Unlike a lot of live DVDs, this is a breath of fresh air in that it actually focuses on the frontman and the band itself, rather than crowd shots and pretty lights. It not just covers the Glastonbury gig, but several others, to include all the tracks from their 'Absolution' album, so if you find your favourite song missing on the track list, no doubt it's in the special features. Couple of sneaky easter eggs too.
Extras
1. "Fury" - (Live at Wiltern Theater, Los Angeles)

Its Out Of This World Review ofThe Matrix - The Ultimate Matrix Collection (LimitedEdition) (+Figurine/Book)by

...This ten-disc DVD Collection has the entire Matrix trilogy, the Animatrix and over 35 hours of have-to-watch extras. The Matrix Trilogy is one of the best, if not the best trilogy, and now it is in a superb collectors edition which is compulsery to buy for its outstandingly low price. the
Wachowski brothers have made three films that have grossed 1.6 billion dollars in world-wide box office receipts, the retail of the DVDs and countless other merchandise. There is a continious improvement as you watch each film which just gets you more excited for the last of the trilogy which holds the war between man and machine.
If this isnt enough for you than you can begin to watch the DVD's of extras, and be sure to have a day and a half of work to do so. Or you could just watch another matrix film, that not many have seen, The Animatrix, which...
