The premise and effort to show Batman's development was ambitious. However, the result did not fully meet the intent. I would have preferred more story development in the segments. "Have I Got a Story to Tell You" was unnecessary and drawn in a strange and juvenile manner. Batman is made to look more like a bird than a bat in "Field Test" as the artist's interpretation of Batman's uniform gives him a "Robin" look. Overall, the project is good and Batman fans, however critical, should be at least partially pleased.

But still quite awesome! Great writing, variety of look and tone, but interlocking plot elements unify the whole. And good on the producers for getting Kevin Conroy to voice Batman, the original voice from the beloved 90s animated Batman (and Batman Beyond, Justice League, and JLU). If you're a Batman fan, you'll find something to love here, including key episodes from The Animated Series and good commentaries.

This rendition of the Dark Knight is another great instalment of the Batman sagas. However, because the film was portayed by six different directors and six different art styles, the mish-mash was a little obscure. All in all, a worthwhile purchase. Definatly a must have for any Bat-fanatic.

Anime+Batman=Great Idea
Anime+Batman+Varied Styles=Missed Opportunity
The idea is exciting, but DC should have stuck with one anime director and artistic style to keep a cohesive flow to the film. The writing is actually pretty good and the character development for Bruce Wayne & Detectives Ramirez/Allen is acceptable, but it just feels unsettling to watch it in varying episodes.
Also, Kevin Conroy does a good job not just using his Batman:TAS voice, but I still feel they should have gone with a younger actor to give this project its own continuity.
I wasn't even going to buy it, but Target offered it with Batman Beyond: The Movie added on to the disc, which made it worth the price.
If you haven't bought Justice League: The New Frontier, I would purchase that first, it is the only truly enjoyable DC Universe animated feature out right now.
