you do it?"*
😂😂
Same comment was on Full fat videos and mark kermode's review.
Plagiarism or copying from yourself?
A Mr. with mutilated genitalia. Not a Mrs.
Because she chose to.
Because the WB forced her hand. They were going to do it with or without her. Funny how they said they wouldn't do a 4th. Then rumors and articles came out of a reboot with Michael B Jordan playing a young Morpheus but then a few months later Lily is signed on... Makes you wonder.
I went to see this movie, and a dude that was a couple seats down from me LITERALLY fell asleep during the movie 🤣. I was SO disappointed with this movie
I fell asleep myself! Properly nodded off for about 10 minutes, woke up and had no clue what was going on in the movie by that point. Not that I cared. 😂
The thing I hate about people that like this movie is that they all say that those of us who don’t like it just aren’t thinking deep enough. No, we just truly wanted to see the things that made us fall in love with the original, it’s just that simple and they completely removed all of it.

When I heard bugs, computer bug is the only thing I thought of
You know damn well the reason is because Bugs Bunny is a warner bros character... it's both computer bugs and bugs bunny.
Dude, you are super talented! I got more entertainment out of this review, than that 2.5 hour snoozefest...thank you!
i fell asleep twice during this shit show
Fun fact the cover song of the band who did the rage song (brass against), their lead singer pissed on a dude live on stage 😂
Once I knew Laurence Fishburne was not returning as Morpheus, I knew the movie wouldn't be so good
They made Neo look like a joke from the first 3 movies as well as meaningless, im so confused as to why this was even made, then Trinity flys smh
I kinda agree. He didnt have much dialogue it seemed. There was alot of bullet stopping not much hand to hand combat,which may have been intentional. He seemed kind of bumbling,this may also have been on purpose. With all that said. I loved the idea of the movie,and I rooted for it. I'm such a fan of the trilogy which in turn makes me a fan of this 4th installment,even though it could have been better in some ways, but was good in alot if ways. Love the use of the white rabbit song.
@@ladydiaspora807 I think all these YT reviewers are just copying each other. The idea of this movie was really good. And the Matrix started with Trinity, only right for it to end with her too.
@@ladydiaspora807 do you know why you have two likes under your comment? Because you two are the only shills here and you liked your comments. The movie was a parody of the originals.
@@1titans Yeah, I think all these girl power people are copying each other, too.
They made Trinity look like Peter Pan.
Santa Claus has blessed us with 20-minute rant video from adam🙏,in all honestly i thought it was disappointingly below average sci-fi action flick.
The entire part with them rescuing Trinity. What the actual FUCK was going on I was so lost why did Bugs have to get plugged in none of it made sense it was just a thing that happened that was suppose to raise stakes but never felt like it did. GOD it was bad.
Yeh they explained it but I couldn't remember why
It was explained. But as your comments reflect: you simply do not understand.
The time they take to disconnect Trinity and for Trinity to wake up to make a decision, must not be detected by the machine. Plugging Bug, a female substitute is to buy time.
@@PiccadillyPoohBear lmao who even gives a flying tug. Bury this film under 100ft of cast lead and concrete, it’s that toxic.
@@mikeytheczechoslovak Welp, apparently you did GaF! Lmaooo…
I don't get the hate. Ive been a massive fan of the franchise for 20 years and I didn't have a problem with this film. After first viewing, thought it's "okay", after second viewing appreciated more ideas and understood more context. I think people are massively blinded by their own expectations. Of course it was going to be different. I happen to think they introduced many interesting ideas, had powerful scenes and the actors did spectacularly well. Oh well
I particularly like how it makes fun of all the garbage reboots coming from Hollywood. I can agree that there are problems with the film, but I definitely don't think it deserves this much hate.
The scene with the Merovingian was the embodiment of what happened to this franchise
Didn't Bugs say "What's up, Doc?" to the person that was working on Neo when he opened his eyes after being transported out... again?? (I don't really wanna go through it again just to find this part---but I know I will anyway. smh.)
EDIT: She did... at 54 minutes in. **facepalm**
Bugs had a booty tho
@@harbinger8035 I cannot deny this
She did , was super cringe 🤮
I would have paid triple the money to see Hugo Weaving and Keanu Reeves as Work Colleagues in a sitcom where Smith continually annoys Neo by calling him Mr. Anderson Again and again.
Or, at least they should have had Hugo Weaving come back. That would have made the scenes at least bearable.
