Men vs. Machine
14 July 2015
Warning: Spoilers
This 9-minute short film from 12 years ago is part of the Animatrix series and also the first half of a two-part movie. Men become more and more angry at machines when these become more and more intelligent. The consequence is a bloody battle, especially for the machines. They lave and settle elsewhere, but decide to give mankind another chance as they return to the United Nations in a peaceful attempt. It is mentioned that this will not be the last time they show up there, so after being rejected I assume the return in the second part will not be equally peaceful. Just like the live action film, this was written by the Wachowski brothers (and sisters) and the director also worked on Tarantino's "Kill Bill" for example. Sounds like a good premise, but sadly, I was not really impressed by this one here. Lets hope that the second part turns out better.
