Rating: Super Review by: Mark Capitelli
The Animatrix is a collection of top quality animated shorts that relate to the films The Matrix and The Matrix Reloaded.  They're sort of like prequels to The Matrix, although they aren't directly related to either Matrix films.  
The series features some of my favorite anime directors including Shinichirô Watanabe (the genius behind Cowboy Bebop) and Yoshiaki Kawajiri (the genius behind Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust, Ninja Scroll, Cyber City Oedo 808, X).

The only problem is with the individual shorts themselves.  Some are good, some are bad.

In my opinion, the best shorts are Final Flight of The Osiris, Second Renaissance parts 1 & 2, Kid's Story, and ProgramFinal Flight of the Osiris is a quick and very familiar Matrix journey that sets up The Matrix Reloaded.  It features top quality computer animation and a lot of action.  Second Renaissance is the story of what began the war against the machines and eventually led to the construction of The Matrix.  Kid's Story shows the awakening of a teenaged boy from The Matrix who is showcased in Matrix Reloaded.  Program is a real trip for anime fans.  It demonstrates a training program set in feudal Japan and the rigorous training that human soldiers must go through in order to fight the machines.  Each of these tales adds a new dimension to the Matrix saga.
The other tales are similar.  All of them are great eye candy and fun stories to muse on.  They are however a little disturbing and bizarre for a young audience.  Basically, if you are old enough to watch and enjoy The Matrix, then you are old enough to see them.  

You don't have to be a Matrix fan to enjoy these animated shorts, but, if you are a Matrix fan, The Animatrix is a must-see.
