Batman: the Killing Joke review
I just finished watching Batman: the Killing Joke in a theater. Right away, I want to state that it is a great vindication to have a DC animated movie finally in theaters. DC animation has been very strong over the years. It's missed occasionally. Justice League: War and Son of Batman weren't particularly strong, but even for those low points, they still delivered as well as any live-action movie did. The last time this happened was for Batman: Mask of the Phantasm, which was ok in its own right, but it was really a movie of its time for what superheroes were back then. Mask of the Phantasm was a bit of an adolescence of animated movie superheroes. It acknowledged that it had grown, but it still kept itself appropriate for young audiences. With the rise of superhero movies in live-action becoming really a whole new monster now and the quality of the Arkham games, we've seen the maturity level of superheroes in the media truly grow.
