The real reason? No one wanted it nor asked for it.

Wow... This review is huge pile of horse shit 😂

I honestly can't take any review seriously that has to do such aggressive mental gymnastics to blame the audience for a movie doing bad. Completely missing the point as well IMO that many of the issues of that movie were that it was a lazy, poorly done retrace of the previous movies.

Having seen it now I agree. This reels like a precursor to a new form of ChatGPT clickbait/rage content.

Interesting take. I found it bad even without this analysis, but it's interesting to have an other perspective.

It was horribly written, just like the other sequels. The Wachowskis aren't good filmmakers, and are even worse at content development. What a stupid article.
