Editorial Review:

Product Description:
Acclaimed screenwriters including David Goyer (Batman Begins) Josh Olson (A History of Violence) and Alan Burnett (Batman The Animated Series) join forces with revered animation filmmakers on six spellbinding chapters chronicling Batman s transition from novice crimefighter to Dark Knight. These globe-spanning adventures pit Batman against the fearsome Scarecrow the freakish Killer Croc and the unerring marksman Deadshot. Using an arsenal of high-tech gadgetry from Wayne Industries Batman s ethical boundaries exist only where he chooses to place them leaving some fearful of his power. The sharp storytelling complemented by stylish art from some of the world s most visionary animators masterfully depicts the blurred lines of Batman as man myth and legend.Format: BLU-RAY DISC Genre: CHILDREN/FAMILY Rating: PG-13 UPC: 085391179511 Manufacturer No: 117951

Rating: - Bruce Wayne looks like a character from Pokeman?!!!!
This review is a warning for all parents. I got this DVD as a free rental at Family Video in the children section. IT IS DEFINITELY NOT A DVD TO BE VIEWED BY CHILDREN. Gunfights where blood is splattering all over the place. One kid's description of a Batman fight where they show Batman cutting off his opponents head! While watching I kept asking myself - "what's the point?"

Rating: - Not what it promised.
This movie was way over hyped as a bridge between Batman Begins and The Dark Knight. While there are some of the same characters and it helps to establish Batman as Gotham's hero, it really doesn't have much of any direct ties to the movies. As much as I love Kevin Conroy's Batman from the animated series, I also thought he was miscast in this movie. The different art style and universe it's set in just feel like they should've gone with someone else.

Rating: - Might want to watch it a second time
The whole story line of this I thought was good. You might want to watch it a second time though. The animation changes between 6 different artists during the movie. There were times I thought the animation of certain artists seemed very lazy. At certain points I was thinking that doesn't even look like batman it just looks like a fat guy in the suit. Nice thing about this I thought were special features (It had more special features of the 2-disc of Dark Knight). The thing I liked most about the ... Read More

While Iron Man and Wolverine made some big news this summer with the trailers for their upcoming "anime" projects, the Caped Crusader beat them to the punch by about a year. Granted, anime-styled features like The Animatrix have come out before this, but Batman: Gotham Knight(which was the third DC Universe animated movie)acted like Dark Fury and Clone Wars which bridges the gap between two chapters of a franchise. It's supposed to happen after Batman Begins, and just before The Dark Knight, although ... Read More

Before The Dark Knight hit theaters, the good folks over at DC Comics and Warner Brothers figured they'd cobble together an eclectic assortment of animated, interconnected short films created by renowned Japanese animators and American writers and release it to the public, a Batman Begins 1.5 of sorts. The shorts are quick, brutal and absolutely beautiful with only one glaring flaw in the entire release, even at a running time of 76 minutes the DVD runs way too short!

Folks, this DVD isn't ... Read More
