Leave your thoughts about Batman: The Dark Knight Returns, Part 1.
| Sci-Fi Movie PageRob VauxDC's theatrical releases may be facing a bleak future, but titles like this remind us that their direct-to-video line is alive and well. |
| Aisle SeatMike McGranaghanIt's highly respectful of the work on which it is based, yet also a solidly entertaining effort in its own right. |
| Film ThreatMark BellIf you're a Batman fan, just hearing the words The Dark Knight Returns likely gets you excited, so this film was probably already on your radar... |
| Common Sense MediaBrian CostelloExtremely violent animated addition to the Batman story. |
| eFilmCritic.comRob Gonsalves...this first half is essentially throat-clearing before the operatic finale. The pacing seems abrupt and rapid... |
| User ReviewZachary RAmazing! i even own part 1 & 2 on Blu Ray! xD |
| User ReviewWilliam PThe graphic novel comes alive, can't wait for pt II so I can watch the entire story. This is one of the most epic Batman stories ever written this is a must see! |
| User ReviewJ L"You don't get it 'Son'! This isn't a mudhole, this is an operating table....and I'M THE SURGEON!" |
| User ReviewAlexandre PAn absolutely perfect Batman film. Extremly Brutal and violent, the story and the characters are great. The animation is perfect too. |
| User ReviewWilliam LAbsolutely superb - You hang on to the story's every word, and although the dark knight has aged, he still has a lot of his chops. |
