    Taking characters and the premise from the groundbreaking science fiction film 'The Matrix', this ambitious project compiles nine short films directed by animation specialists from Japan, Korea, and America. The action is rapidly paced and Combining all different styles of animation from CGI to anime to more traditional animation, the program's unique and varied look is even more stunning than its predecessor. A sampling of the talent includes 'Matrix' creators Larry and Andy Wachowski, Yoshiaki Kawajiri (Ninja Scroll), Peter Chung (Aeon Flux) and Shinchiro Watanabe (Cowboy Bebop).

     A must for Matrix fans - A Great bundle of animated shorts

    Loved the Matrix triology. You must see this to expand your Matrix universe.

    You get a mixture of CGI, Magna and traditional 2D animated shorts.

    The final flight of the Osiris is the setup for the second Matrix Movie and shows how the Humans living in the 'desert of the real' find out that the machines are digging to Zion. The CGI is amazing as the 2 ship mates have a Kitana Sword battle in the Matrix'd DOJO.

    You get a magna backlog of how the humans were before the machines took over and to the point where the Matriz was first made. Fascinating and gruesome. It shows how the sky turned black and how the machines took control.

    Another Short explains why 'the kid' who features in the Matrix Reloaded and Revolutions came to be so fond of Neo and how he was unplugged from the Matrix.

    The other shorts are based on the Matrix universe and the best is probably the world record. As it is so action filled and spectacular.

    A must for your Matrix Collection
