Watch Keanu Reeves And Carrie-Anne Moss In Second Trailer For THE MATRIX RESURRECTIONS

A brand-new trailer is here for the highly anticipated THE MATRIX RESURRECTIONS.

From visionary filmmaker Lana Wachowski comes “The Matrix Resurrections,” the long-awaited next chapter in the groundbreaking franchise that redefined a genre. The new film reunites original stars Keanu Reeves and Carrie-Anne Moss in the iconic roles they made famous, Neo and Trinity.

In “The Matrix Resurrections,” return to a world of two realities: one, everyday life; the other, what lies behind it. To find out if his reality is a physical or mental construct, to truly know himself, Mr. Anderson will have to choose to follow the white rabbit once more. And if Thomas…Neo…has learned anything, it’s that choice, while an illusion, is still the only way out of—or into—the Matrix. Of course, Neo already knows what he has to do. But what he doesn’t yet know is the Matrix is stronger, more secure and more dangerous than ever before. Déjà vu.

Reeves reprises the dual roles of Thomas Anderson/Neo, the man once saved from the Matrix to become the savior of humankind, who will once again have to choose which path to follow. Moss portrays the iconic warrior Trinity… or is she Tiffany, a suburban wife and mother of three with a penchant for superpowered motorcycles?

Yahya Abdul-Mateen II (“Candyman,” the “Aquaman” franchise) plays the wise and worldly Morpheus who, as always, serves as a guide to Neo while also fulfilling his own greater purpose on a very singular journey of self-discovery.

Jessica Henwick (TV’s “Iron Fist,” “Star Wars: Episode VII – The Force Awakens”) plays the hacker Bugs, the proverbial white rabbit on a mission to discover the one who sacrificed himself for humankind–and willing to take any risk necessary in search of the legend she idolizes.

Jonathan Groff (“Hamilton,” TV’s “Mindhunter”), plays Thomas Anderson’s business partner, a slick, confident corporate type with insouciant charm, a disarming smile and an eye on the bottom line–everything Mr. Anderson is not.

Neil Patrick Harris (“Gone Girl”) plays Thomas’ therapist, working closely with his patient to understand the meaning behind his dreams and to distinguish them from reality.

Priyanka Chopra Jonas (TV’s “Quantico”) plays a young woman with a wisdom that belies her years and an ability to see the truth, no matter how murky the waters.

And Jada Pinkett Smith (“Angel Has Fallen,” TV’s “Gotham”) returns as Niobe, the fierce General who once fought for the survival of Zion and who now sees to the welfare of her people with a familiar fire in her eyes, despite a sense of disbelief and suspicion upon Neo’s return.

Lana Wachowski directed from a screenplay by Wachowski & David Mitchell & Aleksandar Hemon, based on characters created by The Wachowskis. The film was produced by James McTeigue, Lana Wachowski and Grant Hill. The executive producers were Garrett Grant, Terry Needham, Michael Salven, Karin Wachowski, Jesse Ehrman and Bruce Berman.

Wachowski’s creative team behind the scenes included “Sense8” collaborators: directors of photography Daniele Massaccesi and John Toll, production designers Hugh Bateup and Peter Walpole, editor Joseph Jett Sally, costume designer Lindsay Pugh, visual effects supervisor Dan Glass, and composers Johnny Klimek and Tom Tykwer.

Warner Bros. Pictures Presents, In Association with Village Roadshow Pictures, In Association with Venus Castina Productions, “The Matrix Resurrections.” The film will be distributed worldwide by Warner Bros. Pictures. It will be in theaters nationwide and on HBO Max via the Ad-Free plan on December 22, 2021; it will be available on HBO Max in 4K UHD, HDR10, Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos (English only) on supported devices for 31 days from theatrical release.

