I think you missed the real point of that first 30 minutes. It was literally the creator admitting they didn't want to make this movie, admitting they were more effected by it then they told people, then it was a sort of apology for what they where about to do. Then they killed the franchise, the only way to stop WB from ruining there work was to kill it themselves in a way they liked instead of watching the rotten corpse keep walking for another 5 movies like every corporation is doing these days. The story was over, leave it in the grave.

The matrix 4 was entirely satire. The entire movie was only filmed to waste the money or Warner bros and make fun of them.

"MEH" is the perfect word for this movie, it sums up the whole movie completely. Another movie that just didn't need to be made, or at least not the way it was.

We want 90s level movies back. Period that. :/

I miss Morpheus, he was one of a kind!

13:05 "Some ideas from the movie have been pilfered" Said without missing a beat. OneTake you are really good at condensing and simplifying a movie, and bringing out it's core. Thank you for this.

"Matrix Explained" is a great KZfaq channel for anyone who's interested in learning more about the movies. There are at least a hundred videos over there including entire minute by minute analyze of every movie in the trilogy.

What I took from the last Matrix was that; It was one last cash grab for everyone, but Ms. Wachowski wrote a very satirical storyline about how it was all a Hollywood cash grab & that if they didn't do it, then Warner Bros. would get someone else to direct/make it... It's a VERY cynical storyline, which totally *_sells out_* the "good faith" story telling of the first three movies! And perhaps that was intentional, right? Maybe they're "sick" of it and wanted to line their pockets and destroy what they made, never to be revisited...

When that kid said "milf" I was like oh no this is already over. Too many strikes WB..what were you thinking?

I wanted to comment that I think the angle going for the motivation to take Trinity out was as follows: - The Architect was the one who brokered and kept the deal with Neo back in the end of Revolution. In which it still was the less efficient old matrix which didn't have as strong a grasp on humans as the new one did. Hence the energy shortage and subsequential civil war. - When The Analyst took over, he developed a new matrix which had significantly stronger holds on people and led to more efficient energy generation. Hence why he had leverage over the sentinels when it came to preventing the matrix from resetting. - The concern with The Analyst is that basically humans outside of the matrix lost their past growth of the old version, meaning that while they were in peace, their leverage to keep the peace was weakening overtime. So eventually the worry was that IO would eventually repeat into another Zion once the machine city regained its energy supply and wanted to reclaim all humans into the matrix. Plus with Neo and Trinity subdued, the anomaly wouldn't be a threat. - So once the realization set in about being able to rescue Trinity and gain access to modifying the matrix again, they could change it once more so humans inside the matrix would become a lot more open to leaving the matrix, which would decrease the sentinel's reliance on the matrix for energy, and eventually work towards cooperation to help the world together in a permanent peace.

The first matrix film cannot be topped I keep hearing mixed reviews about this most recent one

Huh. Found this channel earlier today, and just finished the matrix recap. I guess I'm watching this one now

I couldn't go past 10 minutes of the movie. Thanks for the review and recap. Had saved the video in my watch later list only to realize it was blocked/removed. Thankfully it's back on.

This is definitely one of those "why did I waste my time watching this" films. I wish I was in on the joke before I saw it

This was a great movie to the people that actually red pilled in our current times today, people that’s blue pilled hate this movie because it’s talking about them.

theres just something about this installment that feels off brand and off beat. it feels like an hours long teaser for a possible next movie that left me wanting more.

25:00 I literally only remember one character’s name and it’s because the only reason she has this name is to make her say “What’s up, Doc?”. You don’t even need to guess which character says that.

Meh-Taverse is a very fitting term because it seems like all new sequels nowadays suck.

I think one of the best lines about choice came from “Little Fires Everywhere” Reese mom says something like, “I made good choices” Kerry mom replies, “You didn’t make good choices; you had good choices” I love that line bc too often we blame others for their bad marriage, job, life in general, or whatever for “making bad choices” OR “not making the good (and/or right) choice” And for some people and/or sometimes, there really isn’t a “good” or “right” choice. Sometimes there is only choosing bad instead of worse or the lesser of two evils. Choice definitely played a part in the first 3 movies so I’m wondering if that aspect will return.... we shall see.

Great analysis. Figured you might have this response. You were actually far more forgiving than I was; I just couldn't wait for it to end.

Hey OneTake! Big fan of your videos!!! This is a request u probably will not see but can u do Every Live Action Harry Potter Film Next?? Pls?? Like the one u did for Spider-Man but Harry Potter.. I know it would be long but it will be worth it!!! Anyway Happy New Year!!

Literally of you listen to Lana saying that the studio wanted repeat story, so the script was written as a frustrated hodge podge. There are some good philosophical points in Resurrections though. I also happened to like all of them. You get a back story on this amazing free city, but you never get to see the city. I liked getting to see what they were fighting in the 1st one for. If you take them all as different stories, they're actually pretty good lol

I enjoyed this video more than I could the Mata Resurrections. Thank you :)

i enjoyed both your matrix recap videos

OMFG! I finally understand the link to the other ones! I can understand their frustration with all the interpretations but they probably even more frustrated to see all the screaming still did help!

