- Batman is wrongly implicated in a series of murders of mob bosses actually done by a new vigilante assassin.
- An old flame of Bruce Wayne's strolls into town, re-heating up the romance between the two. At the same time, a mass murderer with an axe for one hand begins systematically eliminating Gotham's crime bosses. Due to the person's dark appearance, he is mistaken for Batman. Now on the run, Batman must solve the mystery (Which eventually involves The Joker in a neat plot-twist) and deal with the romance between him and Andrea Beaumont, which is more than meets the eye.
- I honestly had not seen this movie until a friend of mine recommended it to me. As a die-hard fan of the 90s show as well as Batman in general, I had to check this one out. And this film delivered way beyond my expectations. Even though many will brush it aside due to it being an animated film, this movie has enough atmosphere and depth to match up to its live-action counterparts. The animation itself is just as incredible as the TV series', obviously seeing as it is was made by the same cast and crew for the most part. The artwork is still the gorgeously dark color pallet used for the show, and to extremely good effect. The score by Shirley Walker still uses the good old Danny Elfman theme as its base but she goes in a lot of directions with it. Every second of the music is just ominous, heroic and ultimately awesome.<br/><br/>The voice acting is pure bad-ass, with the always appreciated Kevin Conroy as the Dark Knight, and Mark Hamill as the demented Joker.Both do superbly. Also, Efrem Zimbalist Jr. is great as Alfred and Dana Delany, who would go on to voice Lois Lane in the "Superman" TV series also headed by Bruce W. Timm, does excellently as well. The story offers plenty of great dialogue, speaking of which, it's simply put one of the most outstanding pieces of writing I've seen in the animation genre. The story being told is dark, involving and gives the characters greatly needed depth. It moves briskly, but never fails to build tension until it finally answers the question of just who is behind the grisly murders. Along the way, you will see Bruce Wayne's trail to become the Caped Crusader in one of the best tellings of this particular tale. Few of the live action Batman films have touched upon the hero's origin's as so in this film. All of the characters are very interesting, and all are intertwined beautifully. Hamill will always be the Joker to me. The best line in the entire movie, to me anyways for purely sentimental reasons, would be when Joker viciously says "Don't touch me, old man!", but then almost light heartedly and comically adds "I don't know where you've been." It's just great to see.<br/><br/>So, in the end, the movie has great artwork, solid characterization, a very intriguing mystery storyline all backed by a thundering and magnificent score. I won't spoil the conclusion of it all, because I'm sure there are plenty of others out there who have yet to experience this great movie.
- It's very sad that this film was overlooked and ignored. Although I do find guilty pleasure in the live action Batman films, this is by far out does them all.<br/><br/>The plot is intelligent and full of twists and turns, flawlessly combining the mob mystery with the love story it effects. All of the characters are very well developed, relatable (well the ones that intend to be), and entertaining. Even the score is awesome.<br/><br/>The voice acting is perfect. Kevin Conroy is THE only voice who should play Batman. And Mark Hamill is the best Joker ever. period.<br/><br/>This film stays so true to the original characters of the comic book that it is the only rival I would put against Spiderman (2002) as the best comic-to-film adaptation to date.<br/><br/>My only complaint is that the animation in this film really isn't a step up from the TV show that spawned it's style. I LOVE the simplistic, geometric looking style that Warner Bros. gave this adaptation of Batman, I just wish a little more care was taken with it.<br/><br/>Anybody who is remotely a fan of Batman, or the animated TV show, should see this great movie.
- Yes and no. Phantasm is loosely based on the character "the Reaper" from the comic-book miniseries BATMAN: YEAR TWO: FEAR THE REAPER, written by Mike W. Barr; art by Alan Davis, Todd McFarlane, Mark Farmer and Paul Neary. However, the actual character of Andrea Beaumont is original to the movie. Bruce Wayne has been the Batman for ten years when the film opens, putting him in his early to mid-30s. As a comic-book character, Batman's first appearance was in DETECTIVE COMICS #27 (May, 1939). Yes and no. Batman discovers that the Joker was originally one of mobster Salvatore "Sally" Valestra's goons; however, anyone in this film who knew him from the old days is dead by the end except for the Joker himself--and possibly city councilman Arthur Reeves. As Valestra's thug, Joker is revealed to be the murderer of Carl Beaumont--Andrea Beaumont's father. The comic-book Joker was originally revealed to have been the Red Hood--the otherwise nameless leader of a gang of crooks; in Alan Moore's graphic novel "The Killing Joke," he was only an unnamed engineer and struggling comedian. In Tim Burton's film Batman (1989), the Joker was gangster Jack Napier and also (in this film series only!) the killer of Bruce Wayne's parents. In Batman: The Animated Series the Joker's true identity was Jack Napier as well, as shown in the episode "Dreams In Darkness." However later the episode "Beware the Creeper" from The New Batman Adventures rectified this by stating that Jack Napier was merely one of several aliases. Gotham City is a fictional U.S. port city located on the north-eastern Atlantic coast. It was originally a stand-in for New York City, but has also been likened to other crime-ridden urban centers such as Chicago and Detroit. Some sources have placed Gotham City in the state of New Jersey; however, this cannot be considered definitive.In the context of Batman: The Animated Series, the second (1993-1994) season episode "Avatar" shows a map that places Gotham City in the location of the real-world New York City. In addition, the direct-to-video animated movie SubZero (1998) gives Barbara Gordon's street address as Gotham City, NY; and gives a ZIP code (10025) and telephone area code (212) that are assigned to New York City. The current DC Universe version of Gotham City is actually a small island connected to the mainland by a series of bridges and tunnels. The east and south sides of Gotham face the Atlantic Ocean. The city is further divided by the Sprang River (named for Dick Sprang) on the northern end and the Finger River (for Bill Finger) to the south. Tiny Blackgate Isle to the south-east is home to Blackgate Maximum Security Penitentiary. Blackgate is replaced by Stonegate Peniteniary in the animated series "Batman" (1992) and its spin-offs. One assumes that the filmmakers wanted to keep the focus of this story squarely on Bruce Wayne and Andrea Beaumont. However, there are at least two in-film explanations. 1) Dick Grayson was away at college and Bruce didn't want to involve him in such a personal case. 2) The movie novelization by Geary Gravel has Dick overseas, training with one of Bruce's old martial arts masters. One can assume that Harley was cooling her heels in Arkham Asylum during this story. Harley's voice actress Arleen Sorkin did have an uncredited role as "Miss Bambie." a5c7b9f00b
