The Matrix aged incredibly well. I remember seeing it in the early 2000's during the height of the 9/11 hysteria. The messages of questioning society and waking up to the truth resonated hard with me at the time. A lot of people I knew interpreted the Matrix as a message of realizing how rotten the status quo is and how it controls our lives. Most choose to be liberals or conservatives dutifully fulfilling whatever needs to get done in order to finish the day. Never really questioning anything and going along with what the state tells them.
The few that choose to think outside of that are awakened in another world where the powers that be do everything they can to keep them down out of fear that society will follow their lead and begin to question authority. Growing up in both a post-dictator country and the US during the Bush years really shaped how I viewed the Matrix.
The sequels are kind of okay. The remake is awful.
