A must for the hardcore Batman fan,
By BrunoU (Montreal, QC) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Batman: Gotham Knight [Blu-ray] (Blu-ray)
I really loved all of the episodes on this Blu-ray. But the two mini-documentaries make it all the more special. To see batman comics authors talking about the villains and how they relate to Batman or to watch the history of Batman creator Bob Kane is worth the price of the item on their own. Very special item for the Batman fan.

A full range of Batman animation....,

This review is from: Batman: Gotham Knight (Two-Disc Special Edition) (DVD)
That one was givien to me as an X-Mas gift. I did not expect anything out of it. Hummm !!! PG-13 Batman....The 2nd disk is simply awesome. Half a disk of Bat-history plus 4 unreleased episodes from the Batman Animated serie (5 stars). The disk will make this package a collector's item. The interview with Bob Kane was casual and full of insights. The anthology of Batman's classic foes was a treat for me. A bit on the psychological side, but the Joker, the Riddler, Catwoman and all the others are all psychos to start with. A very very cool Special features disk.... The main feature is to a stylish exercise. It has to be looked at with a pair of experimental glasses. Do not expect 2 hours of simple Saturday morning fun. I watched some of it on a big TV and discovered tha it is the only way to really appreciate some of the stories. The runtime got in the way of the producers. They shoud have been given 30 minutes to fully express themselves. Example : The killer Croc one was well done, but ended abruptly. The 3 kids story was too simple. You will find something that will grab you, for sure. Animation is breath-taking, at times. The complex layered soundtrack is to be heard VIA a house cinema system. An earfull.... This complex 2 disk ensemble will become a collector's item in some years. It may just have been released ahead of it's time.

Very Good,

This review is from: Batman: Gotham Knight (DVD)
To be frank I only liked the second half of the film. The first half constists of nothing but the view of Batman through the eyes of various civilians, and Batman beating up goons.The second half or the last two stories are far more enjoyable. Working Through Pain was written by one of my favourite comic book writers Brian Azarello (100 Bullets), and he did a good job in annunciating that Bruce really doesn't want to work through the pain of his parents death. He wants to hold on to that pain because it gives him purpose and it drives him. And really if he were to give up that pain--he probably would find his life devoid and meaningless and purposeless. The Deadshot story, I liked because it shows the kind of Alpha male hero who is willing to stand down any threat (yet not a goon) warrior I like to see him portrayed as.
