September 22, 2009Great movie. So far DC has proved that there animated movies are superior to Marvel's. In fact Marvel should take a page out of DC's book and make animated movies based on famous story lines. The animation in this one is top notch as well making it look like the style of the Darw...( read more)

July 25, 2009A pretty decent animation flick, Justice League: The New Frontier is based upon the graphic novel published by DC Comics, and shows a very mature plot with a different vision of superheros is in the same vein of Watchmen but made for kids.
