Part 2 brings in the Super Friends, which Miller reimagines as vigilantes and old soldiers beholden only to justice in a world where the figures of authority are more interested in self-image than public good. That makes Batman the great libertarian hero

Rob's Movie Vault

It's rated PG-13, as was its predecessor, but it's full of gore and pain and trauma...A worthy finale.

Rated: B+

It shows how batman is a hope for gotham, the true feeling that he is the only one who can make the city feel safe. The blood, fight scenes, darkness, is something that makes the animation looks more serious. The final scene ends this with the most perfect final we could have. Absolutely perfect.
