While Batman feature films generally always have a major romantic subplot it is unusual to see one in animation so that's nicely unexpected (& although the Vanessa Williams-esque ballad played over the credits is appropriately 90s, it feels out of place). There's also an always fun Joker, a very well done twist & having Bats become a pseudo King Kong is fresh. Not explaining what happened to the Joker is also unusually "mature" but I still would never rank this as anything more than okay.

Mark Hamill's Joker is great and everything else works, but it falls a little short because it feels like just an extended episode of the show.

Top badass moment? Proof that great films for adults can also be cartoons. So here we see Batman showing the Saudis how to deal with annoying drones, by catching them in his cloak. And rich totty Andrea Beaumont joins the dozens of other people who’ve worked out who he really is. (She looks great in the black one-piece too.) And talking of secret identities, I’m pretty sure the Joker is actually a grown-up Eric Cartman. 4 decapitations (of giant animatronic dudes), no cats or chainsaws.

It probably won't win over any new fans to the franchise. Mask of the Phantasm is dark, thrilling, beautifully animated and contains some of Mark Hamill's best Joker voice work.

This 75-minute effort has drawn much praise from Caped Crusader fans but there's very little that sets it aside from any standard episode of the animated series. There are a couple of decent action sequences and Hamill's voice-work is as strong as ever, but it's completely predictable, features too many uninteresting flashbacks and, quite irksomely, never discloses the villain's fate at the end.

BATMAN: MASK OF THE PHANTASM embraces its neo-noir roots in focusing on Bruce Wayne's doomed relationship with an old flame. The romance is treated with such depth and sensitivity, in fact, that it overshadows the mystery plot, which tends to rely on flashbacks and retcons of well-known origins. Even so, this is a BATMAN film that provides a more complete package--in tone, in character, in emotion--than most of its live-action contemporaries.
