Justice League: Warworld

A series of beautifully animated, overly bloody, poorly written and totally inconsequential stories that culminate in a disjointed ending that ultimately serves no purpose.

I'm genuinely not sure there's been a properly good DC Animated movie since the Flashpoint series, although the standard of the new voice acting is excellent and overall the animation quality is higher than it used to be, but the last few have been so incredibly lacklustre that it really makes no sense why they're putting money into these stories instead of further Elseworld adaptions or any of the million excellent Batman/Superman standalone graphic novels.

If you've got 90 minutes to burn, this one is fine, but it really doesn't add anything if you've got fond memories of the adaptions of 10 years ago.

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.

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.

Close in terms you try something different and it takes time to understand, Far because it gradually gets boring. Im a die hard JLA fan and didnt believe i would ever hit the ff button in a JLA movie.

DC has given us some really good ones and you have the playing field to do that with the characters and their powers. Doom and crisis on 2 earths are some such amazing works. But here it just like another simulation favoring a few characters. I say it time and again, the martian is ithe most underutilized character in DC considering his powers.

Hope to see better over time. This was a fine offering but doesnt utilize its full potential and is watchabe but a bit dull. DC fans go ahead but dont expect too much.

Present rating of 5.5 is precise.

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.
