Complete Matrix Trilogy

Product Details

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.
