Batman - Gotham Knight ...
I picked up Batman - Gotham Knight yesterday. I've seen previews for this and it looks really good. I did watch some of the special features, but, I didn't have time to devote to actually watching the feature immediately...
Later, I did find some time to sit and watch the feature. It was pretty good and a very nice addition to the Batman franchise. There are some inconsistencies in the quality of the story-telling and in the style of animation in the various segments, but, overall it was good. I would give Batman - Gotham Knight a 3 out of 5.
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.
