Today is December 22nd, which marks one year since The Matrix Resurrections was released in theatres. The film saw the return of Keanu Reeves and Carrie-Anne Moss as Neo and Trinity, and it was the first in the franchise in 18 years. After its release, the new movie was met with mixed reactions from fans. Currently, the Lana Wachowski film is up on Rotten Tomatoes with a 63% critics score and 63% audience score. While this isn’t nearly as high as the original film’s score, The Matrix does have a lower rating than you’d expect on the review site. The 1999 classic has an 88% critics score and an 85% audience score. The second film, The Matrix Reloaded, also faired better than Resurrections with a 73% critics score and a 72% audience score. However, Resurrections did better than The Matrix Revolutions, which earned a 34% critics score and a 60% audience score. ComicBook.com gave The Matrix Resurrections a 4 out of 5 and called it “a worthy sequel fueled by nostalgia and romance,” and we aren’t the only ones who enjoyed the film. Today, many fans have taken to Twitter to celebrate the movie’s first anniversary.
