The Matrix series is a cyberpunk saga about Neo, a hacker who discovers that the world is a simulated reality controlled by machines. In the first film, Neo joins a rebellion to free humanity from this digital prison and embraces his role as "The One" to fight the machines. The sequels, The Matrix Reloaded and The Matrix Revolutions, explore Neo’s growing powers and his quest to stop a machine invasion threatening the human city of Zion, culminating in a final battle with the rogue Agent Smith. The Matrix Resurrections revisits Neo years later, once again trapped in a new version of the Matrix, as he reclaims his identity to fight a new threat. The series blends action, philosophy, and groundbreaking visual effects to explore themes of reality, free will, and control.
