I was genuinely surprised that trailer actually kind of made me want to see the movie. When I heard a fourth Matrix movie was coming, I just assumed it would be bad. The Wachowskis haven't exactly had a track record of success since the original Matrix. I guess I'll wait and see what the reviews are like.
From the trailer, the movie looks like a retread of the first one. Keanu Reeves doesn’t know what’s really going on. He gets a choice: red pill/blue pill? Now his mind is open! Great choice, Keanu! Kung fu and bullet time galore.
I mean, I can see why they’d rehash the same beats as The Matrix. It’s the only good movie the Wachowskis have ever made. But I’m not excited to see it. The first movie didn’t need a sequel. The story worked on it’s own. And those sequels are so bad, they ruin my memories of the original.
We might give it a whirl just because we have HBOMax, but I have a feeling we’ll end up cutting it short. I hope it’s a good movie, but I’m not optimistic.
Nice use of White Rabbit, though.

A “retread of the first one”? Really?
are you sure you didn’t accidentally watch the trailer for Taken?
