Summary: The Best Batmovie
Review: Never mind the live action Bat-films. This retelling of Batman's origin and of Bruce Wayne's lost love is stunning, chilling, and just short of brlliant (I'd really give it 4 1/2 stars).The film packs an emotional wallop as we see a younger Bruce in love and questioning his mission, and we see the present-day Batman facing an enemy whose murderous action hit too close to home. The film is notable for Kevin Conroy and Dana Delaney's excellent voice work, for the vision of an art deco Gotham World's Fair, and for a Joker - without Harley Quinn to make him less uncontrolled - at his most maniacal. If you like the animated series, or the Batman comics, or just want to wash the taste of the Batman movies out of your mouth, see this film.

Summary: Best thing ever for any fan of the animated series
Review: This is the most moving and powerful CD I have heard in a long time. The music is a story in itself. With the full emotional rollercoaster that love is to the full dark embodiment of Batman to the Jokers manical pranks, this soundtrack has it all. The first song will do more than send chills up your neck. It will make you beleive that Batman is real. I would advise this to anyone who likes Batman. It would be a mistake to not own it.

Summary: Love it , Love it
Review: This soundtrack is the best Batman soundtrack I have ever heard! It includes every moods you can think of; excitement, mystic, romance... just like the animated movie itself. If you have seen this movie, you will love the last song 'I Never Even Told You'. It revealed the feeling of Andrea Beaumont (Bruce's old lover), touching and moving. This is the only Batman soundtrack that I don't have to skip any song out! Every songs in this soundtrack really have the power of bringing your mind back into Gotham! Buy it! You will love it!

Summary: The true Batman has finally arrived.
Review: It always amuses me when animation outpaces many big Hollywood blockbusters. B:MOTP does this very thing. More gripping & intelligent than any of the live-action movies, MOTP brings Batman back to his roots by placing him in a mystery that, when finally solved, forces the Dark Knight to do some HEAVY soul-searching. I'm a fan of the series too & am constantly surprised at how it & this movie tackle heavy issues without being preachy about it. Not really for the kids, but then again neither is the series. Kid viewers will be satisfied with watching Batman run around & fight, but they'll totally miss the emotional crisis that Batman/Bruce Wayne finds himself in. The Joker is particularly nasty in this film & comes in right when you're thinking that all this is too heavy for a cartoon. That's just it though; this is not a cartoon per se. Rather it is an animation & should be viewed as such. Hollywood take note. This is the level that all other Batman films, live & animated should aspire to.

Summary: BATMAN at his best!
Review: This Movie has every thing that a TRUE Batman fan could ever want. Batman's king intilect is put to the test when his love for a woman blinds him to the truth; but his arch nemises "the Joker" praticly blows the truth up in Batman's face. I don't want to give away too much of the plot, so I will jest say if you like action, romance and a great mistery then "BATMAN: MASK OF THE PHANTASOM" IS the movie to SEE!

Summary: Different view of the Bat..
Review: It's a nice change of pace as the focus of this film is more on Bruce as the man and not the Bat. We see his indecision as he struggles between his newfound love and his promise to his parents to bring justice to Gotham. Rather unusual as we see Batman not as the confident detective he is today, but human. Some may like this take, others may not. Just think of it as a human nature film with some action thrown in and you'll get the gist of it. I still thought it was great. The only reason I gave it a four star rating because the source transfer they used for the dvd was not very good. It looked like a somewhat weathered video tape than a crisp DVD. It's still got good picture, but just don't expect the quality you find in say Mulan or Iron Giant. It reminds me more of the transfer that was done to the Rocketeer.

Summary: A great show, but a moderate movie.
Review: I can still remember my surprise when I first saw the pilot episode of Batman: The Animated Series: "My God. . .where has this cartoon been?" I also remember the cartoon's film noir opening striking me as original and grabbing my attention even in its beginning few seconds. I think maybe not since Spider-Man & His Amazing Friends had a cartoon hooked a nation as hypnotically as this one did. The stories, the characters, the issues - who would have believed such a familiar character could recapture an audience that might have thought him mundane and a little too familiar by that point. But Batman managed to pull it off. Then there was the movie. Mask of the Phantasm. Amazing? Not really. Arguably impressive as it was, it did unfortunately lack the punch that certain episodes such as "Almost Got 'Im" and "Heart Of Ice" contained. I believe what disappointed most fans of this film was the focus on a love story rather than a movie of what we'd truly come to expect from Batman - action. I myself am a fan of the series. As for the movie, I know that while it's just one of those titles you "must have" in your collection, it isn't what someone who hasn't seen it would expect. Definitely a great movie for kids but fans will want to stick to the show.

Summary: My Favorite Movie of All Time
Review: When I was younger, I used to brush off Batman: The Animated Series as stupid, and for little kids. Now at the age of seventeen, I see that I was gravely mistaken. Batman: Mask of the Phantasm would have to be my favorite movie of all time. How can I even begin to count all the things I love about it? It's gripping, exciting, witty, funny, sad... Needless to say, it's head over heals over any other Batman movie I've ever seen before. Unlike the live-action movies, it's not about appealing to the audience with predictable James Bond action sequences and famous actors. This movie truely does justice to the comic and to Bob Kane. Each character is portrayed perfectly, with wonderful animation and amazing voice acting. I absolutely love the dark deco art style as well. And the plot is one of the best I've seen. It really keeps you interested. I'd recommend this movie to anyone, Batman fan or not! Definately try this one out!

Summary: Very Good
Review: I thought this movie was very well made, much better than the live-action movies in my opinion. If you like Batman or the animated series, you will love this. However, one remark about the person who said this was the first PG animated movie released theatrically. Sorry, though only one pops into my mind, THE TRANSFORMERS: THE MOVIE (though only one video release has kept its theatrical rating of PG) was rated PG. I do not know if it was the first or not, but that is what it was rated. Robotech the Movie did as well, but I think it was like only released in one theater =) No others stand out in my mind immediately though. Anyway, off the subject there, Batman: MOTP, go buy, watch, enjoy.
