Mask Of The Phantasm is a direct spinoff from the 1990's animated television show and alike the show was extremely well recieved. Though set in modern day it has that 1940's look and feel that made the Tim Burton films so memorable.
Here we have the caped crusader tackling the Joker, gangsters & a mysterious new vigilante. And you know how it works, vigilantes are only okay if its Batman if it's not then he has to take them down because reasons.
Sadly I don't see the appeal, though I don't consider Mask Of The Phantasm to be bad I don't understand why so many hold it in such high esteem.
Hamill & Conroy stand out as usual as outstanding voice actors, the animation is on point but the story simply did nothing to grab me.
Passable stuff, but underwhelming for me.
The Good:
Mark Hamill
Kevin Conroy
The Bad:
Messy plot
Things I Learnt From This Movie:
Phantasm looks awesome
Phantasm is incredibly incompetent
It's so sad that Hamill will never play a live action Joker
