Ratings and reviews

I'd like to give it 5 stars but I paid $10 for it and I get a widescreen-cut-off version. Its a shame. Nothing worse than getting disappointed for a purchase. Not to mention it has very noticeable scanlines on any device.

Although it's more for people that love anime and CGI, it's an amazing movie compiled of different stories that help describe what the matrix is and how it was created. It also better explains the small references in the first 3 movies you don't get or don't realize how important they are to the plot. If you watch this first, then watch the other 3, it's easier to understand the whole story and the plots.

Google Play only allows for this content in SD, which wouldnt be bad if it had been decently encoded. Unfortunately playback looks like someone who had recorded it using a camera pointed at their TV. Too bad.
