People hate the sequels but in my opinion they were still awesome. I think most just didn't understand the conclusion.
That's because they are a philosophical and narrative mess. Not to mention they are a betrayal of the "free will" and "bringing down the system that is enslaving humanity" message that this movie sets up.
Sure they have entertaining action, but that doesn't make a good movie.
If you are a world religion major or a political science major the sequels are the greatest fiction of our time.
I feel old when I hear some people say they never saw the Matrix.
Don't feel bad...I saw "Star Wars" in the theater when it premiered.
What you should realise is this trilogy is a metaphor for spiritual enlightenment. From a Buddhist or Hindu perspective to 'awaken' is to realise the true nature of reality,to become one with the universal consciousness. You like most viewers hated Cypher but don't be so hard on him for he represents most of us, unwilling to experience 'reality' preferring to remain ignorant in our ego's and materialistic world.
Like Morpheus said "many of them are so inurd they will fight to protect it"
I'm old. I got to watch this in a theater when it came out and I kind of pity that younger people don't get that experience, because it was just unreal at the time. I will always have a soft spot in my heart for it and will catch any reaction that pops up. As for the other sequels, you should see them at least once, to say you did. They fill in some holes and have some cool fight scenes, but they go off the rails a bit too much for me. I'm glad you enjoyed it. If you watch the others, I'll catch your vids and show some love.
Projectors and a good studio monitor setup costs less than a big TV nowadays. Just get a projector, around 120" screen (that will fit on any wall in the tiniest apartment, speaking of experience here) and Fluid-FX8 or FX80s that will tear your walls down for the low price of 1500€ total.
The movie quality in this reaction has gotta be the the clearest. The audio quality and balance between the commentary and movie was excellent. Great reaction 👍
Neo’s decision to turn and fight in the subway is just 👌
"we are grown like tomatoes" lmao :D
Btw you gotta see Animatrix second renaissance to get more understanding how is the war between humans and AI (machines) has started.. it is really interesting and the chances of it being real is high specially with the technology right now (talk about Tesla's AI)
There was nothing like The Matrix before it hit the big screen, so you can imagine how *_our_* minds were blown back in 1999.
There was other films luke the Matrix before it was released. The Matrix just had unique camerawork.
Don't forget to Watch The AniMatrix (This explains so much and in particular the beginning of The Matrix), also produced by the Wachowskis, It's crucial for a total Matrix Experience.
Merci. ;)
Jcarts ur gonna love the martial arts in Matrix Reloaded! Alot of people say Reloaded is the best of the trilogy.
Get ready it gets crazy in the next movies.
One major complaint about this one, they say specifically if you die in the matrix you die in real life. Yet he didn't believe when he didn't make the jump from the building and basically fell to his death, but didn't die.
I might be wrong! BUT I think the idea is if the mind thinks it's dead "actually killed in the matrix" you die IRL. So they've made the road like a trampoline to keep you alive.
They weren't in the matrix itself there. They were in an adapted, training version of the matrix which allows them to set conditions - such as the trampoline effect on the road - designed to make it difficult for anyone to die there. At least, that's my take.
@@Pixelologist yes you are right
The jump program, the training programs, and their loading program all are running on a modified form of the Matrix. They're not actually connected to the main program. That's why they can freeze it and freely alter it (like the Woman In Red swapping to an Agent). Neo didn't die in the real world because he didn't die in the jump program; his impact was absorbed and then he was just mildly injured. You can see that the ground act as almost like a foam crash pad.
Although the sequels have entertaining action, they are a philosophical and narrative mess. Not to mention they are a betrayal of the "free will" and "bringing down the system that is enslaving humanity" message that this movie sets up. You my like them and be entertained, but you be tricked into thinking they are good movies.
Fun Fact: Legendary Hong Kong stunt coordinator Woo-Ping Yuen initially refused to work on the film. Even after receiving the script, which he liked, he hoped that by asking for an exorbitant fee, it would turn off the Wachowskis. When that failed, he next gave what he considered an impossible request: he'd agree only if he had complete control of the fights, and that he be allowed to train the actors, with his own team, four months prior to shooting. The Wachowskis complied.
Thanks for this reaction. This is by far my favorite movie of all time. It literally changed me. The depth is endless.
When I saw this in the theater in 1999, I walked out and looked at the sky and wondered if we were all just living in a virtual reality.
So many details to this movie. I looked up several references and it helped to explain everything.
Morpheus is the god of sleep who transformed a sleeper into a bird. Neo was asleep at the beginning and flew at the end.
Neo is an anagram for One. Neo is the One. Same letters.
The Hero's Journey is well presented here even better than in Star Wars. The best story lines fit in Joseph Campbell's explanation of ancient literature of how the hero gets pulled in and makes the sacrifice and then saves the day by living in 2 worlds. Joseph Campbell said that George Lucas was his greatest student when producing Star Wars, but I believe that the Matrix presents it far better if you understand the concept.
Anyway, thanks for this reaction. I can tell that you actually get it and that further research is required to fully understand.
Just research the names of the ship, the home, the characters and so on and you will get it. Hell, the name Thomas is about the Doubting Thomas who doesn't believe. Trinity was in room 303 where Neo got shot. Does the number 3 mean anything? You can spend hours digging into the meanings and it only makes you appreciate the movie even more. Just scratching the surface.
Thanks again.
I disagree with people that say to never watch the sequels. I think they are great in their own right. Just more fight scenes, and a lot of deep albeit sometimes confusing conversations. But great dialogue nonetheless. Plus you get to see the last human city of Zion, and just a lot of lore you’d be missing out on.
Agree!!
Sequels are terrible and only exist because of studio execs greed.
I was under the impression the Wachowski’s had this all planned out from the start but idk.
