4/10
Visually stunning but conceptually confusing
25 April 2024
Having viewed the original Matrix trilogy many years ago and enjoyed the original, while enjoying parts of the second and third but mostly forgetting what occurs in them. This latest entry in the series seemingly 18 years after the previous third film.

Resurrections is rated the lowest of the series on IMDB (although on RottenTomates Revolutions is rated far worse- look it up) and it's possibly justified. The acting isn't bad, the visuals are possibly better than ever. The concepts seems decent but it's execution and overall story was quite slow paced making it hard to follow. Quite more confusing than expected. A lot of scene jumping back and forth made it difficult in seeing what was real and what wasn't.

It does feel very detailed with different interpretations but this would mainly be enjoyed for true diehard fans. It does seem like a lot of effort was out into it. Although if anything this movie feels like a cash grab and was made due to the resurgence of Keanu Reeves' career from the John Wick franchise.
