Highly Overrated But Still Good

Excellent adaptation.

This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

The earth is threatened by an evil counterpart to the Justice League. Lex Luthor comes to our earth from a parallel one with a warning about how everything is a stake and that it must be stopped by all means. The setup about parallel universes and the travel between them is pretty cool, although it was explored a little more in the later JL movie The Flashpoint Paradox which did it to perfection. Crisis On Two earths does a great job, too, especially near the finale with a great amount of tension increasing by each second. How the League plays off of their counterpart is cool with all their similarities being used against each other both superpowers and personalities. Ultraman is deliciously badass, Jimmy Olson from Ultraman's earth is cleverly different from the one we know, Owlman is just like Batman, but with much more radoical schemes than Bruce Wayne's Batman. Speaking of him, for the first time I expirienced a disappointing performance by an actor voicing Batman. I'm sorry, but William Baldwin's Batman lacked the same weighty volume as many of the other actors who has taken on the role the years, and that just kept hanging as a reminder through out the movie.But if that wasn't the case, Justice League: Crisis on Two Earths had been a 10, because the other voice actors did amazing jobs with James Woods' Owlman and Gina Torres' Superwoman being the highlights.

When the Lex Luthor of another reality comes to earth from his earth (where he is a hero), he enlists the Justice League to come help him bring freedom, peace and justice to his world. One problem: the Crime Syndicate of that world doesn't like this, so they come to earth and... you get the idea. A really enjoyable movie.

When a good Lex Luthor from a parallel universe travels to see the Justice League they are forced to face their equals in a battle that truly could mean the end of the world should they fail.Featuring all your favorites and a few additional names making little more than cameo appearances this follows on from the Justice League television series though is a tad darker.The story is great, the execution however is exactly what you'd expect. It looks okay, sounds okay, everything is exactly that.......okay, but nothing more.Voice actors for this one include Mark Harmon, William Baldwin & James Woods who are really quite poor. James Woods who plays Owl Man sounds bored through the entire thing and Baldwin simply isn't Batman material.If you enjoy DC animations you may enjoy this but this is certainly not one of their strongest outings.The Good: Interesting storyThe Bad:Baldwin's voice doesn't suit BatmanProceeds to make Batman look remarkably weakThings I Learnt From This Movie:If Batman and Owlman are the same person from different dimensions why do they have different voices?Superwoman is not PG

I somewhat enjoyed "Public Enemies", and "Under the Red Hood" is by far the best feature ever, but this edition really could have used some work. It has the same problems as a lot of its predecessors, delivering solely action and a pretty basic plot outline of the much deeper graphic novel. This was pathetic to me, because the premise was pretty promising. Not only that, but Batman spends 90% of his time in the movie getting his ass handed to him, which was insulting really. Chris North, Mark Harman, and William Baldwin, all were decent, but nothing compared to Kevin Conroy or Tim Daly. Although give credit where credit is due concerning James Woods, who did pretty damn good throughout as Owlman. If you're around 10 this will be the best thing you've ever seen, but if you were born in the 90s or older then it will pass off as mediocre.
