DC Showcase: Sgt. Rock

I remember reading some Sgt. Rock comic books back in my childhood, though I can't recall the storylines. I just remember the name and it being a World War II comic. And then here in 2022, I stumble upon the 2019 DC animated short feature titled "DC Showcase: Sgt. Rock". Of course I had to give it a view.

Running at just 15 minutes, the storyline does not really have all that much to offer. Sure, it was a fun 15 minutes of warfare, monsters and good old fashioned fun. So if you have the chance to sit down to watch "DC Showcase: Sgt. Rock", from writers Tim Sheridan, Louise Simonson and Walter Simonson, then do so. In 15 minutes you can only do so much, but the storyline was actually enjoyable for what it turned out to be, as it was World War II combined with traditional movie monsters.

How true "DC Showcase: Sgt. Rock" is to the comic book is not something I am qualified to tell you. I just downright don't know. But this 2019 animated short feature certainly was enjoyable enough.

The animation and art style is good, and definitely suited me, as it felt like something from 1980s, say like "G. I. Joe" for example.

My rating of "DC Showcase: Sgt. Rock", from director Bruce Timm, lands on a six out of ten stars.

Pure trash. No plot and nothing just a short film with no clue . Literally feeling bad to waste my time for this.

A Vampire, a Werewolf, The Frankenstein's Monster and Sgt. Rock walk into a Nazi camp....

the rest is history.

I loved the animation style and the whole storytellling.

If you grew up reading Sgt. Rock comics like I did. Don't watch this. The animation is lack luster and lazy. The story might be a reboot but it is dismal. Go & buy an issue of Our Army at War if you wish to reminisce about Easy Co. This is not how I want to remember Sgt. Rock. Karl Urban voicing Sgt. Rock was a good choice. Only reason I give this 2 stars.

You have to watch it guys... if this were a movie I watch it right now... this needs to become a movie
