Outstanding at best, Moderately watchable at worst. (DVD Review)

Date of Review:  Jul 11, 2003
The Bottom Line: Dark and rather inconsistent, the animation and imagination involved still makes this worth-while viewing.
Review: Movie:

Directors Larry and Andy Wachowski have said in their few interviews that they are big fans of Japanese animation (or, "Anime"). Watching "The Matrix", one can sense the influences from Anime style. Given the fact that the story of...

Just When You Thought The Wachowski Brothers Could Stoop No Lower

Date of Review:  Jun 14, 2003
The Bottom Line: The Wachowski brothers may have created The Matrix series, but they're slowly bringing it to its grave. The Animatrix is just an add on to its death.
Review: With the release of The Matrix: Reloaded, it seems the Wachowski brothers are going crazy over more and more things to release with the word Matrix on it. They released the game, which turned out to be a little enjoyable, but not revolutionary, like...

The Infinite Matrix

Date of Review:  Jun 17, 2003
The Bottom Line: The Bottom Line wishes it had never taken the red pill.
Review: What is it about that darn Matrix, anyway? Despite the philosophical bombast and gleeful incomprehensibility of "Matrix Reloaded," this summer's disappointing sequel to the reality-bending special-effects extravaganza that was "The Matrix," I'm...

It's time to plug in to The Animatrix

Date of Review:  Jun 17, 2003
The Bottom Line: The disc seems short until you compare it to other animated offerings. Not every segment will apply to every viewer, but almost everyone will find something cool in The Animatrix
Review: Despite anime's long history in America, there are many folks who still think of any animated offering as kids' stuff. Tying in to The Matrix: Reloaded, The Animatrix (89 minutes, unrated, Warner Home Video) hopes to change that.

When Andy...

The Animatrix - Avoid it if you're feeling depressed.

Date of Review:  Jun 18, 2003
The Bottom Line: Contains a lot of graphic violence, and could make your day worse if you're already feeling down.
Review: I enjoyed the Matrix and its sequel, and so I figured I'd kick back, relax, and enjoy the Animatrix one evening after work. The Animatrix did an end run around my expectations, and I found myself feeling sad and depressed after the viewing. Here's...

the Animatrix is a series of fantastic visual stories.

Date of Review:  Aug 5, 2003
The Bottom Line: The Animatrix offers a fascinating view into the world of The Matrix outside of the films. It's been given a good but unspectacular disk.
Review: When I first heard the news of an animated series based on the world of The Matrix I had a very sceptical reaction. Afterall some of the worst kids shows I've seen have been based on some of the most enjoyable Hollywood blockbusters. However the...

Man created Machine in his image, and for a time, it was good.

Date of Review:  Dec 8, 2005
The Bottom Line: Good for people who want to see more of the matrix universe from a different point of view than the films.
Review: The animatrix is an impressive collection of 9 short stories from the matrix universe, filling in some of the gaps between the original Matrix and the Matrix: Reloaded.

All of the stories have very different animation styles and narratives...

The Well-Rounded Matrix World

Date of Review:  May 23, 2003
The Bottom Line: Even to those unfamiliar with the 'anime' style, the Animatrix wins viewers over with its top-notch animation and storytelling. A must-buy unless you're allergic to the Matrix.
Review: I'll admit it, the worst part about this series of shorts is its...

...title. I mean, 'The Animatrix' has to be one of the worst puns ever (the combination of 'anime', commonly pronounced as 'an-nee-meh' and 'matrix'). It sounds like it...

Nine Short Films About The Matrix

Date of Review:  Feb 2, 2006
The Bottom Line: The Matrix Animated Film festival.
Review: OK, it's "ANImated MATRIX", get it? Pretty weak title, I'll admit. Kind of like they weren't able to think of anything else and they were coming up on deadline. But, no matter, I suppose...

Anyway... First, back in 1999, there was "The...

The "Matrix" universe is made clear and shown in intriguing variety.

Date of Review:  Jun 14, 2003
The Bottom Line: This is an intelligent, clever, visually stunning addition to the "Matrix" complex of films. The variety of stories and visual styles gives it even greater impact.
Review: "Animatrix" is a collection of 9 short animated films related to "Matrix" and its sequels. Brief notes on each follow:

"Final Flight of the Osiris" concerns a human battleship and its last desperate effort to warn Zion (the last human...
