Summary: The Matrix movie IS art
Comment: This is one of the best "Art of..." books. The drawings are simply fantastic, the captions are very informative and it really acts as a companion to the movie, rather than a separate book for people who like art. Awesome!
Rating: 5
Summary: Awesome. Simply awesome...
Comment: This book gave me the feeling I had when I saw *the matrix* for the very first time. Overwhelmed, in a good way.
It must have been a major undertaking to make this visual *history* of the movie. The art, altho most isnt full color, is spectacular. It was a great visual journey that speaks of the movies graphic novel beginnings.
I actually bought this book as a special birthday gift for my 12 year old son who loves both this movie and comic art (well, art in general) It is quite expensive. The cover price is $60 altho I got it for $50 at a local store. Still expensive and I had my second thoughts about buying it, especially for my son. I just felt that the book was very sturdy. Nice heavy hardcover, large format and thick, glossy pages. It seemed like a book that would hold up. An in truth I have spent more on video games for him that he was *finished* with in a few days. I think this will be a book he enjoys, reads,is inspired by and learns to draw from for a very long time.
In a way this book reminds me of the the *art from star wars* series. Possibly, those books were a *bit* slicker with their many color pictures, perhaps for more mass appeal. But looking back, I dont see them to be as dynamic as this one.
Honestly, I cant wait for my sons birthday so I can un-hide this book and lose myself in ...well....the matrix.
Rating: 3
Summary: I expected more
Comment: The art of this book is great, however I missed more photos of the real movie and also off-screen photos to make the work perfect, because the movie deserves. In spite of it, I recommend this book.
