When I was young, I was so impressed with the story of "World Record". The lines of the muscles, the momentum of running, the protagonist's obsession to go beyond the limits of the human body to pursue the essence of the world, also paid the price accordingly, and finally stood up from the wheelchair. This imagery is a great ending. Looking at it again now, the dark picture of "Detective Story" is fascinating. The cyberpunk European-style architecture has a poor but persistent private detective. This setting still looks trendy. At the end of the story, although the detective failed to escape Smith's transformation and stopped the next step and jumped out of the matrix, he still followed the old school style and stayed behind. The story of "Beyond" reminds me that only when I was a child would I always pay attention to unusual events, with the supernatural imagination of a different world, but when I grew up, I gradually lost this ability. The last story is very interesting, the colors are very psychedelic, and a setting is made. What is the consciousness of an intelligent robot? Can he understand the human world? Can it really be a partner rather than a tool of slavery? Situations are human-guided and purposeful presentations. Is that true? The last story raises numerous questions.

The Animatrix quotes

  • Cis: Operator, please! Get me out of here right now. Operator, I need an exit!

    Duo: It's no use. I told you. I've blocked your signal.

  • The Instructor: The prolonged barrage engulfed Zero-One in the glow of a thousand suns. But unlike their former masters with their delicate flesh, the machines had little to fear of the bombs' radiation and heat. Thus did Zero-One's troops advance outwards in every direction. And one after another, mankind surrendered its territories. So the leaders of men conceived of their most desperate strategy yet. A final solution: the destruction of the sky.
