Movie Reviews

Cinema Crazed - 8/10 by Felix Vasquez Jr.Not just Batman's tale, but it's also Commissioner Gordon's tale...
Sci-Fi Movie Page - 7/10 by James O'EhleyThe graphic novel, as they say, is always better but this animated adaptation of the 1980s comic isn't half bad . . .
Espinof - 6/10 by Sergio BenítezWith an extremely short running time, it manages to capture the essence of what made the comic book work so well. [Full review in Spanish]
IGN DVD - 4/10 by R. L. ShafferA stale adaptation of the classic Frank Miller comic. The film drowns in bad voice work and lacks the visual nuances found in the original story.

User Review - 10/10 by Michael BReally good. Inspired the Dark Knight Trilogy.
User Review - 10/10 by Ian SPerfectly serviceable (and arguably completely unnecessary) animated DC fare. Suffers considerably from not having Kevin Conroy voice Batman; Ben McKenzie does an okay job but lacks grit. Catwoman is completely wasted. Like many other DC/Marvel animated movies, it's way too short and the pacing is completely killed by a rushed ending - it feels very much like a "part 1" and leaves me with the impression that Year One would've been better served as a TV series. But, great animation and a nice effort.
User Review - 10/10 by Nino Gerard Yif you love and miss Batman Animated Series, this is the movie to watch!
User Review - 10/10 by Josh BOh man, did I like this! To me this was more of a Jim Gordon movie than Batman. Before he became commissioner Gordon just moving to Gotham City.
User Review - 10/10 by Shaun BGreat adaptation of the classic Frank Miller graphic novel.
