Review of Justice League Dark (2017) by Jacob B — 18 Nov 2018
The R rating doesn't feel necessary since nothing screams "too family-unfriendly for PG-13" and not sure including Batman was really necessary. Yeah, he helps out when he can but he seems to be in this movie just to sell more copies.
And no, the title isn't misleading because this is actually "Constantine & Friends feat. Batman" since "Constantine & Friends" actually are "Justice League Dark".
However, JL Dark, while often saying "magic" as an easy way out of having to explain is still quite enjoyable, at least for me. The action is fun, the voice acting is good, the story is well-told and Deadman actually is funny.
He doesn't overshadow Constantine, though which is good because his VA, Matt Ryan does a good job voicing him. Overall, Justice League Dark is a good introduction to the magical elements of the DCAU.
I'm a bit sad that nobody made a Doctor Strange joke since this came out only a few months after Strange's movie was released in cinemas.
