Injustice (2021)

Hi fellow animation fans, welcome to me review of Injustice.

Synopsis: On an alternate Earth Superman (Justin Hartley) is tricked by the Joker (Kevin Pollack) into killing Lois Lane, this leads him into a cycle of violence and totalitarian rule of Earth all in the name of justice. Batman (Anson Mount) and his allies then have to act to stop him. It is based on the comic book of the same name.

The Good:

*The fast-paced action does a really great job at holding your attention, it was really enjoyable to watch with a nice drink and some snacks.

* The voice acting was also really well done, there were a few weird choices, but it did not detract from how well everyone else portrayed their parts.

* The initial 15 to 20 minutes at the start that depicts Superman's fall from grace was extremely well written and had me glued to the screen wondering what was going to happen.

* I also really enjoyed the more mature tone of this movie, usually Superman movies are kept to a PG rating due to his clean-cut image and to appeal to a larger audience, so an R18 Superman movie is definitely refreshing.

The Bad:

* Some of the bloody violence feels like it was added more for shock value then to actually move the story forwards, I feel that a bit of character development was excluded for this.

* The fast pace while good also hindered this movie as there was not a lot of character development, this made many of the characters forgettable. I honestly don't know why DC movies always seem to go for no more than 90 minutes, I know animation fans will watch longer movies.
