Review of Batman: The Dark Knight Returns, Part 1 (2012) by Charles C — 02 Jan 2013
Quite possibly the best Batman animated feature yet. Appropriately dark and frightening, the narrative takes us back to page one, where Gotham City is at it's most dangerous and desperate, and Batman's triumphs over crime and violence are glorious and inspiring once again.
Batman's character himself is somewhat unnerving, making viewers unsure if years of retirement, frustration, and fear have made him unhinged. Honestly, watching this movie made me feel like a kid again.
This is inspiring, empowering, and recaptures what the Batman is suppose to be. Great voice acting, great writing and an understanding of the fiction make this a must see for any Batman fan.
