      Yeah, but be in the mood. Will make the third movie more enriching.

                And John Wick is also a hell of a lot of fun to watch. Absolute non stop amazing shooting/action scenes.

                As with all movies…just make sure you’re in the mood for that type of movie!

                    Measured in Violent Deaths per Minute (not counting epic war movies), they are among the highest.

                    Throughout the movies they are so polite. I like that.

                      Nothing wrong with the two sequels, they are good, entertaining movies on their own rights. Just that the first Matrix movie is so exceptionally refreshing that it is hard for any sequel to measure up.

                      Most likely I will also watch the Matrix Resurrections movie, but I harbor no high hope that it will introduce any refreshing new idea that has not already been explored in the first Matrix movie.

                        There is actually a lot of acquired firearms skill on Keanu's part.

                          @Jolly that was amazing. He knows his way around firearms, to be sure. I was impressed by his skill using his left hand as well.

                          They say that Reeves is a really nice and humble guy.

                              On a vaguely related note, this is well worth watching. Shows how much prep went into making Band of Brothers.

                                  @George-K @Doctor-Phibes @89th after watching that, I binged on a few Maj. Winters interviews. Some interesting stuff:

                                  • Blythe from Band of Brothers, Episode 3, was actually a badass. He survived WWII. When the Korean War broke out, he volunteered. Again as a paratrooper. While there he was awarded a silver star, a bronze star, and a purple heart. Died in '67.
                                  • Spiers did indeed do that shit.

                                  Please love yourself.

                                    I watched them both this weekend.

                                    The 2nd is a better movie, imo, but needs the 3rd to finish the story. It's my understanding that they were filmed at the same time.

                                        I watched it, The Matrix Resurrections.
                                        Certainly pays a lot of homage to the original trilogy.
                                        Acting and cinematography are generally good.
                                        Makes fun if itself, which is fine.
                                        Storytelling, at least in the first half, is even more confusing than the first Matrix movie.
                                        Not breaking any new ground, the first Matrix movie has done enough of that.
                                        Overall, this movie to the original Matrix franchise is like The Rise of Sky Walker to the original Star Wars movie.

                                          I’m in the middle of Resurrections. I quite liked the computer game thing

                                          I’ve seen worse movies

                                          I was only joking
