    goood movie, cool 2 watch

    While Superman/Batman Public Enemies was good, it didn't floor me the way all the other DC straight to video features did. Public Enemies had a few lapses in logic (that were brought on I'm sure from the translation from book to screen) but they were made up for by some fun actio...( read more)n. The title was a bit misleading as the movie seemed to be Superman's story and all Batman really seemed to do (outside of coming up with the answers) was dodge fire and throw batarangs. The voicework was okay, animation so-so and the story cut the foreplay and got straight to the point, clocking in at just over an hour. Public Enemies isn't exactly necessary viewing but its not exactly a waste of time either. Upon watching Public Enemies again after reading the graphic novel it came from, it's really not that great. It's really something you should catch if Cartoon Network shows in a few months more than anything.

    A bit of a disappointment. The ideas are all there. Luthor becomes President, encourages superheroes to work for him, before turning the public on Batman and Superman. It could work, if not for the 67 minute running time. This has as much back story and as many interesting ideas ...( read more)as Watchmen, but that got 3 hours worth. DC should take these animated films VERY seriously, because if done right with the stories the fans want, they really will make a whole lotta cash. The vocal performances are grand, but the action just starts and then ends. With villains and heroes out for both Supes and Bats, a lot of characters just show up and fight, before a bit more exposition. An exciting 67 minutes, I just want quantity and quality.

    Another solid entry in DC's direct to home video market films. This one has plenty of action, and a nice political set up, but in its short running time fails to really establish the weight of the fact that these iconic characters are turning on each other. That said, viewers n...( read more)ot familiar with the original source material might not mind so much.

    Review to come shortly.

    Batman is all about story, Superman is all about action. Unfortunallity, this movie is all about action and very little story. This is a decent 67 minutes, but you get alot of heros and villians than you can shake a stick at. In fact, I could use a few less, as there were some...( read more) that I couldnt identify as the writers really broke out the complete roster of villains and heros. It was good to hear Batman: TAS Kevin Conroy giving his voice to Batman, and Clancy Brown as the untrustworthy Lex Luthor. Save yourself the money, rent the film, then watch "The Batman/Superman Movie", as its more true to the heros and isn't as quick paced, which really is a minus to B/S Public Enemies.

    Loved this one. So many cool comic heroes and villains from the DC Universe. Really cool to see them in action and on the TV.

    I wasn't as crazy about this one as I was the original Batman/Superman movie. The artwork they put in it was not nearly as good (and the women's boobs were SOOOOO distracting!). On top of that, the whole "Comet coming down at Earth" thing has been so over-done it's running laps a...( read more)round itself. On a good note, though, they did show some of the greatest villains in DC history (many I remember from those cheesy Super Friends cartoons) and the fight scenes were pretty damn cool. The planning and the plot for this movie were both very much under-done, but it was enough that Kevin Conroy returned as Batman once again.
