Watch it if you're in the mood for deep thoughts a...2022-02-0133 minJoshua and Phoebe Yell About Movies!You Either Want to See the Matrix Resurrections or You Don’tWe will likely never be able to sway you as to whether or not to watch the Matrix Resurrections but we had a lot of fun watching it and talking about it.
