Deathstroke Knights & Dragons: The Movie

Animation was decent, plot was unoriginal with generic action/superhero cliches, runtime bloated with too much exposition and the characters were one-dimenional and predictable with no consistency in personality, motivation, powers or ability. Deathstroke is one of DCs coolest and most complex characters, yet they gave him a basic superhero revenge/redemption story.

Waste of a great character and as well as an R rating that adds nothing to the screenplay.

80% of this movie is just exposition and flashbacks and every tropes and clichés you can think of is here. Slade is berated by everyone the entire movie and it gets tiring really quick. The villain is the villain in every movie and animation you can think of. The story is the same and there's nothing new here. Enemies are the most re*** ****s ever. DC's animations were always better than Marvel's, but jesus christ this is repetitive and stale. I want something new, not another 1 hour and half movie with expositions everywhere and a predictable plot and no good characterization. The animators didn't even bother to actually draw cars and buildings in one scene! We've had years of DC animated movies like this and it's 2020, just stop making movies like this and focus on making new good shows or movies that have something new and it's not full of clichés and exposition and actually put effort in it or I won't even bother watching another one.

Despite it's overly melodramatic approach and a forgettable villiain, Deathstroke Knights and Dragons: The Movie is still a really good DC animated movie that's fun and action packed. Michael Chiklis gives a great lead performance and Sasha Alexander, Griffin Puatu and Faye Mata are all really good. Sung Jin Ahn's direction is really good, it's well paced and the animation is also really good. The music by Kevin Riepl is good.

Deathstroke could possibly be the action hero movie that will save DC. They need to work fast and get this on the big screens. I don't know what's taking them so long. The animation was great, the story was great and I love the action n directing.

Animation was different which i liked very bold move in changing animation styles. But it works Violence is necessary R and used to its full potential. I need more though it was just a taste of what could be but i highly recommend it if you are like man and love the DC animated world that has been created.