THE WHITE TIGER – Review

As we ease into the new year, many might agree that a great way to start the 2021 cinema year is to enjoy a “rags to riches” success story. Perhaps “fable” might be the more appropriate word in this story. And just for some extra spice, it’s set in a distant foreign land, but only a decade or so ago. Like the big Oscar-winning Best Picture of 2008, SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE, it is set mainly in the dusty crowded streets of India. But that’s where the comparisons end. There’s no big “feel good” song and dance finale to leave you with a grin as you head to the lobby (or more likely as you switch off your device). As a matter of fact, this film’s hero openly derides that earlier work. So, who is this “basher’? He’s the focus of the story, a young man who, at one time, was called, with much admiration, THE WHITE TIGER.

The holder of that feline nickname is actually named Balram (Adarsh Gourav), who, as the story begins, is enjoying a wild, life-altering late-night drive in 2007. But before we learn too much, things fast forward to 2010 as he intently watches a news report about the Chinese Premier’s upcoming visit to India. Balram, now a perfectly tailored and coifed tycoon, sits down in his plush office to compose an introductory email to the visiting dignitary. The message begins as an autobiography. He tells of growing up “dirt poor” in a remote village, far from good schools and even doctors. He and his older brother are raised by their widowed father, but all cower before the family matriarch, Granny. At what passes for a school, Balram’s skills at reading make him a stand-out, prompting a visiting supervisor to dub him a rarity, as unique as a white tiger. He’s even given permission and papers to be transferred to a better school in a bigger town, but Granny nixes his dream. Balram is to help out at his poppa’s tea shop, mainly breaking chunks of coal into small nuggets. Growing up, he observes the celebrated visits from the village’s “landlord”, nicknamed “The Stork” who collects the rupees with the help of his thuggish portly son “The Mongoose”. Then as the years pass, Balram is surprised when the duo becomes a trio when he sees a second son, the impeccably dressed, worldly Ashok (Rajkummar Rao). It’s then that Balram hatches a plan. Surely they now need a second driver! He pleads with Granny for the funds to take driving lessons. After he snags a permit, Balram shows up at the Stork’s opulent estate. After a bit of “skullduggery”, he ousts the main driver and is tasked with transporting Ashok and his beautiful “raised in the USA” bride “Pinky Madam” (Priyanka Chopra Jonas). As Ashok’s family becomes more involved in national politics (doling out lots of bribes to avoid taxes on their coal interests), young Balram carefully begins to formulate a way to leave his lowly “servant” status behind and acquire the mantle of “master”.

Few actors have tackled a character’s “story arc” in a role as complex as Balram, and even fewer could “pull it off” with the skill of Gourav in the lead title role. With his beaming eyes and a broad smile, he conveys the fable’s “hero” as a wide-eyed eager innocent for most of the story’s “first act”, easily recalling any number of cinema “go-getters” cast from the mold of Horatio Alger’s young heroes of print. Then ugly ambition darkens that sweet “spark”, first in his elimination of his driving competitor, then as his eyes linger over the indulgencies of the affluent. Gourav shows us Balram soaking everything in while the “wheels” in his brain begin churning out a strategy. The joyful “lapdog” suddenly dishes out casual cruelty with little remorse. His moral “awakening” unleashes his inner beast. And Gourav hits every “note” with confidence. Matching his every “step” is his “master” and expert scene partner Rao, who immediately “takes” to Balram, “bumping” him up from servant/slave to kid brother confidant. His Ashok is the “cool boss”, though he still embraces much of the “old ways” (sending Balram to live in the fancy hotel’s parking garage). But he also “transforms”, sliding into the darkness of despair and addiction as he treats Balram almost as a “whipping boy”. Rao expertly takes Ashok from kind to cold. But his warm nurturing side really comes out when he’s interacting with the charismatic Chopra Jonas as his feisty mate Pinky. Stemming from her American upbringing, Pinky’s almost an incomprehensible alien to most of the males aside from her hubby (and the smitten Balram). She’s also a “bright light” amidst the moral darkness surrounding her in-laws. Chopra Jonas brings the passion to the scenes where she stands up to Ashok’s clan for their treatment of Balram, Ultimately Pinky has her own “turning point” as a tragedy almost extinguishes her “flame”. Her formidable talents are an essential part of the story’s principal trio.

