The acting is brilliant in these films, all the characters are strong and the actors play them perfectly. Keanu shaved his head, vomited and had sex scenes. Fishburne, is shot at, beaten up, happy, sad and dumfounded. Everything is done perfectly.
This is the 3 DVD Matrix box set. This means you get The Matrix, The Matrix Reloaded and The Matrix Revolutions.

The Matrix Neo is a guy who never really fitted in, he hadn't many friends and he spent too much tome typing away on his computer so when some one hacks into his computer and tells him he does not belong he willingly believes and accepts that life as we now it, is a lie. We are all in fact plugged into the Matrix, a computer program designed to tell our brains that we are living the live we chose to live when we are actually plugged into a huge machine designed to feed the aliens that have taken over our planet. Neo brakes free from this Matrix and joins a Gang of revolutionaries lead by Morpheus, who are trying to free people from the Matrix and claim back the planet. Morpheus, neo and the gang are pursued by agent smith, an alien disguised as a human, who desperately wants to kill them.

The Matrix Reloaded Neo, Morpheus and the gang are back and ready to take on more Agents in this second chapter. This is the Best of the 3 in my mind as we see more about the Humans which are surviving on earth and the home the have made underground in Zion. This time we see Neo is becoming stronger and more of a leader, which is good because the agents pursuing them are stronger too, they have been cloned and upgraded to give them an advantage over the human race. But Neo and the gang have ore allies this time, the humans have there spaceships and are armed and ready to fight and win back their planet. The war is on. Running time 133 mins Certified 15 More info www.thematrix.com
The Matrix Revolutions The war is well underway now. And hopes are on Neo to find out the truth behind The Matrix and help the Humans win the war. The special effects have always been great In The Matrix but they are especially good in Revolutions, with fight scenes, clones, jumping and explosions, The Matrix is a visual master piece. Neo goes to hell and back to help win the war but will he win? Will the human race ever be restored or is all lost to the Aliens? To any one who hasn't seen it I think the ending is diapointing, they seemd to have coped out of giving a proper explanation and just settled for letting a old man jabber on for 10 mins about nothing. For people who have seen it you'll know what I mean. However that is just my opinion and many people will love the ending I'm sure.

Extras Disappointing. The extras are minimal just film-ographys and trailers but hey you can buy the game on play station if you wanted to.
All in all good films, good set, would fit in any dvd collection. But don't let the little ones see it some of the images of the aliens in reloaded can be a little scarey (maybe not just for the little ones)

Advantages: All 3 films in one, great fight scenes, gripping story. Disadvantages: none..
...one. I first saw the matrix when i was about 10 and it just got hooked on it from that point.
The first film blows you away with the special effects and the great fight sequences. Following Neo on his path as he tries to find out if he is truley the one. The "bullet time" scenes are just the best. The second following Neo as he must recover the Key Maker and then make his way to the source in order to save Zion from being destoryed. The special ... ...blowing fight scene. The third and final part of the trilogy follows Neo on his way to the machine city " Zero One". It also follow Morpheus and Niobe on there way to save the dock at Zion. The fight scene at the end is incredible. You really are gripped into the film and its just so good.
This box set is a must have! Must have it, these films have broken into a whole new way of thinking.
Excellent! ...

...a collection of 3 of the greatest films of all time. They say all great things come in 3 and this is true with the Matrix. You get the chance the story of Neo, as he starts as a nobody in a rubbush job getting pushed around by his boss to the most powerful man in the matrix. The matrix has a great cast which make the film amazing, with fantastic special effects and a great director. The matrix competes with the likes of The Godfather and Lord of ...

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 ...

Advantages: Good picture quality, great action and camera effects Disadvantages: Too violent, may lead to a sense of insecurity
The DVD contains all the Matrices. The picture quality is quite crisp.
The movie collection in the box is ultimate.
This presents you with an opportunity to view the complete matrix series.
If you are an action movie and special effect lover then this collection is a must for you.
The first movie on DVD is The Matrix, tells how the battle between human and machines actually begin . The movie is about a group of hackers that have taken the responsibility ... ...who is said to be the chosen one , and can save humans.
The second and the third series are the sequence of battle. In the third and final part Neo is able to sense the powers he posses , and uses these powers to effects.
The most attractive thing in the Movie are the camera tricks. These Camera tricks make the movie even more thrilling. The concept and story used are equally attractive.
On the down side movie tend be over violent and stress is ...

inside you will all 3 of the matrix trilogy movies
The Matrix
The MatrixReloaded

Worth the money i can tell you.

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 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.
