Justice League vs the Fatal Five (2019)

The animation style is the same as it was the JLU TV series and sadly in order to really enjoy and understand this new movie from DC animation, you would have had to be atlest a little familiar with the show and would also help if you had watched or remembered the episodes that this movie draws from.

As a stand alone film the story starts out good but then rushes to the finish. The 2 main characters arcs are cut short and left with a feeling that you missed a chuck of the movie. Ms Cruz and Star Boy both had a lot of potential and were very relatable but I guess time got in the way and the growth of those 2 was cut short. A real shame, otherwise this should have been a mini series or something.

In short, a swing and a miss.

Fmovies: Finally after the amazing Reign of Superman, DC has came up with another good movie.. I just got it today but don't worry I won't spoil it for you. In short this movie is a take on the old justice league, so you will find a lot of nostalgia in it. It may also bring you some old, golden memories.

The pacing of this movie is perfect and it's a lot of fun watching. Go watch it on some online streaming service. It's worth it.

As a remainder it doesn't have Martian manhunter, hawkgirl. So I miss them a lot. Hope I will see them in future...

DC had some bad cartoons lately, such as "Batman Ninja", "The Killing Joke", "Batman and Harley Quinn" and "Suicide Squad: Hell to Pay".

The DC animated universe is what made me like Batman and Superman in the first place. These iconic characters are so well defined in those cartoons, that makes most (if not all) live action movies pale in storytelling.

25 years after Batman the animated series, we still get interesting stories full of action, new character introductions and character build. I remember not liking the simplistic art style back then, but I ended up loving it.

This movie gives you a glimpse of the far future of the JLA and shows a new hero overcoming a trauma event, self sacrifice for the greater good, what is to be a hero and actually gets very emotional near the end.

The villains had a pretty solid plan which is rare in superhero movies. Usually when time travel is involved you can simply say "I will go to a previous time and fix everything". But here the villains would have destroyed everything in the future, so, I'm glad there is no loophole in the movie's logic.

The villains also remind me of a stronger Avangers team, since they have a Hulk that shoots lasers and a Thor with an axe that cuts everything in half.

There is only one thing I didn't like. I wanted to know more of the villains' arc and motivations, but when an animated movie is 1.5h long, you know they only had so much time to present backstories.

This is one of the best examples of DC's animated movies. I hope they never stop making such good movies.

Justice League vs the Fatal Five fmovies. Justice League Vs The Fatal Five is a great DC animated movie with good voice acting, animation, action and humour. Great to see the Justice League unlimited animation style back. Only negative is that Wonder Woman is sidelined (rest of the Justice League have a good amount of screen time).

Known settings and characters meet some of the newer qualities found in characters that were expressed in the more recent DC Universe movies.

Though, overall way less graphic and violent than the things of recent times. It is enjoyable to see a new green lantern getting some screen time as well, the character is quite likeable.

The villains are a tad bit one-dimensional (aren't they always?) but the writing is good and the overall vibe one is left with after watching it is a positive one, so this movie earned its 8 stars from me.

This one flew under the radar for me, I've only just learned of it's existence so there was no build up or excitement.

It tells the story of villains from the future traveling through time for an unscrupulous plot and the Justice League stepping up to stop them.

So basically what I'm trying to say is it's pretty generic stuff with absolutely no surprises. Wait that's not entirely true, it's full of very odd choices from the DC Universe. I mean seriously, a big character in this is Mr Terrific.............Mr..........Terrific! I understand them wanting to broaden peoples horizons but this seems like a weird way of doing it.

Animated in the kiddie friendly Saturday morning style it's basically exactly that. A tad more violent and with one single expletive that isn't enough to separate it from what you'd see during kiddie time on the weekend. It's essentially like a 2 parter episode, and not a very interesting one at that.

Sure this isn't the worst, in fact it's not even the worst they've made lately but that's pretty much because they played it safe and made something so generic it's hard to call it bad.

Watchable for big animated DC fans but nothing to rush to see.

The Good:

Meh

The Bad:

Stock scream

Interesting choice of characters

Generic, cliched, did I mention generic?
