@tr0nic , you make some interesting observations. Morpheus being a Smith replica that chooses to be a Morpheus is an interesting concept. The movie's persistent use of mirrors as both imagery and means to progress the plot are not accidental. There's a lot individual ideas in Resurrections that I like, but just about anything that isn't about Neo and Trinity feels underdeveloped. I know a lot of material was cut for time, and I hope someday, maybe, a longer cut will be released (such as one that was confirmed to have been screened for critics) that will let these ideas breathe more.
I gave it three chances, and it never clicked with me. I've made peace with it. Maybe someday I'll give it another go, especially before that fifth movie comes out. But I can live with disliking a Matrix movie. I'm still a fan for life. I've come back to lesser series with far worse films in them!
