    I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

    "Batman: The Animated Series" certainly set new standards for all future superhero adaptations on the small screen. The series isn't really suitable for really young viewers, perhaps ages of about 12 or older. It's not as if the violence is graphic or extreme. It is the tone and style of "Batman: The Animated Series" which makes the series more adult. The harsh lighting, the rather Gothic colours and the story lines all combine in producing an exceptional show. The Batman character is the way he should be in this series: tough, ruthless with criminals, business-like in his crime-fighting activities but also a troubled individual who is plagued by his own past. We have just about every supervillain that Batman has encountered in the show: The Joker (still number 1 ), The Penguin, Catwoman, Poison Ivy, Harley Quinn, Two-Face, Scarface, The Riddler, The Scarecrow and others. Mark Hamill takes the acting honours as the Joker. His interpretation is right up there alongside Jack Nicholson and Heath Ledger. The Joker in "Batman: The Animated Series" isn't written as being just another psychopathic criminal, the character has been given a lot of depth. His rather complex relationship with Batman is explored extensively throughout the series. The same is said of Catwoman. The majority of episodes are of a high calibre and the running time of each one rushes by. A masterpiece of drama.

    This was a show I watched as a kid and I remember the dark beginning intro that used to start and the breathtaking episodes that are action packed and always leaving me wanting more. That is the reason this deserves a 10/10 and is the greatest cartoon series of all time. It's great to have a show that is not just for kids as a lot of adults have grown up watching this and still do now, that is what makes it wonderful as you can enjoy it at any age! With great voices like Kevin Conroy and Mark Hamill what is there not to love. If you are wanting to start watching a superhero cartoon show then I must point you towards batman the animated series as it is something you can watch over and over again and never grow tired of it.

    Before I start the review, I'd like to make a point. I'm not biased by nostalgia when I write these reviews. I'm not some 90s kid that has fond memories of a show, so I give it a really high score. I don't think Batman cartoons after the 90s were bad. I don't think modern cartoons are bad at all. I just base my review scores on how much I like a cartoon, regardless of age.So, Batman: The Animated Series. Claimed to be one of the greatest cartoons to ever be made. Are these people who say this right? Definitely. It's dark and gritty, just like we all think Batman should be. Sure, the lighter incarnations such as Brave and the Bold and Batman '66 are good, but they aren't Batman. Now THIS is Batman. It's not overly dark as some episodes. have humour in. It just isn't over-the-top humour like certain cartoons today have (I'm looking at you, Teen Titans Go). The voice acting was superb. Mark Hamill is the Joker. Kevin Conroy is the vengeance and the night, everyone has a good voice. The writing was good for the most part. It felt like you were reading a Batman comic. The character design was good (besides one, which I'll cover later). The villains were awesome, even Condiment King. However, this show has a few tiny flaws. My first problem is with Killer Croc. At first I didn't even recognise who he was. He just looks strange. He looks more like a Titan Thug from Batman Arkham Asylum. My second problem is very minor, and that's a lack of Batman lines in certain episodes. Just a couple of episodes should have more lines. It makes Batman seem not human.But really that's it. The show was great, and I really hope we get another like this. 9/10.

    Batman: The Animated Series (T.A.S.) was, still is, and always will be cited as one of, if not the finest superhero TV show that ever was, animated or not. The storytelling is perfect, the way Batman/Bruce Wayne is depicted has no faults at all, and it is the literal incarnate as to how comic adaptations should look and aspire to be: a piece of serialized artwork that perfectly captures its source of inspiration while at the same time being its own thing and inventing a completely new and fresh take on a decades old character who has become as iconic as Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes.Batman: T.A.S. is still an entertaining and fast-paced adventure through animation cells and traditional superhero fun that we've all come to know and love, especially from a character such as The Dark Knight. This show is a timeless classic that has influenced basically all the adaptations of Batman, cinematic or otherwise, after its 1992 television debut. Batman: T.A.S. is the defining superhero television show and is truly a platinum gem in the history of television.
