The central problem with "Justice League: The New Frontier" is that Bruce Timm's clear, square-jawed animation style doesn't match the tone... Director Bullock, rather than using his film's style as a necessary distancing tool, merely revels in it. Go to Full Review

4/5
a joy for an old-school comic book fan, and hopefully a view of some awesome things to come. Go to Full Review

4/5
Much more of a sophisticated outing this time around, and while it may go over the heads of younger audiences, there's a lot to be gained for older folks looking for more than one-liners and knockdown drag out tussles between titans... Go to Full Review

diogo13 T @Tua_mera Jul 12 A fantastic adaptation that shines by honoring the 1950s and 60s comics with a beautiful retro art style. The script does a great job placing the heroes within the political climate of the Cold War, focusing on the transition into forming the Justice League. It loses a few points because the third act feels a bit rushed to wrap up the main threat, but it remains one of DC's most mature and charming animated films. See more Bret M. @BretM-3 Mar 12 This is a pretty good movie. But it's not perfect. Firstly, I love the period piece element of it. Having the movie be set in the 50s adds a unique flavor to the movie and helps it stand out. I thought the animation was good and on par with the other DC Universe animated movies I've watched so far. One thing that really surprised me was how gory and violent this movie was. The amount of bloody kills and blood splatters was insane! If this movie was live action, it'd be R for sure. I also thought that the voice acting was good. Maybe not as good as other DC animated movies but still very good. But I have 2 big complaints: the first of which is the pacing. This movie is SO SLOW!! There were so many exposition dumps and vague teases about the threat we're facing that I was getting a little bored. Pair those with slow character introductions and slow origin stories and I was fighting sleep! I guess it’s still worth watching if you’re a DC Fan, but it is not great in my opinion.

It has the feel of a great summer blockbuster while also being insightful and thought provoking and most of all, respectful to teh source material. The voice casting was excellent and Lucy Lawless nailed it as WOnder WOman. See more Frank J @RT59071216 02/27/2025 It's alright. Nothing special. See more Anderson O @Platinum2027 05/17/2024 I couldn’t stop watching this version of the Justice League The New Frontier numerous times. A strong patriotic theme with worldwide stakes raised to the Maximum. Clever animation style with a pulp old score feel on your favorite DC characters with many cameos in the DC mythos.
