Batman/Superman: Apocalypse starring Kevin Conroy as the voice of Batman, Summer Glau as the voice of Kara Zor El A.k.a Supergirl, Tim Daily as Clark Kent A.k.a Superman, Susan Eisenberg as Wonder Woman and Andre Braugher as Darkseid. This is why DC will always be better than Marvel when it comes to Animation they make they're characters being interesting, funny but also have some dramatic past. Having Batman smile twice and saying one liners threw out the film that they are actually funny that is seriously awesome, also Kara reacts how i pictured her to do she's a child she likes shopping, having her nails done or even eating hot dogs and then people go crazy because she reacts like that in her own show seriously? If they can make Superman and Supergirl have the same chemistry like in this then i'm in being goofy and having fun with themselves. Also the battles are very well done with the Doomsday Army but also Darkseid himself. There's also a scene that reminded me Dawn of Justice because Batman leaves the battle in order to go to the beach and investigate i mean i get it but it was so funny in a good way always. Also Darkseid? This dude is badass everyone says that Thanos is so powerful and all that but this guy has Omega Bins he almost turned Superman into Two-Face for god shakes. The only problem i have with this film is that i would love to see Batman do more fight someone or something instead of getting chased or get choked by Darkseid but in the end this was a very good movie with some really good action, laughs but also cast and animation.

For a direct-to-video movie, this was pretty decent: The designs and the animation were pretty well done, and the plot was entertaining enough, from my point of view: In many ways, I think that this was much better than the previous film Superman/Batman: Public Enemies, which had a rushed story and an unconvincing artwork (From my taste, at least. Personally I prefer the art style used in films like this or in the animated adaptation of the comic "Batman: Year One")My only complaint about this movie is the pace: Every single event that takes place in this movie happens just way too fast, something that gives the feeling that some scenes from this film were underdeveloped, without exploiting all the potential that many plot points could have. 78 minutes weren't just enough time to tell the whole story properly. Anyway, even when this isn't the best DC animated movie, it is still a pretty good one (But that could have been much better)Overall, I consider it a worth-watching experienceMy score:6.5/10

I found Public Enemies to be disappointing. This was just an absolute mess. I was able to watch it, but it seemed so cheap and shoddy that I'm sure DC are churning these out for the cash. First of all, this shouldn't have Batman in the title. He's barely in it and when he is he's simply useless. He is also ALWAYS Batman, making him an incredibly flat character. Superman is just as dull as he usually is, only this time he comes off as a weird sexually obsessed cousin, as he tries to protect Supergirl. Not much of this makes sense. Wonder Woman arrives and attacks Supergirl, in an effort to demonstrate Supergirl's destructive powers "What if this had been the middle of the day and people were here?" Don't attack her then you dumb bitch. It seems more aimed at girls, which is fine, but then they should have put Supergirl in the title. Instead you might sit down to enjoy Batman and Superman, only to be treated to a shopping montage (I'm serious). Still some nice fights and stuff, but this storyline should be put to death. The one shots such as Under the Red Hood are far more impressive.

I loved the first Superman/Batman movie, "Public Enemies". And I love this one even more. It has everything that made the first one great while fixing some PE's flaws.For starters, "Apocolypse" looks better than its predecessor. While PE based its animation on Ed McGuinness' ridiculous art style, this one tries (though doesn't always succeed) in imitating the gorgeous artwork of the late Micheal Turner, which greatly helps it.It also gives its characters more depth. In PE, a number of DC Comics characters just showed up almost randomly, many not even identified by name, let alone telling us about them. I watched it with some non-fan friends in the room and they were confused by the lesser known heroes and villains who seemed to show up out of no where and they didn't learn anything about. Here, we get to learn about many of the characters, at least to some degree. Fittingly, Kara gets a lot of focus let us get to know her well quickly and her relationship with Superman is quite stirring.It even benefits from more time. While PE was the shortest DC Animated film, this one is the longest (even if it's just by a few minutes), it makes good use of every second.However, it's not perfect. While most of the voice cast does a wonderful job, Andre Braugher is surprisingly underwhelming as Darksied. The spot on dialog would've sounded better and been more intimidating if they'd used Micheal Ironside or even Frank Welker, but Braugher's performance just isn't very menacing.It also drops a few too many things from the original comic storyline. One such unfortunate side effect of the dropped material is Lyla/Harbinger, whose death is treated with much sadness and importance by the characters, but viewers have little reason to sympathize. To be fair, the character had been so underused/misused in the comics that by the time the storyline happened I doubt many fans cared. But I can imagine her getting enough depth in the comics to give us more reason why we should be as moved by her death as the characters are. Other things I miss are Mr. Miracle, the Justice League's appearance at the end, and explanation why the Doomsday clones are such wusses. Though there are elements I'm glad they dropped like Batman fighting Darkseid and the Source Wall.As far as I'm concerned, this is one of DC's best animated films. It has everything that made "Superman/Batman: Public Enemies" cool, while surpassing it in a number of areas. A great movie for any DC Comics fan.
