Batman: Under the Red Hood Review

Being a big fan of Batman: The Animated Series' dark atmosphere, I had high hopes for this movie. It starts in all the right ways, Joker savagely beating Robin with a crowbar as Batman speeds to save lots of him. Just as Batman leaps to find yourself in the building, it explodes, contributing to their email list of Batman's many regrets. It all feels right; the dark setup, the villains, the town. If only the dialog and story were better...
There are dark happenings afoot in Gotham, which has a mysterious Red Hood taking control of a nearby drug dealers by some sort of circular logic where they've created below they do previously but still screw over their old boss. They were all promised "protection" from Black Mask, however one could feel that one man's protection couldn't survive sufficient to protect a group of drug dealers. And the whole reason he took over nearly all of Gotham's drug ring? To get Joker bailed out of Arkham. What would be easier, breaking Joker away from jail directly, or seizing a whole city's drug trade just to inform them to never sell to kids? It isn't just like the drug dealers stopped dealing whatsoever.
Story breaking logic aside, there's a lot bad dialog here it makes Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III seem to be a piece of classical literature. Nightwing sounds like an 11 years old with the early 20's body. This all leads to a very awkward on-screen relationship where Nightwing constantly vies for Batman's attention. Batman happens to be somewhat homoerotic, as well as the odd range of dialog between Nightwing as well as the Dark Knight only accentuates this.
Some in the fight scenes may be suspect too, with characters getting hurt and even dying from explosions, where Batman just casually gets up and shakes the dirt off his cape. It's like Batman has explosion-proof armor and everyone else is bound to cheap leotard suits. They also try taking some absurdly long falls and continue fighting just as if nothing happened. At least all of the action is busy and entertaining to look at.
Batman's quite angsty too, alternating between his only two moods of angry and toughly sad. He acts like a police man that has seen a lot of and does not give you a shit about telling others anything. With ซีรีย์ฝรั่ง แนวสืบสวน locked right into a continual grimace, he fights crime however he deems necessary, apparently putting Joker in body casts at times, but berating his sidekick for "taking [the bad guy] out". Apparently a Batarang to the shoulder is more of an punishment than the usual body of broken bones in Batman's eyes.
Luckily the dark parts from the story somewhat save this movie. There were ซีรีย์ฝรั่ง 2020 through which individuals were beaten, tortured, and nearly burned alive. It's clear this wasn't suitable for 8 year olds and I'm certain that the teenagers who haven't seen Batman: The Animated Series will eat this up. Unfortunately ซีรี่ย์ฝรั่ง เกี่ยวกับหมอ and bad storytelling can keep this from being a must have addition for a Batman collection.
