Jithin K Even though the movie is the adaptation of The origin story of Batman, it's really more about Gordon and Gotham and why Batman becomes necessary. The corruption at the heart of Gotham is the centre here and it is explored so well that even the hardcore fans of Batman's codes may forgive if he gets down to killing some. Gordon has never been as in-centre or as badass in anything else I've seen. I read the graphic novel a few years ago but forgot most of it which helped me enjoy this a bit more I think. This has some of the same issues I have with a lot of DC animated movies which always limit themselves with the way the animation and voice acting is directed but this did feel better than most of such DC films in that aspect. Bryan Cranston is such a great voice for Gordon. But it did have the potential to be even better if the animation and voice acting were treated more like a bigger film. But still, it's an incredible exploration of the corruption of society. This really reminds me of Serpico too. How many Serpico's come out successful with their ideals and how many get crushed by the system or just disappear entirely? Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/01/24 Full Review Anderson O Batman Year one is amoung the masterclasses in expectional origins of Batman and observatory in his earlier days of learn to be a crime fighter to change the criminal underworld in clean up Gotham City. A smooth clean animation style of noir as well. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/04/24 Full Review Johnathon W Solid adaptation of the classic comic that, while well-crafted, suffers from sticking too close to the source material. The voice cast is excellent across the board, with Bryan Cranston superb as Jim Gordon, delivering the right mix of grit and pathos for the hardened cop. Behind the camera, the filmmakers do a solid job sticking to the classic story but a bit too much. As a result, the film is barely over an hour and plays more like an animated comic over being a true adaptation. What's worse, they cut the best line from Batman during the SWAT raid. Overall, a solid watch but not one of DC Animation's best. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/27/24 Full Review matthias s "Batman: Year One" successfully captures the gritty and realistic tone of Miller's comic book, with its moody visuals and morally complex characters. The voice acting is solid, with Bryan Cranston bringing depth and nuance to the role of Jim Gordon, and Ben McKenzie providing a suitably brooding performance as Batman/Bruce Wayne. However, the film's fidelity to the source material can also be a drawback at times, as it can feel overly compressed and rushed in certain scenes, and some of the dialogue and voiceover narration can be heavy-handed and melodramatic. Also, while the animation is generally solid, there are a few moments of awkward movement or stiff facial expressions that detract from the immersion. "Batman: Year One" is a worthwhile watch for fans of the Batman mythos, and a commendable attempt to adapt one of the most influential Batman stories ever told. While it may not be perfect, it's still a compelling and engaging take on the Dark Knight's early days in Gotham City. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 11/09/23 Full Review Andrius y un gran elenco de voces en un filme con una animación preciosa ,que logra juntar todos los factores clave en una cinta de batman y captar la esencia del cómic en el que es basada . Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 04/02/23 Full Review Carl J Should be called 'Gordon' 'Batman: Year one' was an enjoyable Batman animation. It wasn't my favourite one I have seen but it was still good in its own way. For me, this one seemed more about Gordon rather than Batman. The animation looked great, one of the better animations I have seen in that sense. There was only a few fight scenes (which were good) but I just wanted more. I wanted to see the Batmobile and stuff like that. Also Catwoman was kinda just there, what was she doing? I'll admit I haven't read any Batman comics for years and have only just started watching a few of the animated films, maybe that's why I didn't like this one so much. Overall it was still good but just not as good as other ones I have seen. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Read all reviews
