Profile of The Animatrix

The Animatrix can be described as stylized, exciting, and bleak. The plot revolves around man versus machine, A.I., and a future dystopia. The main genres are foreign, action, and animation. In terms of style, The Animatrix is postmodernist, anime, and includes a voice over. In approach, it is fantastical and serious. It is inspired by a film. The Animatrix has received attention for being critically acclaimed. It is well suited for teens and a boys' night. Note that it involves violent content.

Summary of The Animatrix

ANIMATRIX: Taking the characters and premise from the groundbreaking science-fiction film THE MATRIX, this ambitious project compiles nine short films directed by animation specialists from Japan, Korea, and America. The action is rapid-paced, and combines different styles of animation from CGI to anime to more traditional animation, producing a unique and varied look even more stunning than its predecessor. A sampling of the talent includes MATRIX creators Larry and Andy Wachowski, Yoshiaki Kawajiri (NINJA SCROLL), Peter Chung (AEON FLUX), and Shinchiro Watanabe (COWBOY BEBOP).

Better than Matrix.
In many ways, because this is animation, becomes free from any restrictions film movies may have. Although special effect has made movies stretch beyond imagination, it is thru animation, true brilliance of the story shines. And boy, the story...
Excellent animation and stories. After being very dissapointed with the cheap space opera "Matrix Reloaded," it was nice to see some eye-opening stories and amazing visuals. If you're not a Matrix fan, but like animation, you will probably enjoy...
