Taking the red pill 20 years later.

For the second film in their “9 From ‘99” series, Adam and Josh reconsider the Wachowski Sisters’ seminal sci-fi film, which, while a popular and critical success in its release year, has only grown in estimation both as a film and as a way of thinking and talking about reality. Plus: Christopher Nolan, Todd Haynes, Rian Johnson and Lars von Trier make the Top 5 Slow-Motion Scenes (Since “The Matrix”); Best of ‘99 poll results; and Adam and Josh announce the matchups for the play-in round of Filmspotting Madness 2019: Best of the 2000s.
