Batman Unlimited: Animal Instincts (No figurine) (DVD)

Overall Good Movie - This is directed at kids, but it's not dumbed down. It's only 77 minutes long, but it doesn't really seem like it when watching it and is made up for in the extras: a handful of DC Nation shorts and 2 episodes of Batman: Brave & the Bold. The shorts contain a cool episode featuring Batmongoose foiling the Croker's plans and some Japanese influenced animations of Batman vs. Catwoman & Bane (which are cool visually, but I don't really get the point - but that's just me) Also one with Plasticman and the story of how Eel O'Brian got away from the Batman. The 2 episodes of Brave & the Bold are mixed. I actually like the 2nd one better, Batman goes to the future to save the Flash from Professor Zoom. One of the more intelligent episodes from this series. The 1st episode has Batman injured and out of commission so his hero friends become Batman to look after Gotham in his absence to mixed results. I hope you don't mind that I mostly reviewed the Special Features, but everyone else did the movie - you can read those reviews for yourself.

For all my "hardcore" DC movie lovers this one I would add to the collection. This one is nothing related truly to the DC universe as the others, it is its own story with a cool cast of good and bad guys to match. To give a good idea, it matches Justice League kind of feel, the art style and even story kind of. Batman is voiced by the same guy who did the last Batman Arkham game, not sure if you're a fan or not... But he did pretty well.In short this is a good movie, not great, not bad either. It fits a purpose as easy to watch and enjoy and has it's own story without sacrificing the characters or it's universe and roots to all characters. I'd check it out. To buy is up to you, I did take a chance and bought first but I dug it. If like all things Batman related and looking to add to your collection, feel free to nab this one. Hope you like.

I don't know why everyone is hating on this so much. It was a lot of fun. This is definitely a cartoon. There are even some cuts where I half expected a commercial to pop up. It's nice that they're doing something for the kids. I can watch this with my nephew and not have to worry about it being too adult. Don't get me wrong, I'm a big fan of the DC animated stuff. Although maybe not the last couple as much, but still. I know some people were complaining that it seemed like they're just trying to sell toys, but isn't that what Saturday mornings were all about in the 80's. If you're going to watch this just keep in mind what it is and have fun with it. Plus it has nothing to do with any continuity and it has Nightwing and Red Robin, so..

So much fun to watch! Wish they bring this series bac.

This Batman movie is really for the younger, elementary and younger set, but it is also made to sell toys, which sort of reminds me of the notorious 1997 Batman And Robin 2 hour toy commercial.Movie only lasts a little over 1 hour, but is fast paced enough that you don't keep on looking at the clock or you cell phone for the movie to end.Personally, I prefer Batman: The Animated Series, or the Christopher Nolan Batman movies. But, this will do to help entertain any of your young relatives that can't handle the likes of The Dark Knight Trilogy yet..

What a breath of fresh air, this show bucks the current trend of the "dark,brooding,cranky,angry,superhero." And I couldn't be happier.THE GOOD- fantastic, fluid animation with deep rich color.(by the way, I got the blue ray version) They use a lot of different heroes and villains, it's not just Batman's show! As for special features we get a 10 minute Penguin featurette, 10 DC Nation shorts, and 2 Brave and the Bold episodes. THE BAD- ...uh, there's nothing bad here, except the special features could have been a little beefier, but in closing if you like DC characters and sweet animation I honestly don't see anything to complain about, hope they make more.

I have to say I thought this movie lacked a lot. First they made the flash into an idiot. In the scene in the bat cave there using science and the flash had a look of confusion on his face. The they tell him to sit down and let the grown ups talk. the first problem I have there is the flash was a scientist. So he would not only understand what there talking about but most likely be able to help better than Nightwing could. Second Depending on wich flash it was. He would have been older than Nightwing if it was Barry or Wally. The next problem I had was in the scene with Nightwing and Red robin in the cave of bats. Nightwing makes a comment that Red robin fears caves when isnt His hide out a cave? The problem there is he talks like he doesnt know. when Nightwing was batmans side kick before red robin. The next problem I had was the flying cop cars. they made it to Batman beyond and not classic batman. The finial problem I had was them putting green arrow into this and not have the real chemistry Green arrow and Batman had as fun rivalry. they acted more like partners. So in all I say the movie was a fail for the classic readers and a real work up for the show biz indistry to get 2 super heroes who got tv shows into a cartoon with batman just to make money.

An enjoyable OAV batman story set further ahead than the animated series but before Batman Beyond. Doesn't have the depth or character development but still fun. The DC Nation Shorts that are included as extras are really great and the Batman of Shanghai shorts were amazing. MORE! MORE! MORE!

Brought for my grandson he loves it.

good

Anders als die anderen animierten / Zeichentrick DC Comics ála Red Hood, Bad Blood, oder The Dark Knight Returns ist meines Erachtens nach die Batman Unlimited Reihe eher für die jüngeren Zuschauer geeignet.Das ist natürlich nur meine Meinung und muss nicht zwingend stimmen.

Eine gute, neue Ansicht von Batman. Batman hat sich in den letzten 30 Jahren immer wieder gewandelt und dies ist eine Story davon. Nicht super, aber gut genug für einen Batman-Ableger.

it's a gift
