Jonathan Pageau recently came out with a video symbolism review of The Matrix. I found some of his commentary thought provoking, especially when interpreting the film through the lens of modern politics, almost a full 20 years after the film was published. Some criticism he had of the movie were in how it depicted all order as tyrannical and cold-logical, and the rebel group as individualistic, intuitive, and liberated. One of Pageau's take-home messages were that the political crusade against all standards and norms in civilization is the ultimate end-game of that type of highly skewed worldview, and the drive to make a world "without rules, without borders, where anything is possible".
