Three features. With THE MATRIX, the Wachowskis have established themselves as innovative filmmakers who push the boundaries of live-action films. Like the groundbreaking STAR...
more...WARS, THE MATRIX (also the first film of a trilogy) showcases a unique visual style, one the Wachowskis achieved through an array of techniques and digital effects, some never before seen in mainstream Hollywood films. Although computer morphing technology had been used before in films such as THE ABYSS and TERMINATOR 2, the Wachowskis were the first to use 'bullet time,' a time-bending digital effect that utilises both computer-generated imagery and still photography. The film itself is a complex story that aspires to mythology, focusing on a computer hacker named Neo (Keanu Reeves) who searches for the truth behind the mysterious force known as the Matrix. He finds his answer with a group of strangers led by the charismatic Morpheus (Laurence Fishburne). What they encounter in confronting that truth makes for a lightning-paced, eye-popping thrill ride of a movie. Packed with stunning fight scenes (choreographed by accomplished Hong Kong director Yuen Wo-Ping), astonishing visual effects, quotable lines, and a terrific supporting cast (led by Carrie-Anne Moss, in her first major Hollywood film), THE MATRIX is a bold triumph that raises the bar for all science fiction films. Also includes THE MATRIX RELOADED and MATRIX REVOLUTIONS.

The matrix
Review of The Matrix/Matrix Reloaded/Matrix Revolutions (Box Set) by tinac37

Advantages: great acting, great soundtrack
Disadvantages: 3 is two to many

I have to admit The Matrix is not really my kind of film, this was a present I bought for my hubby last year and he loves it. I paid £29.99 from play.com and it was worth every penny. You can get it much cheaper on ebay now but hey it's a year on. I'm not a big sci fi fan but I don't mind The Matrix, I like the sound track, I like Laurence Fishburne, and I like agent Smith, but for me the story is a little far fetched. Any way, enough of my ... Read review

Superb first film, not so sure about the rest
Review of The Matrix/Matrix Reloaded/Matrix Revolutions (Box Set) by beanp-271

Advantages: Special effects and acting
Disadvantages: Making 2 sequels

Right, the matrix is one of the best films i have ever watched. It has some excellent acting from all the big names, and all the special effects are awesome. It has a brilliant storyline in the first film and Keanu Reeves plays Neo really well. This is definetely a must see film, but now we come to the Matrix Reloaded, and the final one, Matrix Revoltuions. I didn\'t really get what was happening in these films, the story changed and you get lost ... Read review

Maybe they should have stuck at one
Review of The Matrix/Matrix Reloaded/Matrix Revolutions (Box Set) by l_farrington

Advantages: All together in a value for money package
Disadvantages: Reloaded and Revolutions

...DVD sale. I had seen The Matrix when it 1st came out and was blown away by the special effects. As I was and still am going the through a Hugo Weaving (Agent Smith), phase I could not resist. I do not intend to go through the whole plot as we all know what happens by now. Matrix, fantastic film. Goes down with Reloaded and hits rock bottom with Revolutions. I do not regret buying this as it worked out as cheap as buying The Matrix alone. Reloaded ... Read review

Matrix is brill
Review of The Matrix/Matrix Reloaded/Matrix Revolutions (Box Set) by catherine05

Advantages: All 3 films in one
Disadvantages: Probably doesnt look good

I loved the first film when it came out. Although some of it was hard to follow, it was an absolutely excellent film. To think that we are all living a lie, was an interesting concept to try and understand. Then when the next two films came out i thought they were absolutely brilliant, they didn't take the story too far or overdo the story at all, it was all very good and compelling to watch. The performances by Keanu Reeves, Lawrence Fishbourne ... Read review