Love the video, kinda dig the idea when I think about Keanu character in cyberpunk as, an stick with me just another jhon named roll; like a lot not all, but a lot of his movies. Being in a game. Jhon Keanu, ehhh maybe its just me. But I feel the new game had a play idea into the new film in making it throw you off to the "7th" render to the matrics but with the "6th" ONE still alive. Seems to change his face as he sees an all others do and make his real memories of the first 3 moves seem to be more a game idea then such of a dream. Or totally unreal because he still is the ONE. So insight I feel that was a very clever way to worp a 4th movie to be so much different but have what we like to call deja vu aka in the matrixs similar differences,

Great analysis. Don't have to see the movie now. 😂

the problem is...DO we know the themes? maybe it bears repeating because we don't do anything with the knowledge. we're still stuck on arguing what the meaning is, all the while sticking to the status quo of inaction

Love your movies, Keanu, from your fan in Thailand.

Can you talk About Kaitou Joker?

You gotta wonder if the whole story of The Matrix wasn't just a drug trip from taking the red pill. Moral of the story is don't take random drugs from weird strangers.

Thanks a lot for sparing me watching this movie. It clearly DOES NOT answer my questions about the end of the trilogy (machines where energy now?)

Don’t forget the pyramid building always in the shots The empire is always watching

The Matrix in this movie lacked a green tint... That really does not give off a true Matrix vibe.

The genius of this movie is that your memories can be used against you to question your reality

This movie reminds me of She-Hulk. How the fans reactions are meant to be negative and built into the script. Why not make something that's good?

history of dance, in the left laptop.. 0:47

This movie was rage WITH the machine

Haven’t seen the movie, but in the clips of Niobe, Jada doesn’t really sell me as a genuine 80 yr old.

Only good part is Neo & Tiffany fly away together 🤍🖤

This movie seems to be constantly trying to explain itself within itself 😅

Lololol look at setys twin_ball hairstyle! :D

I appreciate the video you made. The truth about this film is literary a big middle finger to WB. Sure the resurrection of Neo and Trinity is seen as a meaningful way of expressing Lana's loss of her parents which is touching. But as a film it's is not in the original spirit of the trilogy. Just a cash grab in the minds of WB. Nostalgia is the new currency. And it's killing creativity and spawning garbage.

After watching this I realized the directors only had plans for the 1st movie.

In the film , they commented the matrix series was going to continue with out them So the director and cast made it a parody And killed the franchise it’s over Love is the equation Man + woman = life

I can barely remember much from this film, I've tried to banish it from my memory. I can defend Reloaded & Revolutions, they're not perfect films but they still add to the overall story and make sense. Resurrection on the other hand is just down right awful, they could of chose any story and it would of been better then this. They even mention a better plot in the film itself when talking about the machine war and how some machines are now on the side of the humans. This would of been a great plot, you could even follow the Machine "One" who has choice. Basically anything other then Neo & Trinity bullshit.

Sad to see once passionate and creative people become jaded cynics.

24:00

This movie just seemed like a parody of the original trilogy.

Any character may have Some archetype as inspiration , conscious or unconscious, in the mind of the author. So , two things must be true.... Firstly ,that the character may be ( poorly or) well described as the devil , regardless of the author's intent. Secondly, that All the characters may have some mythic or principle as analogy. Is the Keymaker then , perhaps , evolution personified?

Welp, at least we got to see Christina Ricci.

Thanks for this very thorough and really nicely edited review! But I have to say, I consider first three movies all great so you comparing Revolutions with Ressurections when it comes to characters and how you relate to them is complete blasphemy to me. Other than that I agree with pretty much everything you said and you mentioned several things I didn't even realize about Ressurections because I was so bored with the whole movie.

What I never got about these movies is how on Earth did Morpheus, Trinity, Neo, etc. gain mobility and sight in the real world if mobility and sight were never used? When born your brain makes those important connections within the first year of life. If they are not stimulated like they weren't in the real world the brain wouldn't make those vital connections and therefore as adults they would pretty much be invalids.

When something is perfect leave it be....there shouldn't be a 4th

Nothing new, only a Deja vu 🐈‍⬛

Sophia Stuart

Best one by a long way just to advanced for people

The "Red Letter Media" guys said this is the new "Gremlins 2", a sequel the filmmaker didn't want to make, so he (yeah, yeah, spare me) turned it into a parody and a meta commentary on the movie business and the audience and the executives who wanted a sequel. According to them, it is a sarcastic rebuttal of the idea of making late "Member Berry" sequels and it makes fun of the audience for thinking they wanted a sequel, when in reality they just wanted a lame rehash. I can't say myself, I didn't watch the movie and apparently they ("Red Letter Media") are the only ones who saw it that way, while every other critic I saw didn't seem to get the sarcastic meta commentary angle and just sees a failed sequel.

