{4.5\/5} “‘Why are you running?’ ‘Fun. You could use a little fun.'” — Batman & Catwoman<\/p>\n
Batman: The Long Halloween<\/strong>, released in 2021 (in 2 parts)<\/p>\n When Carmine Falcone’s nephew is murdered, Captain Gordon brings Batman and Harvey Dent together to try to find out what’s going on. Falcone doesn’t care who pulled the trigger — he blames new DA Dent. Falcone blows up Dent’s house but he wasn’t inside. Meanwhile, Catwoman shows Batman where Falcone is hiding a huge stash of money.<\/p>\n This is an animated movie based on the comic book.<\/p>\n The animation has a bit of an old fashioned feel, which is perfectly fine.<\/p>\n Catwoman and Harvey Dent have great roles in this story. The Joker, Poison Ivy, and Scarecrow also show up for some fun. Solomon Grundy, a Hulk-like figure, is also here — I haven’t seen him before.<\/p>\n Batman makes 1 or 2 mistakes, as he’s only human.<\/p>\n It’s pretty serious overall, and includes big changes in the lives of the characters.<\/p>\n Stars the voices of Jensen Ackles, Robin Atkin Downes, Katee Sackhoff, and Naya Rivera. Directed by Chris Palmer (Superman: Man of Tomorrow<\/strong>). The mysterious music is by Michael Gatt.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" {4.5\/5} “‘Why are you running?’ ‘Fun.
