Batman: The Long Halloween, Part Two

Batman: The Long Halloween, Part Two is an incredible conclusion that's thrilling, dark and satisfying and solidifies it as one of the stronger adaptations. Jensen Ackles, Josh Duhamel and Naya Rivera are all great once again. Chris Palmer's direction is also great and the animation is excellent. It's extremely well paced and the music by Michael Gatt is really good. However, it's brought down slightly by Batman feeling sidelined occasionally.

Unlike the first part this one was a bit rushed so it took a little bit of time to make sense of what was going on. The twist at the end though was really nice and somewhat unexpected. Apart from the minor inconsistent continuity this holds up as a sequel or part two should be.

First, the positive. The animation and voice acting were great. It had an interesting set up and the world building was decent. That's about it.

The premise from the first movie had promise, but in the end it felt like the writing force things to happen they way they should in order to make the ending happen.

Batman is made to look weak and is constantly getting beaten throughout the two parts, but no one thinks to just kill him. The villains win a lot, until the script needs them to lose so the movie can end. The twist feels out of place, as does Batman's reaction to it.

This had potential, but was a let down in the end.

This is better than part 1 in my opinion. The war crime in Gotham comes at a heavy price. And Gotham City is at a crossroads in it's history. Is it the end of the Mafia's control on Gotham, with a new breed of villains pooping up to take over? This is the story that explores this transition in a vital part of Batman's history.

I loved seeing some of the rogues gallery in action for this new universe. Josh Duhamel's performance is really on point. The rest is great too but I really felt bad for Harvey Dent in this. The action scenes are better too and I loved that the movie also leaves some things open to the viewers opinions, like the book.

Looking forward to what comes next.

The brilliance continues with part 2 still focusing on the Holiday serial killer which was filled with twists and turns even I couldn't see coming, and i've watched a hell of a ton of movies in my 26 years of life. With a introduction of a heap of new characters that werent in part 1, lets get straight into this movie.

Whoever voice Two-Face in this was perfect. Per-fect. That is exactly how I imagined Two-Face sounding like everytime I saw him on screen or in comics. The same goes for Scarecrow and Poison Ivy, Mad Hatter and I could go on and on. Wes Gleason did a great job as usual casting the voices. This was a great as the first part, continuing the story and I especially liked the action. Definitely recommend this two-part movie to anyone who wants to have fun with a good movie.
