After 22 years, the Hollywood blockbuster finally produced a sequel, but only 52 million box office in 5 days

Shortly after the beginning of the year;

There is the first Hollywood blockbuster that has officially entered the domestic market;

This movie is the fourth work of the most classic series before, "The Matrix";

At present, the film has been released for 5 days, and the box office is about 52 million yuan.

I believe that many audience friends who have watched "The Matrix";

Most people will recognize the filmmaking of this series.

Because of the previous trilogy;

It is arguably the most successful film series produced in Hollywood.

And the original "Matrix" movie trilogy plus animated series version;

This story has been constructed into a perfect closed loop;

So when the preparations for The Matrix 4 began;

Everyone is not very optimistic about this film work;

Because in a series that has been closed loop;

Insert a new series of works;

It is indeed a difficult thing to accept;

Sure enough, this time, "The Matrix 4" suffered a double hit of word of mouth and box office in China.

This sequel to a Hollywood blockbuster after twenty-two years;

Where exactly is the failure?

Let's take a look at it with Aler.

1. Synopsis from The Matrix 4

In the previous third part;

Trinity confirms Neo's foreknowledge;

Died on the ship;

And Neo was also blinded by the traitors;

And after Neo reached an agreement with the machine;

Helped the machine defeat Smith;

But exhausted by the machine;

It can be said that the whole story has officially ended;

The two protagonists, Neo and Trinity, have already completed their mission and are officially finished.

But it is the story in the fourth part;

The opening chapter also begins with a tribute to the classic beginning of the first part;

But after Neo appeared;

However, the previous three works were treated as a game;

Neo is the developer of a game company;

The previous three stories were games developed by Neo;

And the company began to let Neo and the team prepare for the fourth game;

This setting is indeed very novel.

But Neo's own subconscious and sense of déjà vu are still haunting him;

So he can only go to a psychologist for treatment;

Start taking blue pills to stabilize your condition;

And what Neo did not expect was;

He meets a man who dresses like the character Morpheus in his game;

And brought him a red pill;

Originally these were his settings in the game;

But it really appeared in front of him.

However, this time Neo still chose the red pill;

Awakened from the matrix again;

It turned out to be everything before;

The same is the illusion created by the machine for him;

Erasing his memories allows Neo to help the matrix maintain balance;

Also Trinity is next to Neo;

The same balance that Neo has maintained;

Only in the matrix Trinity also lost her memory;

Didn't know Neo;

So Neo and the new team;

Again, the matrix began to fight.

In fact, this "Matrix 4" as a separate film work;

Still very good;

But if you put it in the entire Matrix series;

But it seems that there is something unusual;

Because it upset the original balance;

What is still shaped is the story between the main player Neo and Trinity;

It can be said that the overall plot is presented;

It really opened the eyes of Alele;

Because of the heart of the film's creator;

It's also fully revealed in the movie.

2. The journey of the creator of "The Matrix 4"

I believe that many viewers think that the previous trilogy has been perfectly shaped;

The same is true of the creative team of The Matrix;

Then after more than twenty years, a new work has been shaped again;

This is also a major problem for the main creative team;

In the first half of the film;

Although the story is very novel;

But all of them reflect the main creative team's anxiety about this fourth part.

The film is dominated by a matrix game made by Neo;

The first three series are very popular with everyone;

So Warner planned to prepare a fourth work;

And the creator of the movie also directly spat on the old company Warner with lines;

It was in the process of Neo's conversation with the new Smith;

New Smith directly said that Warner has been pushing them;

If you don't make a fourth part;

Then the contract between the two parties may be terminated.

So under tremendous pressure;

The team of "The Matrix" also reluctantly began to prepare for this fourth work;

Neo in the first half of the section itself;

It's basically the image of the production team;

Place the little yellow duck on your head while bathing;

It also fully confirms the helplessness of the main creative team;

But did they really think about how to make this fourth work?

It is also presented in the film.

