Resurrections is an excellent protest movie, in the punk vein.
It was protesting exactly the type of exploitation that Warner brothers did with the matrix.
The film is akin to a new lassie film. Only the film ends with lassie being staked out in the sun and flayed alive by a teenage sociopath, whimpering the entire time. It's a massive fuck you, intended to kill the franchise. There was just enough plausible deniability to get away, and avoid being sued for it.
