  1. JLD Apokopolips war: the perfect end to the DCAU@andr3apat1no1868d

    Back in 2020, Warner Bros released the is the fifteenth and final film in the DC Animated Movie Universe, it's directed by Matt Peters and Christina Sotta: Justice League Dark: Apokolips war, which follows the story arc of Darkseid comic. This marks the end of a HUGE movie era that started with Flashpoint Paradox. In this post I'll explain some reseason of why this movie makes the perfect ending to the era of the DC Animation Universe (DCAM), but I won't go deep on the plot trying to not make any spoilers, let get started:

    Plot: after a few attends to conquer earth, Darkseid finally accomplishes his plans, taking the life of some of our beloved heroes, this is the story of how the survivors led by Constantine and Batman try to defeat earth's biggest menace.

    First: the voice cast! I love that Warner Bros. has been casting and re-casting the same actors for animated movies and other film projects. So, we have the same voices all over DC projects. For example, Matt Ryan makes the voicing for Constantine in comic movies but he also impersonates Constante in the CW series. The cast is impeccable, every voice is pretty accurate to the character. I love Rosario Dawson as Wonder Woman.

    Second: John Constantine is the protagonist. Yes, of course, we get to the members of the original Justice League, and the teen titans and even some members of the suicide squad, but the man of the hour is our magician from Vertigo, and this could be a very personal reason but I adore all the Sandman's story from Vertigo. So, watching this not-so-known character as a protagonist gives the story a fresh twist. What I like the most about this, it's that we get a very different Constantine to what we are used to, usually and even in Justice League Dark, John shows his selfish character, tricking others and getting advantage of them, for this movie we have a different Constantine a very human one, who tries to redeem himself for the damage he has done before, especially to Zatanna.

    Third: This is an R-rated movie, this is not a kids movie. The level of violence and crudeness of the movie make it AMAZING, The movie has lots of deaths even in the first minutes it serves lots of purposes because it puts us in the context of how bad things can go and that's something, I think, have been failing in the DCAU movies, as they are designed for kids, so they don't show us how bad and cruel Darkseid and his subordinates can be.

    Fourth: It's a pretty consistent film by itself, naturally if you watch the 14 prior films you'll have lots of background of the arc story BUT you do not necessarily have to see all of them to understand what the movie goes about.

    Fifth: The animation. There's a reason why DCAU movies have always been better than the Marvel ones, in this film we get AWESOME action sequences, and we also get some versions of some characters that we don't see as often, for example: defeated Superman.

    vlcsnap-2021-05-18-01h08m54s868.png

    Sixth: Its humor and wittiness, I know that usually, DC movies are pretty dark and humorless but this movie has some touch of humor, especially humor that comes from irony, that helps us a bit to breathe some fresh air through all its darkness and I think that's very well done, adds a lot to the movie.

    Lastly: the ending. It's a bit predictable because they discuss it early in the movie but I couldn't think of a better ending to this movie and this era. Because there's nothing else that can be done. And even when we know we won't have more of these movies, it sets an interesting left point if they decided to add more movies to the franchise.

    So, in my opinion, even when the movie is not as accurate to the comics as I usually like. This movie is amazing and gives a gold ending to a HUGE era. That's it for today, thanks for coming this far. Bye!

  2. Justice League Dark: Apokolips War / Liga de la Justicia Oscura: Guerra Apokolips: Review@miguelpeliculas2160d

    Esta película cuenta con escenas muy violentas y demasiado gráficas, por lo que no es recomendable que niños pequeños la vean.

    This movie features very violent and overly graphic scenes, so it is not recommended that young children watch it.

    Siempre ha habido una guerra entre los fanáticos de DC comics y Marvel, y déjenme decirles que soy de DC al 100%. El universo cinematográfico de Marvel es una maravilla, no hay comparación en lo absoluto, pero quieren saber donde DC arrasa con su competencia, en las películas animadas, y esta es una muy buena razón.

    There's always been a war between DC comics and Marvel fans, and let me tell you, I'm 100% DC. The Marvel Cinematic Universe is wonderful, there is no comparison at all, but they want to know where DC is wiping out its competition, in animated movies, and this is a very good reason.

