Gareth von Kallenbach (980 KP) rated Justice League Dark: Apokolips War (2020) in Movies
May 28, 2020
Warner Bros. Home Entertainment has released the latest Animated DC film with the impressive Justice League Dark: Apokolips War. The film brings a very impressive cast who voice a large collection of DC heroes and villains in an R-rated film that is gripping and engaging.
When Darkseid (Tony Todd) Threatens the Earth; the Justice League must rally to save the day. What really makes the film shine is not only the very large cast; but the fact that so many heroes and villains from the DC universe come into play and at times take actions that viewers would not normally expect from the characters.
There is a complexity to the movie that one would not usually expect as the characters show their flaws and this is not a collection of pristine heroes vs scenery chewing bad guys.
Characters have baggage as well as strong motivations and even doubt which is very refreshing. The story also can be enjoyed by fans who are well versed in the mythos as well as more casual viewers who may not be as up to date on the actions leading up to the film as well as some of the characters.
The story is dark and mature which is reflected in the R-rating which for me is a great thing as Warner has been doing more and more R-rated animated content which is very appealing as there are far fewer restrictions on story content.
The animation is first-rate and the very impressive cast makes this one that fans will not want to miss.

A decent feel good film
Hadn't expected much from this, as the majority of animated films nowadays are terrible, but I was pleasantly surprised. Of course musicals are always going to win me over.
It's a fun, light hearted feel good film that hasn't just been for kids for a change. There's humour, and some for the adults too. The songs are good and I couldn't believe that some of the actors were actually singing (Taron Egerton especially, wow). The animation itself is very good too. The main issue is that it is slightly predictable and could potentially have been released too close to Disney's Zootropolis/Zootopia which are very similar in how the portray animals, even if the plots are miles apart.

Good plot idea
Pretty average
I hadn’t been expecting much from The Boss Baby, and I’m afraid it pretty much lived up to my expectations.
I love Alec Baldwin voicing the baby, and I think the actual plot idea is fairly imaginative and a good take on families having a new baby. The animation was good although I wouldn’t expect any less from Dreamworks. It’s just a shame the rest of the film is a bit of a let down. It’s been made mostly for kids, so I found little to keep me amused (anything vaguely funny had already been shown in the trailer) and the storyline itself was fairly predictable. It’s one of the many watchable but instantly forgettable animated films.

Daleks
Contains spoilers, click to show
First of a new era for doctor who first appearance of Patrick troughton as the doctor and his first against the daleks unfortunately was wiped from the archives back in the 70s but for doctor who fans this is the animated version which makes up for the loss. Good story the doctor discovers that the daleks are pretnding to be servants to a human colony on the planet vulcan so they can get power to to take over the colony but no one believes him the daleks show devious side manipulating the colony into trusting them which is a side them we don't see that often . U can also watch this in colour but I prefer it black and White highly recommend

I grew up on the movie and I always loved it so much so when I finally got around to reading the book my hopes were really high and while the two are pretty much the exact same except certain characters changing and the group not being as big the changes were minimal but I still just loved the movie more. Shocking trust me I know. The movie which is animated is just so full of color and life and wad always just so much fun to watch that it kind of hid the fact that the story is actually incredibly educational. But for me the book just didn't get to that level and did feel a little more along the lines like a history lesson.

King Of The Jungle
Tarzan- I love this movie, this is one of my favorite animation films of all time. Its a classic.
The plot: In this Disney animated tale, the orphaned Tarzan (Tony Goldwyn) grows up in the remote African wilderness, raised by the gentle gorilla Kala (Glenn Close). When a British expedition enters the jungle, Tarzan encounters the beautiful Jane (Minnie Driver) and recognizes that, like her, he's human. Falling in love with Jane, Tarzan is torn between embracing civilization and staying with his gorilla family, which becomes threatened by the ruthless hunter Clayton (Brian Blessed).
Its a excellent and fantastic movie made by Disney before the 2000's. When the 2000's hit went on a downhill slop. But ill get to those movies.
