Product Description

From Amazon.com

The Matrix Revisited provides a wealth of Matrix arcana, delivered by the 1999 blockbuster's principal cast and crew. The main course in this 163-minute feast is a two-hour documentary covering virtually every aspect of production, with teasing glimpses of fight training on the not-yet-released Matrix sequels. Of greater interest is the sheer depth of filmmaking coverage, with intelligent and amusing anecdotes and insights from all the major players (including graphic artist Geof Darrow, given overdue credit for his outstanding conceptual designs). Fight choreographer Yuen Woo-ping is also a fascinating subject, and his early action-blocking videos are included for comparative study. Another segment allows obsessive fans to express their fanatical zeal for all things Matrix, and a look at the in-production Matrix anime project gives them another source of inspiration. While you're pondering which pill to take (red or blue?), The Matrix Revisited should help you decide. --Jeff Shannon

4.0 out of 5 stars Cool Indeed (4 1/2 stars), April 3 2003
This review is from: The Matrix: Revisited (Widescreen/Full Screen) (DVD)
The year is actually closer to 2199, and it seems Thomas, like most people, is a victim of The Matrix, a massive artificial intelligence system that has tapped into people's minds and created the illusion of a real world, while using their brains and bodies for energy, tossing them away like spent batteries when they're through. Morpheus, however, is convinced Neo is "The One" who can crack open The Matrix and bring his people to both physical and psychological freedom.

"What is The Matrix?" In the hands of writer-directors Andy Wachowski and Larry Wachowski, The Matrix (1999) proved to be an exhilarating comic book/Hong Kong/sci-fi treatise on the nature of reality for the Keanu Reeves crowd. With Sydney, Australia standing in for an ominously green-tinged Any City, the initiation of Reeves' ace hacker Neo into the Real World by Laurence Fishburne's super-cool Morpheus and Carrie-Anne Moss' patent leather-clad cyber babe Trinity sets off the ultimate conflict between man and malevolent machine.

Regardless of that conflict's philosophical bent, the real attraction became The Matrix's trailblazing special effects and bravura set pieces, including air-borne kung-fu, time-bending, bullet-dodging shootouts, and an ultra-stylized, slow-motion
lobby fusillade. A stunning, breathtaking slice of sci fi cool and a now benchmark movie, The Matrix has spawned two sequals and will continue to provoke debate and inspire countless imitations long after the follow-ups arrive in theatres.

This review is from: The Matrix: Revisited (Widescreen/Full Screen) (DVD)

(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Matrix: Revisited (Widescreen/Full Screen) (DVD)
A much needed explaination disc full of information that was released after the 1999 movie. Great on it's own although really the extra disc that should have been made part of a two disc set.