    Aunque si tengo que decir que la trama tiene cierto parecido a una película de Marvel estrenada hace muy poco, por lo que pierde un poco el factor sorpresa. Pero se mantiene una pequeña cosa, Batman no es humano, es simplemente el personaje más ridículamente inteligente jamás creado.

    Although if I have to say that the plot has a certain resemblance to a Marvel movie released very recently, so it loses the surprise factor a bit. But one small thing remains, Batman is not human, he is simply the most ridiculously intelligent character ever created.

    La película cuenta con algunas cosas demasiado arriesgadas, como la violencia extrema, vemos cómo destripan y desmiembran a personajes emblemáticos, y sencillamente me gustó, tal vez sería mejor si fuera un poquito menos gráfico, pero parece que los fanáticos lo aman.

    The movie has some too risky things, like extreme violence, we see how they gut and dismember iconic characters, and I just liked it, maybe it would be better if it was a little less graphic, but it seems that fans love it.

    Y cuanto a la historia, la trinidad de DC tiene bastante peso, aunque se le da más protagonismo John Constantine, a Raven y a Damián Wayne (Robin), dándole ese toque "oscuro" a la película.

    And as for the story, the DC trinity has a lot of weight, although John Constantine, Raven and Damián Wayne (Robin) are given more prominence, giving that "dark" touch to the film.

    Otros personajes de la liga apenas tienen momentos para aparecer en increíblemente el escuadrón suicida gana mayor protagonismo, de la mano de Harley Quinn.

    Other characters in the league barely have moments to appear in incredibly the suicide squad gains more prominence, from the hand of Harley Quinn.

    La animación del film es muy correcta y convincente, aunque aquí pienso que quedó un poco a deber, ya que muchas de las escenas de acción no son lo impresionantes que deberían ser.

    The animation of the film is very correct and convincing, although here I think it was a bit of a duty, since many of the action scenes are not as impressive as they should be.

    Para serles sincero, está no es una obra maestra ni mucho menos, pero es una película muy bien hecha, sus 90 minutos pasen muy rápidamente y te vas a entretener mucho ya que es muy interesante y arriesgada.

    To be honest, this is not a masterpiece, far from it, but it is a very well made film, its 90 minutes go by very quickly and you are going to be entertained a lot since it is very interesting and risky.

    Ya por último pero no menos importante, en la trama descubrirás lo realmente asombroso que es Batman, teniendo planes alternativos por cualquier acontecimiento, simplemente un crack!

    Last but not least, in the plot you will discover how truly amazing Batman is, having alternative plans for any event, just a crack!

    I really enjoy watching DC animated movies and this one provided a lot of unique circumstances where our heroes get humiliated by the powerful villain, Darkseid. Everything is normal at the beginning of the story but soon enough, they identified a new threat and when trying to fight it down, the unimaginable happens.

    This movie could be considered as the equivalent of Infinity War & Endgame but in the DC universe, so instead of Thanos we have Darkseid, and against him, we will have a bunch of people with superpowers. This Darkseid guy isn't only very powerful but he also has excellent strategies to neutralize the superheroes leveraging their weak points.

    Watching Superman or Batman in the way they are portrayed in this film could be difficult to forget for the hardcore fans. They all get completely humbled by this superior force and defeating him would seem like something impossible. There are also a few surprises that I will obviously not mention, but the superheroes humbling is very real. Notice something strange about Batman in this picture?

    Since Darkseid is a major villain looking to destroy the planet, smaller villains such as Harley Quinn will join forces against him. We will also see some lesser-known superheroes such as Nightwing, although he only appears for a few seconds while fighting the monsters.

    The animation is good as always. Constantine plays a key role in the story and one of the things that surprised me the most was a sort of fusion between 2 very powerful characters, one of which is supernatural. That part was really cool and the balance begins to tip in favor of the superheroes from thereon. I think I have never seen anything like that in the DC universe. In Dragon Ball, it is normal to see fusions but in DC its super weird.

    This flick is easily a must-watch for fans of the DC universe, especially those who love animated movies. It is entertaining, with good action scenes, plot, and fights. The surprises were also good.

    The best

    • Very fun animated movie.
    • Good thing to see the heroes being challenged this much.

    The worst

    • With so many characters, it would have been interesting to see more character development. Especially seeing how this apocalyptic war affected them. Heroes aren't the same in this movie, and everything changes too quickly.
