This series of short animations should have been publicised much more than it was before they released the main sequel.
The first 4 shorts are essential viewing and should be watch in order of 2, 3, 4 and then 1.
The rest, whilst not bad, are just fillers and can quite easily be skipped.
Story 2 and 3 are about how the war began and ended. Story 4 is about a character from the 2nd film and helps explain his arc.
Story 1 is really the start of the 2nd film and explains a lot of the story arc from the first act.
So we get lots of different animation styles per story which you'll either love or hate. The soundtrack is very slow, sombre and of course, electronic but works very well with each story.
Even now, years later, it's surprising how many have watched the main trilogy but didn't even know these shorts existed.
If you're a fan of the Matrix, they're a must watch. And as already stated, the first four are required viewing before watching the main sequels.
Enjoy...
