4/10
I'm disappointed this got the highest rating...

In my opinion, this was an okay short. It was nothing compared to my favorite (Detective Story), and the sole purpose of this episode was to simply be eye candy.

Yes, eye candy. From the fight/striptease at the beginning to the closing credits, the short is VERY visually attractive, but the acting is sub-par and the story is simply a typical Matrix action scene minus the plot. Yes, I understand it is the story of the Osiris discovering the Machine invasion heading for Zion, but the short itself is simply...kind of dull, honestly.

If you like computer generated asian girls getting naked with katanas and some shady mention of a backstory setting up the movies, this is for you. If you like a neat short story with neat little inner tidbits that stands alone without the movies, watch Detective Story.
