Movie Reviews of The Matrix Revisited
Movie Review: Best behind the scenes documentary
Summary: 5 Stars
I was hesitant to buy this DVD; I felt that the studio should have placed the material on a Matrix Special Edition DVD instead. But now I am so glad that I bought it! This is a 2-hour documentary on the making of the first film, with a few tidbits about the next 2 films. It's the best, most extensive behind-the-scenes film I've ever watched. It covers the making of the film from pre-production to principal photography to post production. There's a lot of coverage on how the actors trained for the martial arts scenes in the film, really grueling training. If you're into this type of material, it's worth buying. There are extensive interviews with the four main actors. Best of all, you can see the original fight scenes as played out by the Asian stunt team and compare this to the filmed sequences with the actors.Movie Review: Fantastic supplement to Matrix
Summary: 5 Stars
I love "Behind the Scenes" footage, and this DVD met my expectations. It really goes down into HOW they made the movie; they cover the training, the journey to Australia for filiming The Matrix, visual effects, sound effects. One really interesting feature was the bullet cameras, which is very, very new in Hollywood. Hundreds of cameras take still pictures (making it slow motion) while another swivels around. I hadn't realized the effort it took to film, say, Trinity's kick in the beginning of The Matrix, or Neo dodging bullets.
There are also several interviews with the actors themselves (Fishburne, Moss, Reeves, and Weaving-- in his own Australian accent, which I've never heard before.) and the directors, how they came up with this concept.
I really think this is worth watching.
Movie Review: A GREAT addition for the movie
Summary: 5 Stars
Every now and then a movie comes along that is both highly entertaining and intellectualy stimulating. As this DVD will show, the viewers will catch a glimpse of the level of difficulty it takes to make such an incredible film. As if the original Matrix DVD wasn't all ready loaded with special features, Matrix Revisted goes even further into the world of the Matrix. Just don't get confused while you're pondering the purchase of this DVD; this is not the Matrix movie...rather it is a full documentary on the making of the movie and the impact it had on the film crew along with the fans of the Matrix. This is an absolute must have...and honestly, I feel very lucky that someone actually put it together and released it for the masses. Thank you Warner brothers!Movie Review: Great behind the scenes look at the Matrix!
Summary: 5 Stars
I hesitated getting this DVD because I already own the movie's DVD which already has behind the scenes specials. The additional material on the DVD, however, was definately worth it. It was great to see and hear all the principal actors and creators reviewing the making of the original Matrix. There's quite a bit more detail on the martial arts training and filming, as well as on the visual effects. I only wish there was a gag real included, but you can't have it all. If you liked the Matrix at all, you'll really enjoy this DVD.Movie Review: A superb documentary, and much more!
Summary: 5 Stars
Being a fan of "The Matrix", getting this DVD was a no-brainer for me. The 2-hour documentary goes into an insane amount of detail about the conception and making of the film (and gives you a little tease about the upcoming two "Matrix" films), and even talks about the film's website, the upcoming animated "Matrix" shorts, and even has a few little surprises (wander through the menus for that). But the documentary alone is worth the price of admission here.
