The Matrix is one of the most well-known cyberpunk movies; I’m not going to argue its cyberpunk qualities. But 20 years after The Matrix was relevant, we got a cash-grab sequel in Matrix Resurrections.
My question to you is: Is there anything cyberpunk left in Matrix Resurrections? Or has the franchise been so diluted that what’s left is no longer cyberpunk? For example, in the first movie Neo was a hacker. By this movie, I really wouldn’t call him a hacker anymore. But maybe the themes of “what it means to be human” still remain?
Did you watch the movie? The entire plot basically revolves around how another matrix game(film) is silly.
I did but the movie was so bad I blanked out a lot of it.
I do remember the game though