This tale of greed, avarice, and “social climbing” is a true dramatic “rollercoaster” constructed by filmmaker Ramin Bahrani, who directed and wrote the screenplay adaptation of the novel by Aravind Adiga. Though it’s a big scripting “no-no” (remember the advice in ADAPTATION). Bahrami never overuses the “first-person narration” structure. It’s as though we’re reading Balram’s email bio over her shoulder. After the big time jump in the opening five minutes (almost “whiplash-inducing”) Bahrami “settles in”, but still peppers the story with quick cuts back to the village from the city or the mansion (especially to show the fatal consequences” of Balram’s plotting). He’s especially skilled at illustrating Balram’s inner ideas, particularly the “rooster coop” analogy, which he believes keeps his family (really most of his country) stuck in poverty. And much like another film “success” story THE FOUNDER, this “hero” is anything “but” as he climbs the ladder. His “comfort” comes with a hefty price (his soul, perhaps). A big asset to the work is the dazzling cinematography from Paolo Carnera. This skilled team makes THE WHITE TIGER a truly compelling and ferocious film feline.

ISN’T IT ROMANTIC (2019) – Review

“Hello, film lovers, where ever you are…” (with apologies and props to Rogers and Hammerstein). Yes, it’s that holiday, once again, so are the Hollywood studios offering any sort of “movie nightcap” to that special, intimate evening? Well, the flick opening today does have romance (well, a variation) in the title. But look at the lead actress. She’s perhaps best known for raunchy comedies, more “raw-coms” than “rom-coms”. That should clue you in that this flick offers a much sharper take (razor-sharp at times) on the now familiar “kisses and chuckles” feature. This gives several interpretations to the question posed by the Valentine’s Day release, ISN’T IT ROMANTIC. Oh, and don’t try and sneak in any heart-shaped boxes of candy into the multiplex, okay?

The story begins a couple of decades ago, as the camera gives us a full close-up of adorable nine-year-old Natalie, with an expression of pure bliss as she watches (probably not her first viewing) the 1990 classic PRETTY WOMAN. Of course, her weary, life-battered Mum (Jennifer Saunders) walks in to burst her baby’s bubble, warning her that life is very much not like these types of bubbly flicks. Cut to today, NYC, as now thirty-something Natalie (Rebel Wilson) wakes up in her dingy, tiny apartment. After saying hi to her surly unfriendly neighbor Donny (Brandon Scott Jones), she heads to her architect job at a messy, crowded downtown design firm. No one respects her except her frowsy aide Whitney (Betty Gilpin), who spends much of her days streaming, you guessed it, “rom-coms” on her computer screen, and best “work pal”, the ever-encouraging and jovial Josh (Adam Devine). Later that day, a subway altercation KO’s Natalie. When she wakes up in a very comfy hospital bed, it seems like everything’s changed (maybe better, definitely weirder). As she walks out into the now immaculate streets, she has a “meet cute” with an instantly-smitten Aussie billionaire named Blake (Liam Hemsworth). After taking her home in his limo (and giving his “digits”), Natalie is stunned by her now lush and luxurious apartment, with a fully stocked (all those shoes) walk-in closet. And (certainly “out of the closet”) waiting for her (he’s got a key, natch’) is her “BFF” Donny, now friendly and extremely flamboyant, devoted to her alone (does he have a job or an outside life). Things are certainly different at her now plush, upper-crust design office. Oh, but now Whitney is a super-competitive, rhymes-with-witchy rival. Luckily Josh is still the same supportive pal. Ah, but he’s not immune to this “turn of events”, as he starts a fast “meet cute” turned romance with the gorgeous “yoga ambassador” Isabella (Priyanka Chopra). Natalie realizes that she’s in an artificial world based on “rom-com” cliches. Is she forever “trapped” or will she find a way to return to her “real world” before losing Josh forever?

