Initially when I sat down to watch this 2014 DC animated movie titled "Son of Batman" here in 2020, I was thinking that it was just going to be another run-of-the-mill animated "Batman" movie that come a dime a dozen. But still, I hadn't already seen it, so of course I ended up sitting down to watch it.
And color me impressed. This DC animated movie is actually among some of the best of their animated movies set in the "Batman" universe. Sure, it was a bit cliché with the son and the title and all, but believe you me, the storyline was actually rather good and entertaining.
"Son of Batman" also make use of a good art style that is very reminiscent of the 1980s cartoons, such as "G.I. Joe" for example, so that was definitely something that appealed to me, as I grew up watching the 1980s cartoons. And the animation was very smooth and natural, making the animated movie look rather good.
With this being an animated movie, having a proper voice cast is very crucial to the success of the movie. And that they did have. I was impressed to hear the voices of talents such as Morena Baccarin and Giancarlo Esposito in this animated movie.
All in all, "Son of Batman" is quite worth taking the time to sit down and watch. I am rating it a seven out of ten stars.
