S.T. Vanairsdale notes in MOVIELINE that the rare appearance of Andy and Lana Wachowskis in Side by Side make it worth seeing. Chris Kenneally provides background information to the author that The Wachowskis agreed to be interviewed for the film as a result of their close relationship with Keanu Reeves. They discussed the advancement of digital filmmaking and its influence on their films, Matrix and Speed Racer. The siblings offered up the following:
