The Animatrix
Film Review

I.

The Animatrix is solid sci-fi anime. It is like a cross between Heavy Metal, with its short stories and variety of visual styles, and Ghost in the Shell with its cybernetic futurism, man vs. machine vibe and themes. I rate this up as a fan of animation; other anime fans will likely enjoy it as well. Those who liked the Matrix but are not really into animation should probably lower their expectations and take away a star, but will probably find at least some of the stories interesting.

3.75 / 5.0
