I just got out. It wasn't bad boys. It was more like the matrix 1 than 2 or 3.
The two screengrabs on .win front page are both literally 3 seconds in the 2.5 hour movie and it's actually sarcastic. That's part of the "newly updated" matrix and it's understood that the audience sees the matrix as a shit version of life and this scene in particular is poking fun at woke clueless game developers (implying they are precoded non-sentient beings stuck inside the matrix).
I'd give it a watch if you're a fan of the matrix 1, it's not stellar but it wasn't awful and definitely not a 2 hour trans-rights lecture like I was expecting.
I was worried the precident that the matrix set which is freedom, sentience, the power of the individual, would be ignored, but it was the central premise of 4.
Meh. Don't get me wrong it wasn't anywhere close to what 1 was.
The meta-talk was part of the first half hour before the audience realizes it's actually the matrix. It has woke shit but then later in the movie it's explained that people are tortured and made miserable on purpose to generate more energy for the machines. The plot made sense except it ran very fast. Almost like half the movie was played at 1.25x speed. Makes me think this the prequel to the sequel.
Not the worst of the 4 for sure.
I sat through it today after giving up 10 minutes in last night based off this comment! This screenshot in particular is part of a montage where Neo is miserable at work.
It’s not really preachy or woke at all in terms of the plot. It’s just a terrible, terrible movie. Like George Clooney batman movie quality.
Going tonight to watch in IMAX. Im expecting literal dog shit, so maybe ill be surprised. Ill let u know
They're not back yet. I don't think they made it through the movie.
He got arrested for not clapping hard enough. It happens in communist struggle sessions
How’d you go mate? Or did you throw yourself off the top of the imax?

Oh shit. So there’s still some hope after all. I’ll probably still pirate it - but thanks for letting us know mate.
I don't know whether to believe you, or this review: https://communities.win/p/140vQyDJpp/x/c/4JJhHQeIjjf
Considering I've seen other reviews similar, I think you're lying.
Edit: I've since seen the movie myself and this person is absolutely lying.
