Christians love an allegory. First Neo tells the agents he won’t bring Morpheus to them. Then Morpheus says the rules of the matrix can be bent and broken but there are consequences. Remind you of anything? Then those pesky agents are everywhere and always trying to kill people who know the truth. The Oracle knows what’s gonna happen but won’t be involved. The mean guy is named Cipher which almost spells Lucifer. Neo risks his own life by going back into the Matrix to save Morpheus. Neo has to die to defeat the agent and then he comes back to life. And there’s a character is named Trinity. It is way too much to be resisited and it has spawned many a sermon illustration.
