The Ultimate Matrix Collection Blu-rayWarner Bros. | 1999-2003 | Rated R | Oct 14, 2008
The Ultimate Matrix Collection(1999-2003)Action | Adventure | Sci-Fi | Thriller ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Multiple-disc box set includes: The Matrix The Matrix Reloaded The Matrix Revolutions The Animatrix The Matrix Experience documentary 35 hours of extra content For more details about The Ultimate Matrix Collection on Blu-ray, see The Ultimate Matrix Collection Blu-ray Review The Ultimate Matrix Collection Blu-ray, Video QualityWarner brings The Matrix trilogy home on Blu-ray with a 1080p transfer utilizing the VC-1 compression codec. All three films are framed at their original theatrical aspect ratio of 2.40:1. While this is a port of the previously released HD DVD version, these transfers are pretty fantastic and all feature near-reference grade video. The look of The Matrix films has been discussed in detail before, but for those new to the series, Cinematographer Bill Pope has given each environment in the film a distinct look. Scenes taking place within the Matrix are given a distinct green tint while those in the real world locations are decidedly blue hued. The human home of Zion offers yet another striking change in palette and generally comes across in warmer yellow tones. All of this adds to the visual uniqueness of the film and gives each location an easy to discern visual flair. Although these Blu-ray presentations look fantastic, the weakest of the three films is the original. Perhaps the higher budget of the two sequels allowed for more time and attention to be placed on the visual look of the film. Regardless, all three look great and the second and third films in the series just have a slight amount of polish to them that isn’t present in the grittier original. Black levels are excellent throughout the three films and detail is exceptional. I noticed a slight amount of what appeared to be macroblocking in a single scene in The Matrix, but it was so slight that it was pure luck that I managed to even notice it. Edge enhancement is also non-existent throughout the three films and color reproduction is vivid and well saturated. I can’t imagine any fans of the series being even the slightest bit disappointed in the visual presentation on the Blu-ray discs and The Matrix trilogy is very highly recommended. The Ultimate Matrix Collection Blu-ray, Audio Quality![]() Exploding onto Blu-ray in fabulous Dolby TrueHD 5.1 sound, The Matrix has never sounded better. This fantastic sound experience should prove to be a real treat to home theater aficionados everywhere as The Matrix has always been top-flight demo material for the home theater. The sound design for these films is about as active and exciting as anything ever recorded, so be prepared for your subwoofer to practically leap off the floor and for your surround channels to light up with explosions an automatic weapons fire. One of the hallmarks of the sound of The Matrix comes during the many “Bullet Time” sequences. As time stops and the camera pans around the action, sound spins in relation to the camera throughout the surround field. It was an amazing effect in the theater, on DVD and it has never been more effective than it is on Blu-ray. Be sure to crank the volume as loud as you can take it when Neo and Trinity launch their assault on the lobby of the building where Morpheus is being held captive in the first movie. Every spent shell that drops to the floor absolutely rings in the speakers with a crispness and clarity that is completely hair raising. The Matrix was made for lossless audio and this Blu-ray presentation is simply flawless, powerful and amazing.