In a role quite different from her usual “party hard” twirling dervish, Wilson makes a solid cynical leading lady, calling out the genre tropes and cliches. Though she’s treated as a “beguiling” (Blake’s go-to phrase) queen, she knows that she must get back to our ole’ cruel world and makes us root for her to complete her “quest”. Plus Wilson uses her slapstick gifts to great effect in several physical gags (stopping a careening kabob cart) and a couple of musical numbers (hey there Amy). Speaking of music, she teams up once more with her PITCH PERFECT partner Devine for scenes that bristle with true chemistry (a real bit of movie “shorthand”). Luckily Devine has toned down the aggressive energy that has made many of his film roles a tad abrasive. This “mellow” almost verges on the cloying, coming off as a needy puppy in the early scenes, but he bounces back when he finds this “new NY” more appealing. Hemsworth has a winsome, goofy vibe as the fantasy “prince of the city”, yearning to take Natalie away in his carriage..er..stretch limo. Chopra is charming as the fantasy femme whose claws come out as she realizes the strong bond between the “normal” duo. Happily, the film has a couple of terrific supporting players who become the story’s true MVPs. Straight from the wrestling ring of the Netlix sitcom “Glow” comes Gilpin, showcasing her versatility in two distinct versions of Whitney. Whit 1.0 is a frizzy, mosey mess, who has been suckered in by movie fibs and spouts silly platitudes to “help” Natalie (“The right man will see your inner light”). Even more fun is Whit 2.0, a crimson-haired barracuda turning the air toxic with her withering glares and savage slams (“I’m taking you down!!”). Oh, but that “f-word” truly describes the “go-for-broke” work of Jones as the (another “f-word”) fabulous Donny, bouncing from every corner of the screen like a martini-swilling Tigger, only slowing down to deliver just the right “pep talk” to his fave “grrrlll”. He’s a real-life cartoon, in the best sense of the word.

There are a lot of truly inspired comic gems and “call-backs” in the witty, satirical script from Erin Cardillo, Dana Fox, and Katie Silberman. I was particularly amused when, in the new “world”, Natalie tries to drop the “f-bomb”, but is constantly drowned out by ambient noise (car horns, alarm clocks, etc.), thus ensuring the coveted(for this genre) PG-13 rating. And the visual bits are executed by the film’s top-notch art directors and production designers. The “RC” NYC is a place of clean streets with adorable lil’ shops for cupcakes, kids books, and bridal gowns (as opposed to the grimy 99 cent stores, bodegas, and check cashing places in the opening), subway stops adorned with potted bouquets, and pristine pedestrians wearing warm pastels and flowery prints. And, of course, no traffic jams (there’s never a car anywhere near Blake’s limo as he zips over the bridge). On the other hand, pointing out the ridiculous nature of rom-coms may be the parody equivalent of “shooting fish in a barrell”, making the film’s main premise seem “stretched” to the breaking, or boring, point. Like last year’s THE HAPPYTIME MURDERS (this new flick is vastly superior, though), we wonder if this might have worked much better as a short subject, or on TV as a comedy special or a bonus-length SNL sketch. It doesn’t help that the direction from Todd Strauss-Schulson is often listless, with lots of “wheel-spinning” (the repeated “morning after” gets tedious fast) between some peppy set pieces (the karaoke number, in particular). The whole enterprise derails in the story’s big finale as they suddenly embrace the cliches they spend the previous hour or so bashing with a Mad magazine-filled sledgehammer (how I wished a person from HR would break up a big office reveal). C’mon ISN’T IT ROMANTIC, you can’t have it both ways, or as those films would show, somebody (a guy named Baxter) has to be left at the altar. Darn, this one had a premise with some promise.

