Plagued by strange memories, Neo’s life takes an unexpected turn when he finds himself back inside the Matrix.

It’s been 18 years since the end of The Matrix trilogy, a sci-fi franchise that has become iconic for its fascinating premise, insane action setpieces, and most importantly, bullet time. A co-director of that trilogy, Lana Wachowski, returns to the series to helm The Matrix Resurrections, the newest sci-fi actioner featuring the return of Keanu Reeves and Carrie-Anne Moss as Neo and Trinity. This film is set years after The Matrix Revolutions, where Neo and Trinity live separate lives inside the Matrix with no memory of their past until they find themselves sent back into the rabbit hole.

This movie was an exciting experiment for Wachowski, as she would have to tell a new story with now-iconic characters. At times, she even seems to voice her frustrations in the film, using the characters as a mouthpiece for what The Matrix means to people everywhere. This is a surprisingly meta film fully aware of its existence and the legacy of the original films. With her pure ambition and lack of a desire to appeal to audiences everywhere, Wachowski has crafted a film that works in some ways, doesn’t work in others, but still works in the long run.
