It does look 15 years old but still cool!
Perfect!
If it has robots, it is already 70% cyberpunk in my book :)
Matrix Resurrections was Terminator Genisys bad. It took real effort not to look away from the screen.
The action was weak with constant slow motion and no impact. Neo spends the whole movie spamming force pushes. Trinity's return made no sense and had zero buildup. Morpheus was turned into a meme. Smith was just some guy with no presence. The new crew was forgettable. The meta commentary was embarrassing and killed any immersion. It felt like the film hated being a Matrix movie and wanted out.
There is nothing left of the original Matrix in Resurrections. The cyberpunk core is gone. The hacker spirit is gone. The rebellion is gone. What’s left is a hollow, sanitized product dressed up in nostalgia. Neo is no longer a hacker. He is a corporate symbol repackaged for profit. The themes have been watered down to the point of meaninglessness. This is not cyberpunk. This is marketing.
I've only watched 2 episodes and to me it was too much gender and sex.
Will they renew it for one more season now that the new writers took over?
I would rather want to see it being dark than full of silly humour.
Having Jared Leto has recently become bad luck for movies. I would rather like to see the continuation of Tron: Legacy story with Sam and Quorra.
Robocop was the first true Cyberpunk movie I've watched as a kid and I keep coming back to it every two years.
