Satisfying rendering of Frank Miller's iconic work

Although a live-action adaptation i... read more

Adapting Frank Miller’s iconic deconstruction of the Dark Knight mythos is a herculean effort for any creative team ballsy enough to try it. Not only was it a meta-commentary on the logical end-point of Batman’s borderline-insanity and obsessive nature, but a pitch-black satire on the entirety of the superhero enterprise. There’s just so much narrative that adapting proves a challenge of whi... read more

Batman has not been seen for ten years. A new breed of criminal ravages Gotham City, forcing 55-year-old Bruce Wayne back into the cape and cowl. But, does he still have what it takes to fight crime in a new era?

"---Comentario de las dos películas--- Muy buena pelicula, animacion correcta pero me decepciona que el doblaje sea tan "mediocre" solo luciendose la voz del el Joker, ni Superman se salva de esto, otra cosa es que no se por que son dos partes pues lo veo totalmente innecesario. Pero pasando eso me gusta ver que el el Bantan tan sanguinario del que tanto hablan, y ver a Superman ser una herramienta del gobierno americano."

The Dark Knight Returns, Part 1

“Adapting Frank Miller’s iconic deconstruction of the Dark Knight mythos is a herculean effort for any creative team ballsy enough to try it. Not only was it a meta-commentary on the logical end-point of Batman’s borderline-insanity and obsessive nature, but a pitch-black satire on the entirety of the superhero enterprise. There’s just so much narrative that adapting proves a challenge of which tone to stick with, what material to exercise, and just how long do they want this thing to last?   Well, by this point, the minds running DC’s direct-to-video animated film line deserves your trust that you’ll figure it all out. The Dark Knight Returns, Part 1 is an immensely satisfying work that acts as something of a vocal warm-up for the operatic mayhem to follow in Part 2. It begins” read more