That's when Neo and his game team were talking about how to make Matrix 4;

In the course of the discussion;

It can also be seen through their lines;

They really thought it wrong;

And I thought about it very carefully;

Whether for Warner's requirements;

Or are they going to come up with some new ideas;

It can be felt in the lines;

But in the end this "The Matrix 4";

It still became a street-throwing work.

In fact, this has a lot to do with the original style of the "Matrix" series;

Originally created in The Matrix;

Although the computer has become popular in the United States;

However, at that time, the computer was still relatively new in China;

In such an environment;

Making "The Matrix" a very brilliant novel film work at that time;

But today's "The Matrix 4";

But there is no way for the audience to feel that point;

Let's continue to look at some of the reviews about this "Matrix 4" with Le Feng.

3. Some reviews from The Matrix 4

In fact, in the first half of the film, the Neo team is constantly discussing;

Already let people feel that this movie will be like a four-different existence;

Because Warner is a little bit about the production of movies;

That is, the bloody scenes that require all kinds of gun battles and drag racing;

Bullet time is also added to it;

For Warner;

As soon as the scene goes up;

The film was a success in their eyes.

So after the creator finished the first half of his mental journey;

He began to continue to play Neo and Trinity;

After all bullet time exists;

Not without Neo;

It is not possible to have Neo without Trinity;

And the rest of the new characters;

It is all for these two;

After Neo continues to return to the real world;

The film begins to explain how Neo's eyes are restored;

How did Trinity come back to life and continue to enter the matrix.

In terms of setting, it is indeed connected to the third work of the previous work;

But the film still forgets a little;

Neo and Trinity are "old men" after all;

Under the new settings;

These two people, who are already in their fifties, really make the audience not feel much;

and in the new settings;

Neo is no longer able to fly in the new matrix;

Although it is said that the freehand block bullet still exists;

But it doesn't get much attention.

The first half of the film is very calm about the team's production experience;

And some stories in the real world and the matrix after many years;

And the last part is still in response to Warner's meaning;

Drag racing, gunfights, etc. all arrived;

This is also the existence of the so-called big scene;

It is obvious that the main creative team did not want to make this film at all;

But Warner said it if they didn't shoot;

Will find a new team to shoot;

The movie is still going to be made anyway.

So instead of letting someone else smash their signboard;

It is better to smash it by the creator himself;

Just such a four-different film work is presented to the audience;

Isn't The Matrix 4 innovative?

In fact, there are still some;

After all, only the plot of the first paragraph is extracted;

It is completely possible to create a new story that is detached from the real matrix;

In the movies;

There is also a spit of the wanderer;

The same is the main creator spit on Warner, the old company.

The film also gives the ending that the main creative team originally hoped for;

That is what they need is a peaceful ending without war;

It's just that Warner doesn't allow it;

So the whole movie is actually very seriously divided;

The hugging and kissing of the elderly Neo and Trinity actually has no beauty;

But they can only do this;

And the rest of those newcomers;

Nor is there much introduction;

It's exactly the character of the formalities.

In the end, this "Matrix 4" not only did not connect well with the previous three works;

And it directly ruined this classic series;

I have to say that this production is Warner's biggest failure;

The theme of "The Matrix" is very good;

But its time is over;

Continue to take it out in the new era;

But it is impossible to construct a story that everyone recognizes;

So what's the point of making this movie?

Le Feng really didn't want to understand what Warner really thought;

After destroying DC;

Are they going to destroy the other classics one by one?

4. Conclusion

The Matrix 4 does not represent the end of the series at all;

Because the period between them has already been drawn;

Its existence is undoubtedly very sudden;

There is no green filter from the previous series;

Although this setting is to make the matrix appear more realistic;

But it is divorced from the original intention of "The Matrix";

So now the film is made;

It's really discrediting the series;

I hope Warner can think about why this "Matrix 4" will hit the street later.

Well, today's introduction and reliance on The Matrix 4 has officially come to an end;
