The Matrix Trilogy (3 Discs)

I have to say of all sci-fi movies out there, The Matrix Trilogy is definitely one of my favourties.

The first Matrix film is without a doubt a very entertaining sci-fi flick with some great kung-fu action sequences, and features some good supporting performances from Hugo Weaving as the deadly Smith, and Joe Pantoliano as Cypher. The second film Matrix Reloaded isn't in the same league but in a way it feels better paced, despite the awful Zion rave sequence, it has a lot going for it with some great action scenes and a rather bizzare climax. The third film Martix Revolutions also has alot going for it, with the action kicking off straight away, and the big battle scenes proving to be very intense and exciting to watch, even though the ending is pretty confusing it definitely gives you something to think about!

The only small snag I have with the trilogy is that the main characters, Neo, Trinity and Morpheous are all rather serious and pretentious but it also features a world interesting and amusing supporting characters that make up for that. On the quality front, the DVD transfers and sound for all 3 films are superb and it really highlights the quality of DVD, next to High-Def, DVD has still got alot going for it.

So for 8 pounds The Matrix Trilogy is an absolute bargain. Buy it!

First of all, I would like to just have a moment to ponder on all of the people that think the 2nd and 3rd Matrix movies are poor... Is it simply because you loved the first one so much, and the fact it might not have a Brady Bunch ending sway you into denial that they are infact, some of the best put together films of all time?

Maybe.

Either way, I won't ruin any of the story for anyone, but it's a pretty emotional ride in my opinion.

I am not in the mood to write a 3000 word essay, so I shalln't list another good feature of this movie, so I figure I'll mention the only poor thing I can think about in the whole 6 hours (or there abouts) of viewing time.

In the Matrix Reloaded, when Neo participates in the first big fight scene in Reloaded, the fight is great, and the moves are pretty good, but some of the sound effects just wake you up from the experience making you see the errors in camera angles when using CGI (the camera gets too close IMO) and it ends up… more »

But seriously, that's the only bad thing I can draw from this.

I think it's perfect, and I call myself a perfectionist.