@@CrownlessKing88 Nope it was a one and done but studio saw how popular it was. A clue is how Neo obatin so many powerups/new abilities by the end of the first movie.
@@LarryBonson ok
Yes most definitely continue
Fun Fact: The rooftop chase in the beginning, they reused the rooftop from 'The Crow.'
I think it's from Dark City.
They are all good to watch
Definitely watch the sequels. Someone mentioned that they're a betrayal of the first film's message as if that's a negative, when I think that's one of their greatest assets. The first film is absolutely brilliant, one of my favorites, but it's very much a crowd-pleaser that postures with revolutionary ideas but ultimately falls in very conventional hero narrative. How much truth does it sacrifice to make the audience feel good? Without spoiling things, a major point of the sequels is that our rebel/oppressor narratives where we frame liberation through destroying the evil enemy can be just as much a Matrix as a literal one.
As movies the sequels aren't as elegant or tightly constructed as the first, and can be a bit clumsy, but they're still incredibly enjoyable, entertaining movies with killer action sequences. Plus Matrix 4 is confirmed a direct sequel to the third film, so if you plan on watching that watching the sequels is essential.
One thing though: you absolutely have to watch the Animatrix before diving into the sequels. It's an anthology of nine animated shorts that explore the world of the Matrix. They establish a lot of context for the sequels and are just damn good in and of themselves.
FEEL GOOD? its literally telling you the world is a scam.. lol its a take on western consumerism, gender roles, class etc.. theyre literally extracting everything they can from us... thats scary af.. ignorance is bliss ..
These are not revolutionary ideas. Such ideas have been explored for thousands of years, that is, the true nature of reality. See Hindu and Buddhist texts. Sorry Dorothy I think you need to go deeper 😉
You got a new subscriber from aussie land mate.. Epic reaction to one of the best mind blowing movies of all time.. Seeing this at the cinemas back in 99 was epic
awe thank you so much Speedy Master you are awesome :) !! I am highly glad you enjoyed the reaction !.
@@JCARTSARTS982 The matrix well the first one is a mind fuck, makes you question reality as it is now.. The other 2 movies are still damn good movies but go away slightly from the mythology of the mind fuck the first one gives ya
Really think you should watch "Drive" (2011)
Equilibrium and matrix are best of the best in this genre.
I laughed so hard when you said Grown like tomato's lol I remember the first time watching it over at my bothers house and the little robot shrimp freaked me out lol
You've got to see the making of the lobby scene! They are practical effects and not much of cgi.. you'll appreciate this movie more!
Great reaction btw!
there is no spoon...
oh yea and the Animatrix too, before reloaded (part 2)
I only liked the first one.
Sam and colby reaction pls🥺
Ah Laurence Fish-born
One of my favorite science fiction movies
I LOVE THE TRILOGY AND loking forward to new one. PLEASE REACT TO ALL OF EM. I am hoping you'll love em too as i did. thanks
I remember the first time I saw this movie I did not understand it at all …it made no sense and I hated it but just about a year ago my son wanted to watch it so I decided to sit down thinking that maybe I’ll get it now and I totally understood it and now I really like it lol great reaction 👍🏻👍🏻
Technically the Oracle told him the truth. One of them did die... but then got back up. 😁
Truly revolutionary movie of its time, and it really holds up today. Unfortunately the two sequels were not as enjoyable, in my opinion. Those were too confusing and weird.
This film is near perfect. The second is like upgrading from NES to SNES. The third is Nintendo 64. The fourth is AI.
The Matrix is great. Skip the sequels and probably the new one.
Get ready for Ressurections now! ; )
This is the only good one but it's a masterpiece.
The movie tells a perfect story. The sequels are neat, because why not spend more time in that world, but the story gets diluted.
Honestly that's pretty generic and probably applies to almost all sequels lol
And you think this is a movie.
Jeremiah 1:5 Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb (H7358) I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations.
Strong's H7358 rechem = womb, matrix
The message of this film is true. It's not about machines or a digital simulation, that is only an analogy. Most people are looking at this movie through the wrong lense.
"AI" is not about robots or technology, "AI/Artificial Intelligence" is in reference to false wisdom, the wisdom of the world, the blue pill 🔵. Because people do not like to retain the knowledge of God 🔴 in their minds, God allows people to have what they desire, and so they receive strong delusion and believe a lie, being asleep to the truth.
1 Corinthians 1:22-29
For after that in *the wisdom of God 🔴 *the world BY WISDOM 🔵 knew not God,* it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe.
22For the Jews require a sign 🔵, and the Greeks seek after wisdom🔵:
23But we preach Christ crucified 🔴, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness;
24But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.
25Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.
26¶For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called:
27But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;
28And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are:
29That no flesh should glory in his presence.
Matthew 11:15 - *He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.*
Matthew 11:15 - *He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.*
Matthew 11:15 - *He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.*
Nobody understands Cyphor. Everyone hates him. He is the judas but jesus forgave him.
Cyphor is a metaphor for most of us, he doesn't want to wake up to the true nature of reality. Buddhists call this enlightenment.
Cyphor does what we all do, we act incorrectly out of fear. Don't hate him, he is me and you.
He is the man who takes the easy way instead of the right way.
Don't waste your time to watch the sequels of Matrix. The sequels are horrible only this movie is great. You already did Dark City 1998 the came out before (They actually took set from that movie for the Matrix) . You can also do the movie the 13th floor with the same ideas . You can check up other great Keanu Reeves movies like Speed, Point Break, Constantine, The Devil Advocate.
Dude, your hair is wrecking my OCD 🤯
lmao your comment made me genuinely laugh !!, thank you for the comment and sorry about that looks like I need another haircut haha .
@@JCARTSARTS982 I'm just messing with ya✌️
@@JCARTSARTS982 lmao hair is fine!
