Review of Batman: The Dark Knight Returns, Part 1 (2012) by Jack G — 02 Mar 2013
I've gotta say that this was just really awesome and lived up to the title about being dark. Just for the sake of saying it, it felt that it sort of had a mix of elements from Batman Begins and The Dark Knight Rises.
Though, unlike those films, this one is fairly a bit less realistic. And it focuses not only on Batman, it also focused more about Commissioner Gordon which was just satisfying and awesome. The movie was also a bit on the slow side with a slow pacing.
And another thing, if you're a fan of the Batman lore then you're going to really love the ending leaving off with one of the best cliffhangers. One more thing that might not work for the movie is for the viewers to not know the basic background story of Batman which would really be confusing.
Overall I'd give this a solid 4 out of 5.
