Anthology of nine short Japanese animation films tied in to the 1999 blockbuster "
The Matrix
" Andy and Larry Wakowski, and its sequels.

"Final Flight of the Osiris", the crew of the hovercraft Osiris attempt to warn their city of an imminent attack. "The Second Renaissance, Parts 1 and 2", the story behind the war between human and the machines, how mankind scorched the sky, and the creation of the Matrix. "Kid's Story", a teenager is contacted by Neo, and manages to escape the Matrix. "Program", two warriors’ battle in a samurai training simulation when one decides to betray his crewmates and re-enter the Matrix. "World Record", a champion sprinter manages to break free of the Matrix by sheer physical effort during a record attempt. "Beyond", a young girl searching for her cat discovers a haunted house caused by a glitch in the matrix system. "A Detective Story", private investigator Ash tracks a hacker named Trinity through the looking glass. "Matriculated", a group of humans capture a machine scout and insert it into a 'human matrix' during the war between mankind and machines.

The Animatrix is a well-done combination film. It is a piece of art, combined story line on “The matrix” films and the explanation of what the matrix is. After you watch it you may think whether or not the matrix is really existed, or even you may think about the trend of the future.

It is a must-watch film before you ‘enter’ the matrix…
