Review

"Here is a book that intelligently and thoughtfully analyses the worldview of the Matrix trilogy." -- Brian Godawa, Hollywood screenwriter and author of Hollywood Worldviews "This stimulating and challenging book enables us to identify and evaluate the multi-textured references through all three Matrix films." -- Anthony Thacker, author of A Closer Look at Science Fiction "A multi-faceted, rich, illuminating and serious exploration of the Matrix film trilogy, and the major ideas behind it. This book not only engages with the material in a helpful, Biblical and robust way but also avoids the temptation of reducing the films simply to sources of evangelistic illustrations." -- Mark Greene, London Institute for Contemporary Christianity
