20 Years ago the most polarizing matrix sequel was ahead of its time

"...None of this would have worked if the Wachowskis weren’t so committed to featuring diversity on the most subliminal level. The Matrix saga was revolutionary on the premise of its cast alone in the ‘00s, and it continues to inform aspects of the franchise’s best hidden messages. The Matrix was a Trojan Horse, both in its approach to modern myth and its use of unorthodox heroes in a traditionally-white, traditionally-male genre. Revolutions is still a sore spot among fans, but it does have its merits — and its deconstruction of the white savior narrative is just one of the things that keeps it relevant today."
