Justice League: Crisis on Infinite Earths - Part One

Crisis on Infinite Earths was always one of my favourite comics growing up and this is just an injustice to it. The flash is a vital character in the comics but so are several others such as supergirl, Luthor and pariah. This animated film though focuses the entirety on the flash and makes him the sole hero and everybody else is a backup character. The whole first half of the film is just a confused mess as you try to figure out what is happening. Finally the animation style is so lazy and bad that it almost looks like stop motion at some points with the voices not matching the characters. All in all a great disappointment for something Inwas really waiting for.

One of few in the recent lines of the Tomorrowverse animated original films, as a long time fan of DC and love Marv Wolfmans George Perez work, I honestly haven't been much of a fan of these newer films they've put out recently, firstly the art style, not a fan of the Archer Artstyle, it doesnt feel like a DC original animated movie, wish they go back to that death & reign of Superman to JLD war and young justice art style that defined the DC original animated movies & DC animation for a long time - -wish you guys at DC WB would go back to that! The archer style sucks for dc, it's pretty average. Once you get 50 mins to 1 hour into it the film starts focusing on what the titles about, they made numerous changes from Wolfman and Perez's book, some good the Barry Allen centric focus was a nice touch, some changes unnecessary. 6/10 slow burn.

I watched this the other wek and honestly its a slow burn and not really aimed for young kids although they can watch it.

This is a long movie hat they split into three parts and I think the CW did a better job within the Arrow verse but I have only seen the first part so cannot pass that much judgment. I have to watch the other part and then an really make a call on how good they start and how good they finish it all up.

In saying this I do recommend anyone that si a DC fan its a good little movie series to add to your collection.

The only thing i do not like about these types of series its more than one movie and you ahve to commit more time to get to the end and you hope for a satisfying ending.

I guess will wait to the end of part threee for a final thought on this DC movie series.

Five years after the Arrowverse tackled DC Comics' most iconic storyline, the DCAU takes on Crisis on Infinite Earths. Part One generously adapts the source material, but ends up as a surprise Flash film instead. With nearly the entire chapter spent following the Scarlet Speedster, the opportunity to explore the multiverse is barely grazed upon. Failing to deliver what's promised, Part One creates a lackluster experience. The voice acting is bearable and better than other DCAU projects, but the animation is drastically worse than the previous standard. DC Animated films have rarely been more than fine, and Crisis on Infinite Earths: Part One is unfortunately not one of the few exceptions.

I was going into this with high expectations. From Flashpoing Paradox, War, and the Dark movies to this? Really? For starters, the quality of the animation is a huge step back. This looks like Dexter's Laboratory from 20 years ago. Another problem is that DC Animation excels when it's rated R. I could almost entertain showing it to my younger ones, but the animation is just bad. With new movies out like Blue Eyed Samurai, how can Warner Bros not keep up with modern standards?

This is a beloved story and a chance to really take DC Animation to another level. It's the one category where DC has been beating Marvel for quite some time. It didn't have to be as gory as the War movie, but some real deaths to show the impact of the situation would've helped. I don't think I care to watch the next 2 movies of this unless they look completely different. All in all, the wrong people seemed to have been selected to make this movie. It's nowhere near as good as what's been coming out for DC Animation. Watch it if you're a fan, but go in with low expectations. The Crisis on Two Earths was better than this and that was made in 2010. When James Wood's voiced Owl Man, that was memorable. Those characters are in this movie and somehow just come off as worse. That plot was way better too. Big L here for DC, get your act together and redo whatever you were working on for part 2 or just lose money the way Marvel has been now for awhile.
