Review of The Matrix Resurrections (2021) by Kevscorner — 23 Dec 2021

This movie is basically badly written fan-fiction. It's written by 2 nobodies who decided to jam-pack this film with cliche action movie tropes, including, matrix zombies(the swarm). It's written to entertain children and teenagers. I mean they took inspiration from games like Call of Duty... I'm not even kidding.

You can tell Wachowski didn't even want to be involved as the film breaks the fourth wall and states it at the beginning.

The new actors are terribly miscast and there's a huge disconnect whenever they are on screen. There's no fear or tension throughout the entire film. It's obvious they are trying to create a franchise like Marvel with their lowest common denominator humor, flashy action pieces, and no substance. And, just when you thought it couldn't get any worse, the ending is basically like a slap to the face to all those who loved the original films. I mean Neo has a force-field... LOL.

All I can say is I hope the old actors involved in the original got paid upfront. Any review that scores it above a 6 got paid to do so.