It’s funny cause tha games use clips from tha movies😅

Vanity is a Promise Unavailable to Fulfill... HELLY WIRED is AN Empty Promise given by The Fallen Angels...

Sorry N/A 0:32

I enjoyed it but I know it’s not good compared to the original

Devil’s advocate is not better a film than matrix resurrections I have seen the new matrix and I think is a masterpiece

"Only to repeat" What every other KZfaq critics said about the film 😑

If smith2.exe had a double chin, he would be connor from dbh in another franchise

It's Lana wachowskis sloppy way to say "I didn't even want to make the matrix reserections anyway"

I really enjoyed Resurrection but maybe because I am only a casual fan of the franchise. I prefer Reloaded to the original and don't think I ever finished the third so I'm not as invested as other people. It was fun with some nifty ideas and scenes. And I'm fine with that.

I just found it hilarious that Niobe kept cheating on both her husbands, much like her actress IRL

I just don't have any desire to watch this movie. The first was awesome, the other two were okay, but this one feels unnecessary. Sort of how the Star Wars Sequel Trilogy felt like an unneeded addition to the Skywalker story.

I fell asleep 3x trying to watch that movie lol and it was not that 🔥😂

This film was brilliant.. Basically stop glamorizing over sequels..

but I am in Poland

My husband keanu Reeves love you honey❤❤❤❤

Don't you see what Hollywood is doing to everything's meaning? Making movies with no meaning is the goal; the only way to make everything thrilling, intriguing, and eye-catching is to make everything meaningless.

"how is clips from the movie a game?" played matrix path of neo? practically the whole game is cutscene clips from the movie.

All the movies are great. I enjoyed the meta in the last film. Feels like real life

The Matrix honestly ended with the trilogy.

i think they nail'd it due to year 2021, if it was right after the 3rd movie we would see keeanu younger, morpheus, and agent smith. And "bugs" like bunny, seriously bro? why you shove disney bunny into matrix? just because i quote Lana kachowski "We just wanted to have fun". yeah fun in expense of fan's expectations, so yea she lost her dear ones really sorry to know, but why the fuck u making us suffer like you do??? i think it was with purpose to feel the sense of "seperation and anything comes to an end" like morpheus used to say.

It just regurgitates Greek philosophy.

His name is Chad because his name is Chad in real life. He was the stunt coordinator for the Matrix movies and directed the John Wicks.

lol old matrix better LEL, diss one looks realy wearth for some reason, almost looks like the sell Cosmetics XD NFT DLCs

Look like Cillian Murphy

As soon as I seen a girl with blue hair, I new it was going be corny amd woke. Doesn’t feel authentic at all

The best thing about matrix resurrection is watching this video, explaining the destruction of a masterpiece that was once called the matrix trilogy.

I think you are quite unfair to the movie by not accepting the fact that your heroes just aged and fined themselves in a new live gap, where they face old problems but with new conceptions. They developed, but so did the matrix/society either and persuades and distrectes more subversive the members way harder by using psychological manipulations more than the brutal power before. So: i liked the movie very much by giving the characters more space to evolve.

You want too much and I think the movie is good and to the people who did it good work I loved it to see neo and trinity together after the ending of last one where trinity died was too much for me but I understand it for what it was and you guys need to lighten up man

The trilogy is perfect.

I went to theaters to see this movie, TWICE, and for the love of god I didn't remember anything until this recap, god deam it I can't belive I wasted money on this and couldn't remember anything, the original trilogy delivered and maybe you can call the series a two parter since reloaded and revolutions are one Long movie, but yeah, nothing tops the original and this was just a big pile of nothing

Thanks for tackling this, since I was not going to watch the new one. Because, the last 2 movies in the franchise were rubbish, the third was unwatchable, but I pushed through.

A mechanical 2020s neutered vanilla meta mishmash - mildly entertaining, but lost all the magic of the original series. It’s almost as if the soul has been sucked out of humanity by AI replacing it’s presence as the governing organising force. It mimics soul, but comes across as tinny, hackneyed and like a poor impersonation that lacks any spirited resonance

This movie suckes a lemon. Poor Keanu. Doesnt deserve it.

The voiceover is so cynical lol I understand why though. The disappointment 😥

because i couldn't bring myself to watch this mess a 2nd time i'd forgotten just how extraordinarily awful it was. i don't think there was a single good frame

15th person to like

You're being way to easy, resurrections was a worthless pointless flaming POS that never should have existed.

This movie sucked and it made me feel stupid that I loved the original so much when I was a kid.

Well, to make it short: this movie was utter crap. But obviously WB still has some money left, because they're trying to flood IMDB with high ratings. I gave a 3 star rating, and that's being generous for the old times sake.

Just another disappointment and example that there is no writing talent left in Hollyweird.

If my plans work,i might try to work on matrix and make it a legend again with a story that will definitely make people run to theaters.

If you don't think this movie is terrible you never were a Matrix fan.
