batman: under the red hood - 8/10
WOW! What a surprise! This is by far the best Batman-related.. well...
anything.. since Mask of Phantasm and Batman: The Animated Series' heyday. It's even darker than B:TAS at times, in fact, and has the best action scenes I've seen in a Batman movie. The only thing I can fault with this is that John DiMaggio -- you know, BENDER -- does Joker's voice, and it's
TERRIBLE. He sounds like some gruff gangster now, and his laugh is gravelly and ... it doesn't fit the character, and especially doesn't fit the animation/look for the character. Imagine Morgan Freeman doing the voice of a little white girl or something. It's
that ridiculous and dramatic. Luckily, he's not in it very long, and the rest of the movie is as excellent as they come, and blows away all the recent Nolan flicks by miles.
