Αρκετοί είναι αυτοί που μιλάνε με αρκετά θετικά σχόλια για την ταινία λέγοντας πως είναι το καλύτερο σίκουελ της σειράς, καλύτερο μάλιστα και από το 2 και το 3, με μάλιστα κάποιοι να την θεωρούν και μια από τις καλύτερες ταινίες της χρονιάς με τον κριτικό Nτέιβιντ Ελριτς από το Indiewire να λέει πως «είναι το πιο τολμηρό σίκουελ του Χόλιγουντ μετά το “The Last Jedi”».
Δεν είναι όμως όλα τόσο τέλεια μιας και κάποιοι ομολογούν πως η ταινία είναι τόσο meta που χάνει την όποια αξία της, ενώ κάποιοι μιλούν για χάρτινους νέους χαρακτήρες και για «2μιση ώρες σκληρού exposition και κακές σκηνές δράσης που θυμίζουν τις ταινίες του “Bourne”».

#TheMatrixResurrections is a terrific, awe-inducing, meta mind-bender completely in line with the franchise's legacy. Finds an innovative, high-concept way to frame the new story. Keanu Reeves & Carrie-Anne Moss’ chemistry burns. Jessica Henwick is a revelation! @TheMatrixMovie pic.twitter.com/xRawqiOcuu

#TheMatrixResurrections is an almost 2.5-hour exposition dump with choppy action scenes reminiscent of the Bourne movies. It reuses far too much footage from previous installments and is meta to a fault.

#TheMatrixResurrections is more fun than I remember the sequels ever being. Yes it's bogged down in exposition like the previous two, but there's a knowing wink to it all now. Newcomers Neil Patrick Harris and Jonathan Groff are key to that. Oh and the climax ROCKS. pic.twitter.com/2aWXYI7YAi

Saw #TheMatrixResurrections the other week (in IMAX!) and I enjoyed it! Easily better than 2 and 3. It feels like The Force Awakens - a nostalgic sequel/reboot to (maybe?) kick off a new franchise. Definitely rewatch the entire original trilogy in advance. Full review next week. pic.twitter.com/XHGQtkLcEB

I am deeply happy for those who will enjoy #TheMatrixResurrections. I am, regrettably, not among them. It’s leagues better than Reloaded and Revolutions - which let’s be clear are really not good - but has bad stakes. Nothing matters, and not in a cool nihilistic way. pic.twitter.com/RnbQutdkKR

#TheMatrixResurrections is a comedy. The action is disappointing and the new characters are thin. But the metatextual commentary is biting. It wrestles with its own legacy in that JURASSIC WORLD/BAD BOYS 3/RP1 fashion. I prefer the first three, but this is a wild swing. pic.twitter.com/7i3n5qUvOq

The Matrix Resurrections, despite (and because of) its infinite goofiness, is the boldest & most vividly personal Hollywood sequel since The Last Jedi. a silly/sincere galaxy brain take on reboot culture that makes peace with how modern blockbusters are now only about themselves.

The first act of #TheMatrixResurrections is STELLAR. Smart, funny, weird, self-referential & unexpected. Add to it wildly inventive action sequences, lofty storytelling decisions & a TON of big ideas that will fuel lots of questions. Trust me, multiple viewings will be required pic.twitter.com/q4jt0KQqft

#TheMatrixResurrections is a Matrix sequel, that’s for sure. Better than the last two, it still pales in comparison to the original. Some of the ideas bandied about are interesting, and the cast is game to be back, but not enough feels new here. Solid, but a letdown.#TheMatrix pic.twitter.com/fbsDhEzrO3

Absolutely adored #TheMatrixResurrections, which builds on where the sequels left off in beautiful and unexpected ways, and presents a world that's entirely consistent with what came before and also opens it up to a host of new stories. My synapses have been firing for days. pic.twitter.com/X16TuKK6Vc

#MatrixResurrections combined nostalgia, self-awareness of how the franchise framed the entertainment world, & pure fun into a package wrapped with a Keanu Reeves bow. He and Carrie-Anne Moss bring back that incredible chemistry that I loved so much from the first films. (1 of 2) pic.twitter.com/R2plTTzFbj

THE MATRIX RESURRECTIONS is very flawed. Long, plodding, and exposition driven. But it’s also directed/acted with so much sincerity and eagerness to do something new. It takes all the swings a Matrix sequel should make. It’s MANY things, but “safe” is NOT one of them. #TheMatrix pic.twitter.com/pUcxbCkUed

The Matrix Resurrections is the most META thing ever! The first 30 mins are HILARIOUS but they WORK. It is full of stunning visuals, intense moments, phenomenal cinematography, and it begs to be seen on the BIGGEST screen possible! Fingers crossed for a Matrix 5!#Matrix pic.twitter.com/JtuOF6aYao

THE MATRIX RESURRECTIONS is perfect, no notes; every bit as polarizing and obtuse as the other sequels and I’m elated it exists. Totally earnest Wachowski sci-fi silliness and jaw-dropping action. I will watch it 600 times. This is a sequel to the sequels. #Matrix

The Matrix Resurrections: best movie of the year? So angry, so joyous, so fun.
— Matt Patches (@misterpatches) December 17, 2021
Ironically, I posted this mere hours before seeing #TheMatrixResurrections, a legacy sequel that met all my expectations and then some. It honors the extant trilogy's resolution and finds a way to meaningfully move past it while preserving so much of what I love about this world. https://t.co/iP5n7fRoOB

#TheMatrixResurrections is a high octane nostalgic thrill ride w/ a little too much self awareness & an unnecessarily convoluted plot.

With any reboot the question is why. Sadly the reason for this feels more like a mulligan than a fresh start. #Matrix pic.twitter.com/OjtS2QGvbI
You'll probably see it on the Oscars shortlist for Visual Effects but it might 50/50 for something like sound.

All this needed to do was be better than the last one. Mission accomplished? #Matrix #Oscars pic.twitter.com/fj6UwiAxhO
#MatrixResurrections helps some of the issues with the sequels. Neo and Trinity get a touching story to and visuals get a hefty upgrade. Action sequences are OUTSTANDING and the trip back into the Matrix is TRIPPY! I didn't like some character choices but, I NEED a rewatch. pic.twitter.com/bEpQ6rX2vt
