Movie Reviews of The Batman Superman Movie
Movie Review: The Batman Superman Movie..........
Summary: 4 Stars
I'm a big fan of Batman and Superman. Have been since my youth. Seeing as to how they'd be starring in a movie together, you'd think I'd be giving this movie a five-star rating. While I desperately wanted to give it such a rating, this animated film just didn't excite me as much as any of the others I've seen of the DC Universe. In this tale, Joker and Harley steal the Laughing Dragon(which turns out to be made of Krpytonite). Finding this out, Joker plots Superman's death with Lex Luthor for a sum of money. Lex agrees but doesn't want to be found out as a partner to the crime. It's up to Batman and Superman working together to stop it from happening. Meantime, Bruce Wayne and Lois Lane start to become romantically involved much to the chagrin of Clark Kent & that causes many a problem for our duo.
Don't get me wrong. This animated feature isn't entirely awful. Actually, it is a fun film. I did give it four stars. It's just that I was expecting alot more out of it considering it's our 'World's Finest' team. To me, it seemed uninspired. Whereas the show,the new Batman/Superman Adventures, was alot more inspired than this.
At any rate, if you're a big Batman/Superman fan--check this one out. You might like it more than I did. Tim Daly and Kevin Conroy head up the cast as vocal talent for the movie.
Summary of The Batman Superman Movie
This feature-length tape began as a three-episode story line on the animated TV series, a superhero crossover where Bruce Wayne visits Metropolis and the Dark Knight meets the Man of Steel for the first time. The two heroes mix like oil and water, the law-and-order Superman suspicious of Batman's rather ruthless methods; but they form an uneasy partnership when Lex Luthor and the Joker team up to take on the duo. To add a personal dimension to the already edgy rivalry, Wayne romances Lois Lane under Clark Kent's very nose. The stylized animation and sharp design of the TV series give the limited animation a sleek, smooth quality and an energetic sense of movement. Timothy Daly supplies the voices for Clark Kent and (in a deeper register) Superman, with Kevin Conroy performing the same vocal trick for Bruce Wayne/Batman; but Dana Delany only has to worry about one persona as Lois Lane. The once-and-future Luke Skywalker, cult film star turned voice actor Mark Hamill, provides the Joker's cackling banter. --Sean Axmaker.Action & Adventure DVD Video