Thanks for taking the hit for the rest of us Adam. Watching your rant is cleary a better way to spend my time than watching this disgrace of a movie.
There is no way I'll be spending my money and my time with trash like this. When I need my Matrix fix I'll just watch the original trilogy again.
@CoherentRamblings Yeah, I guess the problem is that the immersion / realism of these great films/shows is sort of ruined when later films cheapen it and make you see through it. Now you see them for what they are: actors saying made up lines in a made up environment. All the magic is gone.
At the same time, that's what they've always been. Matrix 1, Empire Strikes Back, GoT 1-4, etc.... should be still marveled at because of how they were SO good that they made us get completely immersed into their story. They created magic out of nothing. This peak of filmmaking is extremely hard, and if you recognize that, you can accept that it is almost impossible to maintain that consistency.
@CoherentRamblings I completely understand what you are saying. Luckily for me I didn't watch Matrix 4, I stayed well away from the crap they call Star Trek these days and pretty much ignored the existence of stuff like Ghostbusters 2016, Terminator Salvation and all other movies/shows of their kind... I saw the signs from a distance and I know if I see them they will ruin the rest for me as well so I refuse to spend my money and my time on them. I may watch these rants/reviews from time to time just to see how much they messed it up but I refuse to let them sully the movies and franchises I like. And no, I will never give any of these movies and shows "a chance", and neither should you or anyone else. Even if we hate it and never buy the merchandizing they still see box office money and any sort of high ratings on streaming or tv as a big victory and will always keep shoving crap like this down our throats.
The best thing to do, no, the ONLY thing to do is ignore it completely, wait for reviewers like Adam here to give us a real unbiased honest opinion on the movies/shows, don't give in to any sort of fake hype, listen to the word-of-mouth of the idiots that went to see it first to see if they have ruined it or not and only then maybe(and that is a big MAYBE) give them some money if they did indeed treated the fans and franchise with respect. Remember that the guys on top want money, they don't care about the "message", if these movies start to fail miserably and continue to fail and lose them money eventually they will be sick of these weirdos losing them money and will have no other choice but to stop giving them money to ruin our favourite franchises.
They should have had the "real world" be another level to the matrix and they were never actually free.. only to create more energy for something way beyond anything we have seen
I had the same idea.
@@pedrovalencia1351 cool.. I posted it in some forum after the 2nd movie and I think the idea almost went viral.. but yeah I'm sure many of us thought of it too
That just sounds like slavery with extra steps.
@@ChainedFei Bingo* but then they could do a whole story about Neo activating his powers in the so-called real world and it would have been fire, instead of repeating the same story
@@WelcomeToTheGoldenPage I was actually making a rick and morty reference, since it's literally the plot of an episode.
This review is 10 times more entertaining than the film. Thankyou it’s lifted the grimace from my face after struggling through this steaming turd of a movie last night.
The best thing about this movie is that it provided us with content like this, the film was dogshit but these YT reviews / reaction videos are golden.
Hello...
The Jumanji scene with zoolander derelicite clad ninjas who work for the Merovingian was awful.
Dude your subs are jumping up! Congrats, 100k at least by 2022
It's no longer The One, its...The Two!
It's the meh.
@Shawn Cook Something else that is not explained at all lol
The best part of watching Matrix 4 was sitting back and having a very large cackle at your sarcastic review of the film. Bravo. 👏 I haven't laughed this hard for a long time. You have a new sub. 👍😎
Not in a million years did I think that halfway through a new matrix I'd be wanting to turn it off and or just could not wait for it to end, but I watched it to the end just to see how much worse it could get and it did. And what's the deal was Carrie anne Moss and Keanu Reeves talking about how great it is and how proud they are to be back yeah big paycheck that's why. Potentially one of the worst movies I've ever seen in my life.
the way they handled Smith is what bothered me the most.
I haven’t even seen it (and probably never will), but I was entirely off this train when I found out Smith was back but Weaving wasn’t.
Hard pass.
Johnathon could play Smith, because there's a few scenes where he's literally just like Hugo
The problem is for some reason Johnathan Groff decided to do his own thing and went out of his way to not copy Hugo
The Matrix Trilogy changed the world of cinema, it is a masterpiece. The Matrix Resurrections changed nothing... not.. one... thing....! Nothing revolutionary, nothing special, nothing mind bending, nothing cool looking, nothing bad ass, nothing at all. Just plain stupid low budget "fan made video". The lack of green color palet in Matrix scenes is just criminal, it's like soul of the matrix got deleted, purged. I dont like it. For me The Matrix ended at Revolutions in 2003. And somehow CGI looks way worse than in trilogy 18 years ago. How can you f*ck up movie like this? First Star Wars, Jurassic Park, Terminator and now The Matrix... all went to shit. Its a tragedy.
