User Reviews
Overall theme is complex, tries to tie in to the dark Knight trilogy too much
There are some awesome interpretations in here, and then some very bizarre ones that don’t seem to fit the character at all.
It was fun to watch, and interesting to see different takes and ideas for batman. But it just seemed more quanity or quality.
An interesting animation style for Batman. Story is sub par, but anime looked good on the Dark Knight.
Not my favourite Batman animated film. Some cool ideas.
Fun companion piece to the Dark Knight trilogy. Surprisingly cohesive for an anthology, though it is still choppy at times. Conroy is great.
Good overall. Some of the shorts struggle more than others, but it was interesting to see Batman in the anime medium. 6/10.
The beginning is one of the most badass openings ever.
Drastically different styles of animation in this 6 story anthology make it a pleasant watch.
Really surprised me the first time I watched it. Very interesting story accompanied with great animation.
