It s not like your hd dvd player or discs stopped working when the format died.

The ultimate matrix collection blu ray review.

The high definition format war blew into town and the ultimate matrix collection was released on hd dvd with two separate sets you could choose from. This is primarily a 4k review but let s start with the new blu ray first because in and of itself it s a dramatic upgrade from the 2009 era blu ray. The super sized ultimate matrix collection and the slimmed down complete matrix trilogy for blu ray warner is releasing only the ultimate matrix collection portions of this review not specific to this release also appear in our reviews of the complete matrix. Unlike the previously released hd dvd of the ultimate matrix collection this blu ray box includes the animatrix in full high definition and it is a wonder to behold.

I ask the question which matrix collection version are you considering because the reviews here are of mixed different collections available. On the other hand hey. I purchased a 6 disc bluray version currently listed by amazon as. Whichever version of the set you have or choose the ultimate matrix collection was and continues to be a spectacular release.

Even though our writer awarded that release a 5 star video grade at the time in hindsight and in comparing all three discs for this review i d call the original matrix blu ray a 3 0 or 3 5 transfer at best. In may 2007 warner released two matrix box sets to hd dvd concurrently. I am very happy with this collection. The matrix first hit blu ray as part of the ultimate matrix collection last year itself the second high def incarnation of the series following an hd dvd release in 2007.

The ultimate matrix collection blu ray for about 25 00. I feel like i m seeing for the first time the true beauty of final flight of the osiris state of the computer animation in its day. That set came with considerable expectations which for me were met. All three films also look and sound incredible on this blu ray presentation as does the animatrix.

While the ultimate matrix collection on blu ray doesn t really bring anything new to the table in terms of supplements but the quantity and quality of the extras that are found here is phenomenal.
