All Regions blu-ray release, playable on all worldwide blu-ray players.The first film of The Matrix trilogy established the Wachowski brothers as innovative filmmakers who push the boundaries of live-action films. Like the groundbreaking Star Wars, The Matrix 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 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 sequel The Matrix Reloaded showcased that visual style to further effect, with The Matrix Revolutions completing the trilogy.

"I Took the Red Pill"
It's been a few years now that "The Matrix" came out..still mystifies me. ARE we in the "Matrix"?? Sometimes I want OUT too! LOL! Here is something you will be suprised at...I was. I bought a 120hz tv (3D) and something suprising was goin on. The speed of the higher hertz slowed down the film to what one would call "Real Time". This "Real Time" makes all movies seem like you are 'on the Set' experiancing the movie as it's 'being filmed. Like a fifties teleplay.You actually start noticing things that are "Movie Fakery". It is after all Pretend..I know this. Its takes away from being "In the Movie" to Being on a set. You DO notice also that instead of characters portrayed actors...you find you are noticing its Actors portraying characters. It's Very strange. I get more into the Actors skill than the "Movie Magic". Next time you are at your local tv store check out any movie at 120hz.The Matrix Trilogy" itself...AWESOME!MovieMan

Reminiscent of todays reality
These were dvd upgrades to my vhs copies so I know they are great movies. Unfortunately Zoverstocks sent me a copy for use in the UK only and these copies will end up in the garbage since the postage for receiving and returning them will negate the refund. Even though they say to "check the region before ordering", they don't tell you what region it is. The movies themselves are reminiscent of what is happening in the world today - the reality we are shown is not the real reality. When your a mushroom being kept in the dark and fed manure (lies and distorted facts), you won't know any better unless you do your research. Think of the agents as the illuminati.

Excellent Trilogy! A-ONE!
This is the One of the Best Science Friction that I ever Watched! This Picture Quality (Resolution: 1080p) and Sound Quality (English: Dolby TrueHD 5.1, English: Dolby Digital 5.1, French: Dolby Digital 5.1, Italian: Dolby Digital 5.1) are marvelous! Behind the story of the Films are A-One!The Matrix is a science fiction action media franchise created by Andy and Larry Wachowski and distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures. The series began with the feature film The Matrix (1999), and continued with two sequels, The Matrix Reloaded (2003) and The Matrix Revolutions (2003). The characters and settings of the films are further explored in other media set in the same fictional universe, including animation, comics, and video games.

A must-buy for ALL THE BONUS FEATURES
This is a region-free Bluray (this world can do more of those), so it will play in any country.With that out of the way, unfortunately the next Bluray (2018) that was produced from the 4K scan of the film, and paired with the 4K release, is simply better. This (2008) release is amateurish in comparison, which resulted from the creators not directly overseeing the colour grading. Yes, this release is inferior, so buy the 2018 one.BUT GET THIS ONE ALSO!Why, if the picture is worse? Because the bonus features selection is legendary.First of all, you get the making of for every part of the trilogy, and I think there is more behind the scenes material here than anywhere else. Second, you get the music video for Sleeping Awake, one of the credits songs for Reloaded, and a song written specifically for the movie. I don't think it was ever available on the DVD releases, and it's missing on the newer Blurays. You also get the music video for Rock Is Dead by Marlyn Manson. Third, you get all the cutscenes from Enter The Matrix, the only videogame that was actually connected to the movies (events take place during Reloaded). And Fourth, and this one is the most strange, you get a selection of late 90s electronic music. Was this the music creators listened to while writing the trilogy? That is my only guess, since this bonus feature is not explained.I hope I made myself clear: if you want to WATCH the trilogy, but the 2018 release. But if you want A LOT of bonus features, buy the 2018 too.P.S. Matrix 4 was a contractual obligation, it was never planned, never intended, and it's bad on purpose.

Matrix Blu-Ray - The Only Way to Go
I actually have the first of the series but not in Blu-Ray. My husband and I really got into the movie this time, really got into it, and decided to get the whole series. The one we chose may not have all the gimmicks that the other Blu-ray choices had but it definitely had the movies. Wow, after watching my old DVD, we went through the whole series in a weekend - unusual for us to do. Blu-ray is awesome. As usual, Amazon sent it quickly with no problems and at good prices. So many choices, it was hard to pick. We are very happy with the one we chose.

One Of Two Great Trilogies
Most everyone knows The Matrix is landmark cinema. It has a mind-blowing story & innovative effects such as the camera circles. But I hadn't seen Reloaded & Revolutions since their theatrical release. I was actually disappointed then, but not now. In hindsight, you can only be wowed once regarding a new world. What I hadn't paid attention to was the remarkable story that is carried through to the end. It's a credit to the Wachowskis that they didn't dumb down this complex series of story threads. The other realization was the wonderful chemistry between Keanu & Carrie-Anne -- their love was epic.

Great movies, awesome clarity
These movies are my favorite movies by far (yes, I even like the other two) and getting them on Blu-ray was a good decision. I recently bought a 60" Panasonic Plasma and these movies look awesome on it. I let my son watch these with me for his first time and I couldn't peel him away from the TV> He wanted to power through all three at once, but I made him split it over a few days. I like that this is only the movies and not all the extra DVDs as I already have those and don't need those in Blu-ray.
