Some people want to be able to watch a movie "for the first time" all over again. Others want to forget a rubbish one. If you could remove just one movie from your memory, which would it be?

There are two ways to view The Matrix 4.

When I first watched it I hated the fuck out of it.

After thinking about it, I realised its genius; it is immune from criticism. The movie is shit on purpose.

Don't think of the movie as a Matrix sequel - because it isn't. Lana didn't want to make this movie (as explicitly stated in the first act), but she also didn't want anyone else to touch it.

So, she permanently and deliberately sabotaged her legacy. There is no ambiguous ending; she executed her baby in the messiest way possible and I respect the fuck out of her for it.

well, to me, reading all this, honestly broke the whole series a bit.

Just consider 4 a parody. The original creator regards 3 as the ending, so you should too.