Matrix Resurrections did something. It ruined The One/Neo as many expected it to, and buried the franchise hopefully for good.
Because it was a movie that should never be made and can tell it was just made for money
A movie though is as good as its creative crew. Since they didn't hire the same martial art instructors, editors, cinematographers etc it could never be of the same quality... .
Daddy Marvel needs to get involved with these franchises to save them from themselves.
@@GR-ir2bu hell no
After watching, my BF and I were brainstorming ideas that would have been fun. In a total of one minute he said one of Trinity’s kids could have been a bad agent at the end. Even that idea would have been original. Nothing held on for me during this film. Just forgettable.
That was one of the most terrible things for me. How could the virtual trinity just let go of her kids? There was no hesitation, no thought. Horrible movie.
@@AlphaCentauri24 because her kids weren't real
@@AlphaCentauri24 Nah the movie wasnt bad at all. Trinity woke up once again, she is goddess level at that point she knows those kids werent real. Even at the end she attacks neil patrick harris because he used kids to control her. You guys are dense lol
@@aegisreflector1239 Nice to see some people understand this film. 😀
@@strainofthought9142 Notice how low i.q people are struggling really hard to get the movie rn, thus theyre hating it. It wasnt even that complicated.
The thing I hated the most, was that I convinced myself that there was no way that they could screw this up, maybe just a little bit.
It's a fucking Matrix movie!! There's just no way they'll fuck this up!!
But lo and behold..
10 minutes into the movie and I felt like I was gnawing and crawling out of the rabbit hole completely covered with feces.
How many times can I fool myself and be this stupid, I should have known this was going to happen.. "#$"#%"!! FUCK!
Cypher after seeing M4: I don't wanna remember nothing. NOTHING, you understand?
You saved me money with your reviews stopping me from going, so I loved this movie
Its fine if people dont like it. But there are those who did enjoy it. Sure the movie has some shortcomings, but its aovie you watch several times. I thought its better than the sequels, not as good as the original
You’re lucky. I wish I could un-see it.
You know the worst part about it was just how much of the movie felt like a mean-spirited mockery of the original movies. They even come out and said that it was a bad idea, but Warner was going to do it whether they were involved or not.
I agree with you about the Merovingian being a summary of the tone of the movie, going from a sophisticated individual to a crazy hobo, going full boomer about new technology and Facebook, interspersed with "peepee" and "poopoo" to make the rant even less coherent.
The new Morpheus was basically there to mock Laurence Fishburne's performance, and that's a real shame because the actor had a spark of charisma, but it was wasted by constantly reminding us he's no Laurence Fishburne.
Smith was wrong. Too much swagger, and not enough of the desire for purpose and to be complete that drove him to absorb every resident of the Matrix.
The more I think about the Bugs thing, the more it annoys me. Her name is a software term, but they just had to let us in on the fact that they named her after Bugs Bunny. God damn it.
I guess the best way to put it is that the original film was about hackers, but this one was written by hacks.
Also thank you. They really did waste Christina Ricci. The only moment I smiled in the whole god damn movie was when she showed up, and then she was gone.
A bad parody is exactly what I said. They took everything about the originals and made them a joke.
"The original film was about hackers, but this one was written by hacks." this should be printed on the movie's poster
Is it parody or just so clumsy it looks like parody ?
They could have played with humans against humans in the matrix. Remember how sypher felt betrayed? The fall of zion could have been the reason why humans side with the machines. It would have been cool fighting humans and agents on the same side.
Yeah like a civil war between both races. Zion Humans and synths vs Matrix loving humans and machices.
Keep going, seems good so far 😀
They did that all on Matrix Online.
In fact, this movie even has Matrix Online continuity!
I miss that game...
The Director really dropped the balls on this one. Pun intended
The whole movie is basically just "member? You member".
This movie broke me on the Wachowskis, I saw Jupiter Ascending day one, I went to Speed Racer in IMAX! I watched all three Matrixes front row because it was packed on opening night.
