Sorry how long this one took to come out as well, things have been very busy with other commitments. I'll still try and upload videos as regularly as possible. :)

Just watched it 1000x better than suicide squad

Very solid review. As a person who did not watch the movie, I did not feel alienated from your review. Keep it up man!

[@Everik-ct6pg]

This movie has the best version of “Modern" Harley, screw that *_daDDy'S LitTLe mOnstER_* crap

[@orukarm]

I think they didn't tell us that the girl in the picture was deadshot's daughter because it's supposed to be implied, the best way to convey something in a movie is if you show it instead of telling it

[@lanehacker1935]

The girl is clearly his daughter

This movie is a prequel to the Batman Arkham series of video games and was specifically made for fans of those games. some of these characters are new to that universe while the others had already had their stories explained in the main games.

I knew that the reaction would follow as it did. DC is something you've really got to understand to enjoy. The few exceptions to this rule are the large-scale box office releases which try their best to keep from alienating newcomers. DC isn't the best when it comes to handling any type of newcomer. There isn't much explanation given when it comes to the characters, the majority of them aren't very enjoyable unless you've already known their histories and quirks before any viewing experience. In Assault on Arkham, this shines through, what implications they do give towards backstory require you to have known quite a bit about the characters beforehand.

I find this movie to be okay as a standalone movie, but pretty awful as a tie into the Batman Arkham video game series, which its supposed to be despite not having anything to do with it outside of going to Arkham.

[@respectorofwomen6648]

in all honesty I've never been a big fan of superhero stuff either. shows can do a good job with superheroes (teen titans, young justice etc) but as for films, I've always found them as sort of Michal Bay styled. A lot of them just seem to be more interested in action scenes and villains who are evil just because they can be than actual character and story development.

[@avisreviews5471]

YES! The sheep lord is back at it again with another video :D

[@an8strengthkobold360]

My biggest problem with this movie is that kite man isn't in the movie.

[@darkashtar]

If you're gonna watch a DC animated movie I'd have recommended either Under the Red Hood or Flashpoint Paradox, or even The Dark Knight Returns

[@stw3art14]

It's ironic considering Captain Boomerang is one of my favorite villains in media BECAUSE of this movie and Justice League Unlimited

[@BigCash-wt3jj]

I wonder when when that guy is gonna get his character development... he was interesting kept me hooked.

[@i-idontknow2851]

I don't think you know the Batman Games exist, this is what it's based off of. I don't really take this review seriously because you don't really understand it. I am just going to buy the movie and watch it to have an opinion.

[@GuileSSF2]

This movie was a pretty good movie, tho it shouldve been longer tbh

[@reapertheinkling239]

My favourite characters is killer frost because she cool ha ha ha ice puns funny joke 😂😂😂

[@GastlyDreamer]

Interesting review as to someone who haven't seen the movie.

[@torchsheep3424]

Thanks dude!

[@jamesjett8128]

Oh how very convenient that a review from a great youtuber was made just four days before my birthday. Great review btw.

[@jackaydostan]

My eyes hurt watching this review, the picture doesnt look sharp at all atleast in this review, looks like they have applied a smooth filter over the video.

[@gob7029]

WATCH BATMAN THE ANIMATED SERIES

[@joestarjester6011]

Lol I liked that field trip joke

[@Nada-fj8ij]

Great review, I always love your stuff. Bte you should check out captain america: Civil war if you want a good live action super hero movie

[@geo6458]

what's that song at the beginning of the video

[@torchsheep3424]

Wanna hear a joke? The DCEU movies I have no idea what to comment tbh

[@darkashtar]

The bigger joke was Marvel let Joss Whedon go by being stupid

[@kobi7955]
