Review of Batman: Gotham Knight (2008) by Sam C — 08 Jul 2012

"Batman Gotham Knight" has six animated shorts and is a very fun time.

Have I got A Story For You.

4/5.

A Group of kids tell their stories to each other about the time they saw the Batman. Even though all their versions are different they all connect to each other. I thought this story was great and very fun to watch. Seeing all the different versions of Batman was very cool and the action was solid.

Crossfire.

4/5.

As two policemen drop off an inmate to an asylum they talk about their opinions on Batman. After the drop off they get caught in the middle of a firefight and only one person could possibly get them out. One of the best stories out of all six because of a great story and some exciting action.

Field Test.

3.5/5.

Lucius Fox creates some new gadgets for Bruce Wayne/Batman so he can test them. He soon finds a chance to test them out but are they to powerful? A fine little story that had a decent story with a great ending to it.

In Darkness Dwells.

4.5/5.

Scarecrow and Killer Croc have teamed up and captured a priest leading the Dark Knight to go out and stop them. A great story that included to great villains that were put to good use and thrilling from the start to the finish.

Working Through Pain.

3/5.

In this story we see flashbacks of Bruce Wayne's training as he crawls through the sewers with a bullet wound. I found this story the least interesting out of all six but I did find it a bit enjoyable and a little bit interesting.

Deadshot.

4/5.

Deadshot is a very skilled assassin who never misses his target and is assigned to go for a target in Gotham City and Batman must stop him at all cost. A great story but a tad bit predictable but it wasn't that huge of an issue, it was still fun to follow and watch.

Not one story on this DVD is bad and that's what makes this such a great DVD. What makes these stories so good is that they had a great team working on all these stories. One of the many things that makes this collection great is that they were all made with different teams and they were all great teams. All the stories are written great and have amazing animation, also some shots in some of the stories were just amazing to look at. The one thing that I loved about "Batman Gotham Knight" is Kevin Conroy is the voice of Bruce Wayne who voiced Batman in the animated series and his voice is just perfect for Batman so he is great in this. If you are a huge Batman fan "Batman Gotham Knight" is something that you should check this out.