BAYWATCH – Review

BAYWATCH begins so promisingly! Dwayne Johnson as Mitch Buchannon, chief lifeguard of Baywatch, dives into treacherous waters to rescue a drowning parasailer. He then rises from the water grinning ear-to-ear as dolphins leap in the background and the movie’s title, sculpted in stone, rises from the ocean. This opening sets a perfectly silly tone but one that the film can’t maintain as things slowly go downhill from there. Don’t’ get me wrong –  BAYWATCH is good, and I’ll be seeing it again opening weekend, but it’s a far cry from the masterpiece I think we were all expecting. Time to silence that Oscar buzz.

The elements are here for epic summer indulgence – vulgar comedy, explosive action, a dream cast, a vamping Bollywood superstar, cameos from the TV show’s original stars, and a sea of fine bikinied bottoms. So how do they screw up the big-screen BAYWATCH reboot? Much of the problem is with the film’s length and its tone, which is all over the map. It’s never sure if it wants to be a self-aware satire a la 21 JUMP STREET or a conventional action film. Sometimes it seems like the filmmakers just dusted off an old Baywatch TV script and filmed it with a straight face, while other times they’re ridiculing the show with winking postmodernism. One problem is that BAYWATCH doesn’t offer a vision of its source material that will appeal to either those who hold the show dear or younger moviegoers who may not realize this is an adaptation in the first place.

When things stay on the beach, which it does for about the first 40 minutes, BAYWATCH is a lot of fun. There are tryouts for Mitch’s elite Emerald Bay lifeguard team where the new recruits (and cast) are introduced. There’s Ronnie (Jon Bass), the chubby nerd with the hots for always-running-in-slow-motion blonde CJ (Kelly Rohrbach). There are brunettes Summer (Alexandra Daddario) and Stephanie (Ilfenesh Hadera) and there’s Matt Brody (Zac Efron),  a disgraced Olympic swimmer who’s forced on the crew as a publicity stunt, something Mitch is not too happy about (his name-calling  of pretty-boy Matt – “New Kid on the Block” “One Direction”, even “High School Musical” –  is one running gag that works). Director Seth Gordon fills the frame with gorgeous people and luscious scenery in these early scenes, but soon a generic crime plot kicks in involving murders and drugs and cover-ups and the whole enterprise starts to go south.  The team is soon trying to stop a drug-running villainess (Priyanka Chopra ) who has some vague plan to buy the surrounding community in hopes of establish a massive crime operation. This leads to a series of pointless, loud action scenes at nightclubs, aboard yachts, and in a morgue that stretch the film to almost two hours. I just kept wishing they’d get back to the beach.

There are a lot of raunchy, gross-out scenes that earn BAYWATCH its R rating (though surprisingly no nudity – unless you count one dead man’s schlong). There’s an encounter with dripping bodily fluid at that morgue and Ronnie getting his dong stuck between the wooden slats of a chair, but for a movie ostensibly about beach boobs, there are far more jokes about penises than breasts. Much of this is funny (much is not), and the cast is clearly having a good time, but so many scenes drag on and on (that’s what the ‘deleted scenes’ feature on the Blu-ray is for). The screenplay feels a few drafts away from something that might have worked. BAYWATCH is uneven in that way, veering from scathing humor to patience-trying nonsense and back again, but it does ultimately wind up just barely on right side of good and bad. I wish more thought would have gone into the cameos from David Hasselhoff and Pam Anderson. The Hoff grunts a couple of lines in one terribly-written scene and an air-brushed Pam is barely there

Any attempt to adapt a television series for the big screen is inherently an effort to wring cash out of a dormant property, leveraging name recognition in the hopes that it will translate into solid box office. Reviving a beloved show without fresh ideas is why we have more films like WILD WILD WEST and CHIPS and fewer like MISSION IMPOSSIBLE which reinvigorated its franchise decades after the show went off the air. BAYWATCH falls somewhere between those extremes.
