Review of The Animatrix (2003) by Andy G — 24 Jul 2014
Just not really my cup of tea. I think my biggest problem with it is that for the most part, it doesn't really add much, if anything, to the series. While it's interesting to see the Matrix's backstory in animated form, and get a little more information on the Osiris as briefly hinted at in the movie, the rest of it is mostly uninteresting, and I really don't like a lot of the animation styles used aside from a couple of the films. Final Flight of the Osiris is easily the best, followed by Second Renaissance. Program had a cool idea, but it basically was just copying a major plot from the first movie, with a minor change. The rest of it imo was boring and uninteresting. Too bad, because there was definitely some potential to tell some cool stories here. I think Gotham Knight took this same idea and executed it much better IIRC.
45%.