My mom actually went to Reloaded with me and hated it and we argued the whole way home about filmwriting and plot when i was 16, because as an impressionable teen I walked away with a head full of theories and my mom just thought "damn that sucked."
This movie has made me question if the Wachowskis even were the creative directors behind The Matrix or if they were directors for hire fixing a script written for Will Smith. I'm thinking that might be the case because this film showed that they didn't even understand some concepts from the first film like Deja Vu.
Lana also failed to deliver a coherent immersive film, the world-building in this film was the weakest I've seen yet from Lana. For example, the ship is landing at the dock, they show one snippet of the bay and the guards waiting for them. It directly cuts from that transition shot to another transition shot of them walking into Naobi's office. George Lucas knew this in 1977, if you have a model ship landing on a miniature set, if you animate the door opening and then film practically the actors walking out you immediately marry the CG and Practical shots and immerse the audience. Now watch Matrix 4 you'll notice it's missing from the entire film even in basic shots they could establish. I thought at first this was intentional and going to be some artistic way of portraying being inside the matrix, disconnected from the setting. but no. It was the whole film.
There were so many shot transitions that didn't make sense or were downright terrible. The Matrix editing was on another level.
Its insinuated that lana was forced to make this movie, or they wouldve made it without her. Makes me wonder if she just lost interest
@@AlphaCentauri24 First film was great, they shot that like a classic action movie.
@@kiiiirbzzz There was a lot of meta bullshit in the beginning we could try and take as excuses in hindsight but i don't buy it.
The Wachowskis peaked at Matrix 3 for me. Nothing they have done since has moved me.
It was laughably bad... i couldn't believe what i was seeing.. it was like a low budget superhero tv show that airs on CW.. Niobi looked like she was wearing a mask bought at a 99 cents store. power ranger movies had better looking fight scenes.. it was soooo bad...
Bravo! Epic Rant! (and I agree 200% with everything you said)
There’s no such thing as 200% of something.
I almost walked out a few times during this movie but I ended up staying because I was the only one in the theatre...which is an introverts dream lol. I felt the director was giving everyone the finger. From the studio to the fans she was like 'FU'.
Exactly the same. I'm pissed they took our money. If you're going to give WB the middle finger that's one thing... but they're giving us the middle finger too
I found myself laughing throughout this video, all your points are spot on too. I felt gutted when I left the theatre and kept questioning why it was made. Such a shame
I actually left the theatre before the end... an EPIC failure!!! like a giant meme...
You missed the end? You missed the worst part. Good for you
Honestly, I wanted to walk out within the first 20 minutes. I just had this impending feeling of disappointment. It felt bad, Like real bad watching the first act. I was almost in shock at what I was watching and how it was unfolding. I hated it.
If you paid,jokes on you.If I pay for a movie I'm staying until the last credit.
@@encryptor6710 Yeah... great description mate... it was truly terrible... like if they were showing the middle finger to all the fans.
@@lochofmceo I would actually pay more than the price of the ticket just to get out of the theater.... terrible movie! like if they were showing the middle finger to all of the fans
Completely agree. This was a dumpster fire of epic proportions.
Neo was way too meek, tired, and confused looking. I didn’t mind Trinity being more angst and strong. Just Neo was too weak
Its ok for Neo to be meek, confused etc. i thought they were building him up to snap out of it and start kicking ass but the problem is it never happened. Would hv improved the movie by miles even if it only lasted 5 minutes of Neo’s triumphant return
@@austinsavage yeah I thought at some point he’d become confident again, or gain some new ground breaking abilities. But nothing happened. He didn’t gain anything. Or do anything interesting. He just looked confused the whole time. He looked more confused than at the end of Matrix one.
Which begs the question: if Neo was so weak, confused, constantly monitored and questioned by the Analyst and all of his minions, just why or how did he program Morpheus or make a Modal? It doesn’t make any sense at all. The logic doesn’t flow.
@@christpunchers he spent the last 60 years being physically and mentally tortured. He tried to commit suicide for Gods sake! Of course he's weak. The ONLY thing keeping him going is the thoughts of Trinity. He agrees to be killed if she doesn't decide to wake up.
@@strainofthought9142 but he comes off as too weak, for someone who once could fly in the matrix, and use telekinesis to shut down sentinels in the real world, his meekness and weaknesses were too much to bare. Also Trinity is as old as Neo, how come she can suddenly kick butt and have all those powers she never had when she was younger? It makes no sense.
