Justice League: Warworld

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.

Ever since JL Dark Apokolips War they haven't really made a good adaptation. Why are they even bother to make these flops. The story is obviously rushed like other animations before. The only good thing about this movie is the voice acting,they did a good job. This movie has many story lines but executed poorly and failed to make conclusion out of it. DC animation department need to slow down things before making everything a flop,especially Crisis on infinite Earth movie on their way or its gonna be worse than the Injustice movie we got.

Overall its an average movie with rushed ending and rushed story lines. If you don't got anything to watch give it a try else skip it.

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.

DC has always been king when it comes to animation but for some reason the tomorrowverse ( all the movies after JLD Apokolips War) has been a huge disappointment and JL war world is no exception. The movie doesn't feel like a movie, it feels more like an episode. The animation style of this new universe is not my favorite, however, that's very subjective so I wouldn't take points off for their animation style. The writing and plot line in the other hand does take points off for me. The ending seemed rushed and story and character mini arcs didn't really make me fall in love or appreciate any of them more. I think DC doesn't understand that writing good character arcs and plots isn't just important for the movie itself, but also for the IP and brand in general. If you make me love the characters, I can be the loyal customer that I once was, the one that would buy your movie tickets, toys and games no matter what. But that customer has been lost because you guys just keep giving us bad writing and not listening to fans.

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.
