Under the Red Hood…is a Movie Better Than Its Origin
“Under the Red Hood” was originally a storyline from DC Comics involving the return of Batman’s long-dead sidekick, and second Robin, Jason Todd. Todd was beaten to death by The Joker and then blown up in a warehouse. This was one of the few deaths in comic books that actually ... |

A Great Surprise!
When I first red about a new Batman animated film, I'll openly admit I was a little afraid. In a post "Dark Knight" world, I didn't think a new animated feature could captivate my attention. And well, I was quite wrong.Literally everything that I disliked about the last "all Batman" ... |

Batman: Under The Red Hood Blu-Ray Review

Colder Than The Bat Cave
Batman is really in vogue these days. Since the Dark Knight, it seems that everyone is in love with the caped crusader. With that in mind, it's no surprise that DC has given Batman a role in many of their recent straight-to-video animated adventures. Batman: Under the Red Hood is ... |

Terrible Concept brought to animation
Personally, I thought that the Red Hood was a terrible concept in the comics and it shows even in the animated version. Dick Grayson suffered from the fact that he was effectively trapped as the kid sidekick of Batman. He lasted for many years but eventually, the editors decided that ... |

Undone by some serious flaws
Well, for the most part Under the Red Hood was a very faithful adaptation of the comic arc by Judd Winick. That's in its favor. It's got most all of the major events from the comic, like the fight against the Amazo robot, and Jason launching the RPG into Black ... |

Batman = Gold
Most movie goers tend to dismiss these animated movies as "cartoons". I for one never really got into watching them until Batman. They're just as good as "human-movies" if not even better. Although I am NOT saying this touches Batman Begins or the Dark Knight ;-) There's a great amount ... |

Building a Legacy...
It's amazing that, more often than they should, the big screen adaptations of our favorite super heroes can fail so grandly. One hero that's actually managed to succeed more often than not in these ordeals is the caped crusader. Tim Burton's original effort, Christopher Nolan's latest installments; cinema has mostly ... |

A Dark Look at Batmans greatest failure
This is possibly one of the best animated Batman movies since Mask of the Phantasm. It does come up short though in certain places. This is defiantly a very dark vision of the Batman Mythos. The films plot revolves around the “Death ... |

Unda tha 'Hood
Alot better than I expected . The animation is top notch and Batman looks broodish and cool as always. Also, Nightwing has got a pretty decent sized role in this movie. It reminded me alot of Batman The Animated Series, but it was different enough to become its own animal. ... |

One of the best Batman animated movies
You need to have this in your collection, if you're at all familiar with the Batman. Bringing the Red Hood, Jason Todd story, Death in the Family, Black Mask, and Nightwing stories together clearly deserves praise for Judd Winick's writing. Balancing a great and extremely clever story with badass action ... |

closer to the comics take on the character
Batman and Robin is a title that leaps out at you, but also the most devisive aspect of what makes Batman work or not. Why would really the worlds greatest detective put a young boy in harms way when he himself was traumatized at that age? That is a mistake ... |
