Batman: Under The Red Hood

 Batman, Nightwing, The Joker, Black Mask, Robin, Red Hood. If any of these characters are making you want to stop reading this review and go and watch them then I don't blame you, this movie is fantastic, probably one of the best animated DC movie to come out. I am of course talking about Batman: Under The Red Hood, the latest animated movie to be released by DC, and I will reiterate again, it is one of the best. It starts with Batman hot on the trial of The Joker who has kidnapped Jason Todd aka Robin The Boy Wonder, Batman gets there too late and the Joker manages to torture and kill Robin. 5 Years later and Batman is reluctant to take on a new partner, but when a new and mysterious enemy calling himself The Red Hood starts to gain a reputation in the criminal world, Batman must team up with Nightwing to take him down. With explosive action and a compelling story, this is a must buy movie. The voice cast in this movie is phenomenal, Bruce Greenwood does a terrific job on his gruff Batman voice but never a Christian Bale, over the top gruff voice that will put you off. Neil Patrick Harris provides the voice for Dick Grayson aka Nightwing, and once again proves why he is the go to guy for a movie like this. Jensen Ackles shines as the voice talent for The Red Hood, and John DiMaggio voices the ever crazy Joker, although he is no Mark Hamill when it comes to the Joker he still does a great job.
