Summary:
From the producers of Batman Begins and The Dark Knight comes an original animated movie chronicling the establishment and progression of Bruce Wayne into Gotham City's legendary caped crusader through 6 standalone episodes: "Have I Got a Story for You" (the mythos of Batman from the minds of children), "Crossfire" (the initial distrust and the eventual gaining of it from the perspective of the police), "Field Test" (the compassion of Batman, even towards his enemies), "In Darkness Dwells" (tracking down Killer Croc and The Scarecrow to foil his plot of resurgence amongst the villainous of Gotham), "Working Through Pain" (a look back at Bruce's training to manage both the physical and psychological pains he would later endure as Batman), and "Deadshot" (a race against the clock to protect Lt. Gordon from a highly-renowned assassin).
this was a downer for me. its the second time ive seen it. and i cant say i liked it any better the second time i saw it. the story is all a jumble and a mess, the anime dont follow a specific time line or story. henceforth the mess of it all. its like the produces just shuffled 5 batman comics and went strait to the animation. take note though.. 5 batman comics from different batman titles.
due to cramming 5 different batman stories to a little more then 1 hour the dialogue sucks. i where still amazed the second time i saw it. how horrible the dialogue where. most of the movie is about batman either fighting or hunting his prey.
the animation here was the only upside for me. there is some nice scenes where the details are well made. but the characters change shape to much. there seems like there are atlest 4 different people making batman. and all have different views on how he should look like. and i must say.. that's horrible. it should be a crime for less
as for the entertainment level of this anime.... i wold say its poor. border to very poor. since i couldn't enjoy the anime, due to all the annoyance i felt while watching it..
i wold not recommend this to any one who loves the dc world, or who have spent some time reading or watching batman
