- The human city of Zion defends itself against the massive invasion of the machines as Neo fights to end the war at another front while also opposing the rogue Agent Smith.
- This making-of piece is composed of four segments: "Revolutionary Composition" (8:45), "The Glue" (7:30), "Dane Tracks" (7:21), and "Cause and Effects" (16:10). We discover remarks from Des Jardin, Gaeta, Darrow, Libreri, Murphy, Barrois, composer Don Davis, editor Zach Staenberg, assistant editor Allison Gibbons, visual effects editor Jody Rogers, sound designer Dane Davis, visual effects producer Di Giorgiutti, animator Michael Holzl, effects supervisor Mike Schmitt, technical director/compositor Jon Heckman, animator Greg Gladstone, senior visual effects supervisor Craig Hayes, ESC Entertainment chief technology officer Paul Ryan, art director Tom Hull, supervising animator Tom Gibbons, animator Scott Kravitz, UCAP processor Ken Faiman, compositor Barnaby Robson, animation supervisor Michael F. Gay, animator Kody Sabourin, sequence lead Mohen Leo, and ESC Entertainment technology supervisor George Borshukov. The segments cover the movie's music, editing, sound effects, and computer generated elements. These serve to summarize post-production elements well.
- This making-of piece is composed of five segments: "Dig This" (9:53), "The Siege Action Match" (10:03), "Anatomy of a Shot: Mifune's Last Stand" (5:07), "Building an APU" (5:06), and "Product of Zion" (9:56). They present statements from Gaeta, Pope, Paterson, Beck, Rondell, Boswell, actors Rachel Blackman, Harold Perrineau, Nona Gaye, Harry Lennix and Nathaniel Lees, producer Joel Silver, visual effects supervisor George Murphy, computer animator Gabe Rountree, MoCap supervisor Demian Gordon, high speed first assistant camera Paul Sanchez, art director Nancy Noblett, conceptual designer Geoffrey Darrow, prop maker foremen Adam Savage, Dave Fogler and Fon Davis, property manufacture supervisor Peter Wyborn, weapons coordinator Robert Galotti, animation supervisor Lyndon J. Barrois, visual effects supervisor John Des Jardin, and pre-vis supervisor Colin Green. "Siege" gets into the massive Zion battle sequence. "Match" gives us a comparison feature; it shows the final footage on the bottom while we see relevant behind the scenes bits on the top. "Anatomy" offers narration from Gaeta as he focuses on the execution of this part of the battle. The technical elements dominate, though "Product" offers a nice look at some of the Zion characters.
- This making-of piece is composed of four segments: "The Skybarn" (4:50), "The Crater" (4:55), "The Egg" (2:43), and "Anatomy of a Superpunch" (4:19). We hear from Paterson, Rondell, Cook, Gaeta, McTeigue, martial arts stunt coordinator Chad Stahelski, stunt player Darko Tuskan, stunt performer David Leitch, gag supervisor Rodney Burke, on set technician Jason Grant, and actors Mary Alice, Keanu Reeves and Hugh Weaving. "Skybarn" offers a cool deconstruction of stunt shots that lets us see how various performers take on different elements. Despite the relative brevity of "Brawl", it covers the appropriate topics well. "Anatomy" echoes the Gaeta-narrated feature found in the prior section, while the others delve into a mix of subjects. We get notes from the actors ala "Crater". Gaeta's "Anatomy" is an interesting segment, especially when we see test footage created for the shot.
- This making-of piece is composed of five segments: "Geography of Zion" (8:45), "The Ships" (5:43), "Tour of the Neb" (3:16), "Matrix TV" (5:14) and "Logos Fight Expansion" (3:07). These feature notes from Gaeta, Paterson, Lennix, Perrieneau, Darrow, Cook, McTeigue, Pope, art director Charlie Revai, screen graphics design supervisor Tim Richter, screen graphics technical supervisor Tim Ahern, and actors Laurence Fishburne, Ian Bliss and Jada Pinkett-Smith.

These show a mix of movie clips, behind the scenes elements, and interviews. We hear from production designer Owen Paterson, supervising art director Hugh Bateup, art director Jules Cook, props department leading hand Kevin McManus, second unit director Kimble Rendall, second unit director of photography Ross Emery, second unit dolly grip Matt Coping, director of photography Bill Pope, supervising key grip Ray Brown, gaffer Reg Garside, and first assistant director James McTeigue. They cover sets and art design, the work of the second unit, Pope's career and cinematographic choices, electrical issues, and various practical physical work required to shoot. "Army" covers the art department's offices and introduce us to the workers. "World" details the nature of second unit photography. "Bill Pope" goes through some general subjects and "Masters" acts more as a general introduction than anything else.
- This making-of piece is composed of six segments: We get "Coat Check" (4:40), "Upsidedown Under" (5:11), "Fast Break" (5:46), "Exploding Man" (4:35), "Gun Club" (2:26) and "The Extras of Club Hel" (4:55).
