  The Matrix series - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Matrix series consists primarily of three films, The Matrix, The Matrix Reloaded and The Matrix Revolutions.
In acknowledgement of the Japanese anime that was a strong influence on the Matrix series, The Animatrix was produced.
The Matrix reused some of the film sets from Dark City, a movie filmed shortly before that was similar in plot and style but was not yet released long enough to have influenced the movies as The Matrix had already entered post-production by the time Dark City was released theatrically.

 The Matrix Reloaded Movie Review   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
For those unfamiliar with the story, the first "Matrix" posited a world taken over by machines, in which humans are used as batteries, rendered unconscious and hooked up to pod-like contraptions, which use their bodies' electrical energy to power the planet.
The "Matrix" itself is a computer program which all the humans are plugged into, making them believe they are going about their business on a normal earth, when their entire lives are just a virtual reality.
Maybe one of the appeals of the Matrix Series is that its metaphorical structure provides a fertile ground for musing about the ultimate meaning of human existence.

The Matrix series consists of the trilogy of films - The Matrix, The Matrix Reloaded, and The Matrix Revolutions - as well as the Animatrix episodes, video games, and other literature, all written and directed by the Wachowski brothers in the same settings.
The Matrix "universe" first depicted in the 1999 film was expanded into other media, including anime, comics and video games to complete the series.
However, given the obvious influences of Neuromancer on The Matrix, and the appearance of many Rastamen in Zion, it is likely that the name Zion is used as a metaphor (including its meaning to the Rastafari movement) and as a subtle homage to Gibson.

 Manga and the Matrix: Japan's cultural and linguistic influences on the Matrix series - Upfront Japan, Inc. - Find ...
JAPANESE FANS OF THE first Matrix film became--how shall I put it?--animated by the much-anticipated general release of the sequel Matrix: Reloaded on June 7, three weeks after it debuted in the West.
The Japanese love for all things Matrix is reciprocated in its American directors' fascination with Japan, and this, the self-proclaimed "Year of the Matrix," is the ideal time to examine the phenomenon of the intercultural feedback loop that the Matrix series epitomizes.
The code behind the Matrix is represented as green cathode ray lettering that is primarily composed of numbers and Japanese katakana (squarish characters used mainly to represent foreign loan words in Japanese), scrolling from top to bottom on the screen (like Japanese and Chinese can), and apparently random in content.

The Matrix is nevertheless exhilarating high-octane entertainment, although as the first part of a trilogy it perhaps inevitably doesn't have a proper ending.
The storyline is well known by now, with Neo being removed from the CGI world of the Matrix and discovering his destiny to be the One with a mission to save humanity.
These films can be seen as 'The Matrix Hollywoodised' because of its overmade and used computer effects and a plot that seems to intentially confuse you by never speaking in casual tongue in the film- at times you can feel like an idiot when you don't understand the plot.

Many people, including philosophers from Descartes to Morpheus, say yes: if we’re in a Matrix, then the ordinary objects that we seem to see don’t exist, and we’re radically deluded.
I say no: even if we’re in a Matrix, ordinary objects still exist, and most of our beliefs about the external world are correct.
Instead, we can see the Matrix hypothesis as a metaphysical hypothesis about the underlying nature of our world: one according to which the physics of our world is computational.
