The Profile

Frequently collaborates with sibling Lilly Wachowski. Career began with Bound (1996). Co-creator/director of The Matrix films (1999–2021).

Joe Strummer views Matrix Resurrections through the lens of nostalgia and disillusionment. He finds the film derivative, overly meta and lacking in fresh ideas. The review argues the film depends on past glories rather than offering meaningful new insights. Overall, a strongly negative reassessment.
