Morpheus didn't give him all the facts and rushed him into a decision before giving him the chance to process what little information he was given.
That's not a choice. That's a con-job.
Ah right right, the movie would have flowed better if he was given a course on existentialism and a detailed recount of life on the outside.
How about a quick. "Hey. Just so you know, we live in sewers and eat gruel. Now make your choice."
the matrix reboot we should have gotten, instead of whatever the fuck that 4th movie was.
nio takes the blue pill, credits roll
That would be a better movie if the ending showed him choosing, but didn't tell us which he chose. Leave it heavily implicit, not to get people debating but to put the choice onto the viewer, connect that dot to how we choose to live our lives.
but nio taking the blue bill then credits roll, isnt a very engaging movie
