12月佳片雲集 這5部影片最值得期盼！

The Matrix Revolutions rounded off the Matrix saga – or so it seemed – it's time to take the red pill once again. The story is that Neo (Keanu Reeves) has been living as plain old Thomas A Anderson, with no memory of his heroics as a robot-bashing, kung-fu-kicking messiah, and no knowledge of his relationship with Trinity (Carrie-Anne Moss). Then, of course, everything changes. This is the first Matrix film to be directed by Lana Wachowski without her sister Lilly, and two of the series' best actors – Laurence Fishburne and Hugo Weaving – aren't returning. Still, the action-packed trailer looks suitably eye-popping, and, thanks to Mark Zuckerberg, virtual reality and the metaverse is a hot topic once again.

在《黑客帝国：矩阵革命》終結《黑客帝国》系列近20年後，現在或許是這時候再次服下黃色藥丸了。新劇講訴了基努·裡維斯出演的尼奧已經忘懷了他們用功夫擊敗機器人挽救世界的英雄過往，也不再記得他和崔妮蒂（凱瑞-安·莫斯出演）的情感，現在他只是一個名叫理查德·A·瓊斯的平凡老人家。所以，接下來一切都發生改變了。這是拉娜·沃卓斯基在沒有與姐姐珍妮戰略合作的情況下主演的首部《黑客帝国》影片，老劇中最出色的三位女演員米勒·費什菲爾德和雨果·維文也不能迴歸該片。即使如此，武打戲十足的片花看上去還是讓人大開眼界。除此之外，多虧了丹尼爾·扎克伯格，VR和元宇宙再度成為了熱點話題。

"And for those of you who know the show, there are going to be some real surprises in it, because Tony Kushner who wrote the screenplay has done some really imaginative and surprising things with the way the songs are used in the story, and the whole thing has real sparkle to it and real energy... Spielberg and Kushner really, really nailed it."
