No spoilers for Resurrections please, I've only watched the first 3 movies in the last couple of days. Yes, I know that I'm 20 years late to the party.

I think the first movie is great, I hated the long action scenes in the second (Neo vs the Smith army got boring after a couple of minutes, and added no value), and mostly enjoyed the third, even though it didn't really feel like a Matrix movie.

I've read that the fourth is terrible. Is that because it ruined people's nostalgia, or is it really that bad? I'm probably going to watch it either way, just like to hear your opinions.

I actually thought the newest matrix was a pretty fun romp. Not the best of the series - but others who shit on it like they do are being too harsh (in my opinion, art being subjective and all). I actually thought the way they came back to the matrix was pretty fun.

To be fair to the other fans who hated this one, I wasn’t super invested in the older movies so some of the other complaints never bothered me too much.
