Ugh.
Just... Ugh.
Why?
Really. Why?
This series should have ended with the first film and it would have been perfect.
I'll give some credit to The Animatrix as it's a pretty decent set of stories. However, The Matrix 2 and 3 (I can't even remember their names) were unnecessary and this fourth one was even more so. Oh, and the video game was pretty fun.
I call this one ADD theater as it kept getting distracted by itself. It's like it kept seeing a squirrel. It tried to be clever and instead just dropped every ball in doing so. It went all Meta but not in a fun way. Instead it was just annoying.
Changing out the actors for Laurence Fishburne and Hugo Weaving was a big mistake as well as it was completely unnecessary. There was also a lame attempt at explaining why Neo is even alive. (I had blocked The Matrix 2 and 3 so I completely forgot he had even died at the end of 3!).
The story for this one goes nowhere. I was bored for 90% of it. There are about three action sequences and they aren't very memorable.
Let the franchise die. Please.
No, I will not recommend this one. Go watch a John Wick movie instead and see Keanu as an awesome lead rather than this schlock.
