The Animatrix is a great collection of short anime movies from a few of the best anime directors that ever existed. I especially liked The Second Renaissance and The Final Flight of the Osiris.

The Wachowski brothers (brother and sister these days) got a lot of their inspiration from anime's like for instance the movie Ghost in the Shell. The fact that they agreed to produce and write some of the scripts was an homage to anime's they saw over the years before The Matrix.

Easily the best Matrix thing I’ve seen yet. The visuals, minus the last two shorts, outpace anything in the live action ones, and it’s more interesting and thought provoking in slices than the live action ones are in hours.

The animated prequel anthology to The Matrix Reloaded, The Animatrix, is a jumbled mess that doesn’t add much to the mythology of the series. Consisting of 9 shorts, different aspects of the Matrix are explored. But for the most part the stories are just inferior versions of what was already done in the first Matrix film. Some of the animation styles are interesting, but they also make for a disparate vision of the Matrix universe. Unfortunately, The Animatrix fails to give any real insight or depth to the series, and instead just creates more confusion and ambiguity.

Most of these short films are great at introducing you to the depths of the Matrix universe. Various styles of animation also let us know how rich the range of this genre is.

A Chilling insight as to how the world may handle machines, and how machines may handle the world. The narrator reminds me a lot of SHODAN from System Shock, which I'm not sure if the similarity was intentional, but it definitely heightened my interest in the movie

Well, what should I say? Some of the animated short stories from the Matrix universe are interesting and good but others are not. For me this was an even bigger disappointment compared to the original matrix movie than were the true sequels Matrix 2 & 3 (however, this might also be because I do not like short stories and the comic-style Animatrix uses).

All short films in this collection are beautifully animated. The Second Renaissance is my personal favorite and serves as an origin story to the first Matrix movie.

These are original stories, good food for thought.
