5.0 out of 5 stars Shedding Light on a complicated subject, 10 Jun 2004
By A Customer
I found this book an excellent rescource for discussing culture, film and philosophy. The balance of authors makes for a range of perspectives and with a film like the Matrix that really helps as I think very few viewers have all the answers.
Well laid out and esay to read, this book is a must if you are seriuosly intersted in film or culture today.

5.0 out of 5 stars matrix revalations, 14 Jun 2004
I'm not the biggest book worm in the world, but being a fan of the matrix trilogy I found this book hard to put down. It goes through what happens in the films, and the issues they raise such as postmodernism, religion and whether we really are trapped in a 'matrix'. The book is clearly written by Christians, but this should not be a reason not to buy the book, as they deal fairly with the film, showing all the different philosophies surrounding it, and comparing them with Christianity and other religions/worldviews. The book is subtitled 'A thinking fan's guide' and it does achieve its goal, by provoking questions raised by the film, and making any reader think about how they view the world. If you enjoyed the philosophical side of the films, then this book is an excellent companion.

5.0 out of 5 stars Quick reactions, 22 Aug 2004
By A Customer
This fascinating book, published so soon after the release of the third Matrix film, is written by several people. However, it is very well edited and the book works as a whole, not as various unintegrated parts.
It is not a book that tells you what to think, but it does inform your thinking and enable you to worry away happily at important issues the film brings up.
It is a great idea to have such a detailed, prompt and worthy response to a film that caught peoples' imaginations. Thanks to all who contributed to the book and thanks to the editor for making it all one very good work.
