Some of Hollywood's hottest writers lend their talents to this richly animated Batman anthology, featuring entries by David Goyer (BATMAN BEGINS), Josh Olson (A HISTORY OF VIOLENCE), and Alan Burnett (BATMAN: THE ANIMATED SERIES). With six stories in all, GOTHAM KNIGHT offers thrilling interpretations of the Caped Crusader, rendered in a style that recalls the dark and lurid lines of Japanese anime. Together, these interconnecting tales trace Batman from his early days battling evildoers in crime-plagued Gotham, to his later years as the metropolis's trusted defender. Along the way, the Dark Knight has shadowy showdowns with some of his most fearsome enemies, including Scarecrow, Killer Croc, and Dead Shot. Chock-full of explosive action sequences and bat gadgets, this continuation of the Batman saga is sure to bowl over both comic book nerds and fans of the feature films. [More]

4/5

As something of a Whitman's Sampler of the darker side of Batman mythology, it's enough to please.

As diferentes abordagens estéticas enriquecem o projeto, que realmente merece aplausos com relação ao seu design de produção. Infelizmente, os roteiros dos episódios são medianos em sua maioria, comprometendo o resultado final.

Synergistic product promotion Gotham Knight may be, but the people behind it treat their efforts as anything but disposable.

Of all the animated superhero DVDs that have come out in the last few years, this one is the best.

Warner and DC's anthology takes a page from "The Animatrix" and comes through feeling like a fresh, original, and utterly exciting look at Batman from all artistic perspectives...
