After watching the Justice League TV show and Justice League Unlimited TV show, I was a little disappointed after watching this movie. Perhaps I was expecting a continuation of the TV show, and that's not what this is. The voices were good, but the animation was not as good as it was in the TV show and seems to have been written completely differently. In the end, however, the movie was entertaining and I really did enjoy watching it.

This is a great superhero movie. An quality story in its own right, and a faithful adaptation of the excellent graphic novel it is based on.

I liked the JL series characters much better than the ones used in the New Frontier.
Here is a comment to all animated series directors/producers: Could you please be consistent. In one episode, Superman is all powerful and almost nothing can hurt him, in another he is beaten easily; same for all the other characters. Also, the Superman series, the JL series, the Superman movies, the new animated Batman series, the old Super Friends series, and now the JL New Frontier movie, all have somewhat a different background story to tell about each of the characters, how they came to be, how the league started, who started and leads the league, etc. Finally, as for any Sci-Fi film, have you noticed that the good guys never add to their arsenals what they have learned from other encounters!

I was always a Marvel snob growing up when it came to the comics, but after getting interested in animation I found the JL and JLU series to be some of the best I'd seen and could watch with my family. My girls and I love to watch most all of the productions that Bruce Timm has had his hand in, and this one is no different. I like the entire concept with art and feel from the late 60s, it is a retro league and well worth the money.

I'm sure there are purists who'll dis this, but I thought they got it right on this one. Where "Superman: Doomsday" was predictable and uninspired, this is intriguing and unique, and it oozes style. The character designs are rather basic, but they work here; Green Lantern feels like the center of the story, but all our favorites get their due. I recommend this movie whole heartedly, for adults and youth alike.
