Batman: The Killing
Joke (2016)
Directed by Sam Liu
this animated comic book adaptation has voices from Kevin Conroy,
Mark Hamill, Tara Strong and Ray Wise. Eventually the Joker has a
plan to prove that anyone can be driven to criminal insanity just
like him.
It was always going to
require extra material to draw out this one issue story to a full
feature length but the writing really bungles it here. The prologue
introduces an unnecessary sexual relationship between Batman and
Batgirl while the film some how manages to drag despite being just
over 70 minutes long. Mark Hamill is the clear highlight of the voice
acting but the rest of the casting is pretty uninspired.
2/5
