Liga de la Justicia: Mundo bélico

I remember my self excited waiting for the next one at the end of every DC animated movie up until the the end of JLA Apokolips War and it's saga. Then the Tomorrow Verse came and... I lost passion for the DC movies. I don't like the style of the animation (I know it's subjective but I REALLY don't like it), the story are uniteresting for my taste and I don't feel anything that pull me back rewatching it or even watching it right after it comes out... sometimes I waited for months after it came out before I decided to seat down and have a look at it. Never happened with the previous adaptation. I watched this one so early just because one of my friend had it and we watched together. Not even looking for what's next. Voices are good, design is technically good I think , even though I don't like it... simply not for me.

It is like the department sacked everyone and employed some lame writers and illustrators. The story is all over the place and is incoherent, there is no reason why any of it is going on or what for.

This is the poorest DC movie I have seen and to be honest they are normally excellent, the Flashpoint, Batman and all the Superman animated stuff has excelled. I just hope this is a single misfire and not they way DC is going to go and end up like their movie releases, otherwise they are going to find themselves with a lot less people who will be interested in these types of movies.

Come on DC you can do better.

The DC Animated Films have always been a mixed bunch, but their newest addition, Justice League: Warworld, falls on the lesser side of quality. With an anthology type set-up, each story feels bland and emotionless, not providing much excitement or engagement. The voice acting is stiff and feels like a table-reading, instead of the final take. While the animation is fine, it has no expression and feels very standard. All the elements begin to feel boring before the first story is over and with nothing special in between, the ending could not come quicker. The R rating proved to be completely pointless, as nothing is done with it and it looked like just an excuse to have a Justice League film that includes some blood. Hopefully the new direction of the DCEU can provide a higher quality in the animated films too.

Justice League: Warworld is a huge misfire for the tomorrow-verse, wasting an interesting concept on an enjoyable but completely pointless 90 minute adventure that's made worse by some hilariously awful set up for the next crisis in this universe.

Taking away the identities of the League and putting them each in a different environment is a superb idea if they actually chose settings and stories that were linked to who these characters are deep down but these feel so random. Superman's comes closest as it almost tests what truth, justice and the American way really means.

Still, there's some funny be had in seeing Wonder Woman battle Jonah Hex in the Wild West and Batman fight a giant snake. Jensen Ackles, Darren Criss and Stana Katic are all fine here but really aren't given much, no arcs, no chemistry but they sound like their characters.

The animation is good, since all of these use the same style it kinda gets less impressive as they go along but it's by no means bad and still an improvement over the previous one. The pacing isn't good as it goes from an overly long first act into rushed a third act but it's rarely boring.

In the old west, Wonder Woman ends up battling Jonah Hex to save the townfolks. On Skartaris, Batman is taken by the forces of King Travis Morgan. He offers to lead them to wizard Deimos' castle for gold and freedom. It's the 1950's in town of Grovers Mill. Federal agents Clark Kent and King Faraday are sent to a mysterious UFO site. They meet highway patrol officer Bruce Wayne and various witnesses including Diana Prince at a local diner.

I like the individual imaginary stories. It's the overarching story that is a bit too disjointed and detached. The last act is more of a struggle. I wouldn't mind developing the other three stories into elseworld stories. It's not as good as a progression or continuation story.