@@christpunchers As to your first point, see previous comment along with the fact that he has been on mind altering virtual drugs for decades, Trinity was not.(withdrawal is a bitch)
2nd point: she doesn't display any powers until after the helicopter explosion. when she wakes up on the roof, her mind also wakes up. as she's looking at the skyline. She sees the code (just as Neo did in the 1st film after Trinity brings him back with a kiss)
At this point her powers are realized.
(Remember that Neos code was imprinted on her when he restarted her heart).
A side note: Neo was not the only one who had powers (all the kids in the oracle's apartment did too) as well as all the freed minds (Trinity, Morpheus, etc. Could all manipulate the matrix) albeit not to the extent that Neo could.
In the final scene it's revealed that Neo has all his powers back. It seems most people are just upset that Trinity could fly first (which has now been explained)
My expectations were low enough that I actually enjoyed it more than Matrix Revolutions
I'm just DONE with the movie industry. T.b.h....if Lionsgate picked this up, had a SERIOUS team of writers come together who knew how to create a compelling and worthwhile story, grabbed a legitimate director, the movie would have turned out phenomenal.
The more time goes by, the more I wish I took the blue pill and didn’t see how far Lana Wachowski took the rabbit hole. I would rather have not followed it to a sewer.
Lol. True.
I totally agree with everything you said, add the agents being replaced by fast zombies and the pinnacle being the RIDICULOUS scene where Trinity holds Neo flying standing completely STILL for what seemed like an eternity, I swear there could have been wires visible and it wouldn't have looked any worse, this scene was so bad I don't understand how anyone could have said, "that's the one, we're keeping it for the final cut !"
this, 100% this
That end scene where Trinity flew off with a "BAYEEEE" was... we all cracked up in the theater, terrible.
WELL SAID, SIR!!!! SUBSCRIBED!!!
Your entire rant is what the movie was about. They were ranting against WB and marketing that they just wanted to series to end, but WB wouldn’t let it go, and rather than having someone else ruin the movie, they made a movie about how creativity is dead and new movies are just marketing dropping nostalgia bombs by remaking old ideas. Your rant was what they were getting across.
Original writers/directors (The Wachowski BROTHERS) go "I am woman, hear me roar" in their personal lives and that's exactly what we get in the new movie. I just love how Neo, who has all his prior experience as "The One" to lean on, takes the ENTIRE MOVIE training and trying to relearn his abilities from the original trilogy, and then out of her ass Trinity is able to fly and "save the day" even though she only found out moments before that she was in The Matrix, has no prior experience tapping into the admin code, and undergoes no training to regain her former "self." She just does... because "I am woman, hear me roar"
😂
This movie was tragic, watching the slow murder of this franchise in real time sometimes makes we wonder if this was all just a sick, elaborate gag by the Wachowski sisters.
This film was truly awful.
The film was utter dog shit. And that’s being generous. Your review is 100% spot on.
What was the number one thing you didnt like about it. Iv watched all the movies, the animatrix the games. It wasnt even bad at all. I could easily follow the plot.
@@aegisreflector1239 well for a start the new agent Smith and morpheous are fucking dogshit. Patrick Harris one of the likeable actors around playing a fucking villain absolute bad casting.

@@grantmcroberts4089 NPH as a bad guy was surprisingly awesome are you kidding? Bugs, the new a.i humanoids, the robot helpers, all the new tech, the way people are infected in the matrix now and threw themselves out the window kamakazi style, breaking the fourth wall, and being self aware to what the casual normies would like and hate, the ending with Trinity attacking the new architect, the fight scene in the train etc were all well done and entertaining. Yes the movie isnt perfect(which movie is?) but to say its horrible? F no the movie still has alot of depth to it and layers to peel. The vicarious hate bots sweeaar this movie shot jfk and broke up the beatles. Its weird how its almost predicted people would react this way in the movie. The naysayers said the same things about Matrix 2 and 3 when they came out, they hated them, they couldnt understand them. Now theyre considered Matrix classics. I enjoyed the movie overall despite its flaws, and would like to see a sequel. But of course we will never get anything new Matrix now thanks to peoples hive mind smear campaign.
I really do get the vibe that Lana intentionally s*** on her own franchise because Warner Bros forced an unnecessary sequel. Essentially, she pulled a Gremlins 2.
This is correct...I said this before it was the same with james Cameron on dark fate...he shat on it to prevent anyone else from touching it again considering how all the movies after t2 went
