The Matrix Reloaded (2003)
New Challenger for Greatest Science Fiction Concept of All-time
I am a major film fanatic and believe that the Matrix was one of the best films in recent years. This led me to be both extremely excited as well as a little worried as the opening of Matrix Reloaded approached. Fortunately, I worried for nothing. Matrix Reloaded has not only outdone the original - I believe it is competition for the Star Wars franchise as the greatest Science Fiction concept of all-time. My experience in seeing this film in a packed theatre on opening day now rivals my first screenings of Star Wars: Phantom Menace and Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring. I highly recommend this film for anyone interested in Science Fiction, philosophy, technology, or film in general. It is without any doubt that the Matrix trilogy will be looked upon by film historians as one of the most influencial and important Science Fiction concepts of the 21st century.
The Animatrix: Final Flight of the Osiris (2003)
A brilliant further glimpse into the Matrix universe
The Final Flight of the Osiris is our first chance to see one of the Animatrix shorts we first heard about on the "Matrix Revisited" dvd - and boy did it deliver! Directed by the Animation Director for "Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within", Final Flight delves further into the Matrix universe and manages in its 9 short minutes to not only create a greater anticipation for the upcoming Matrix Sequels, but convey a well written and action-packed story that the film it opened in front of, Dreamcatcher (2003), couldn't do in its 136 minutes. I greatly look forward to the other seven Animatrix shorts and thank the Wachowski brothers once again for bringing us the most important piece of science fiction since Star Wars.
