And when the Joker falls in the balance between the two, hard truths are revealed and old wounds are reopened.]]> Review: Dare to Look Under the Hood! - Batman: Under the Red Hood is the latest in the DC Universe series of animated DVDs. The two-disc DVD is very special and tells a gripping story and gives lots of great features that you'd spend hours watching. The main event has to do with Jason Todd, the second Robin who was beaten to death with a crowbar by the Joker and then bombed out of existence -- or so we thought. Batman began his darkness at this time, blaming himself for Todd's death. I though it interesting that the writers only touched on Jason Todd as Robin, not really getting deep into the history of the character -- just enough to interest the viewer but not so much as to bore me to death with details only a rabid fan would know. Still, the foam began forming around my gums as Batman hunts the Red Hood. The Red Hood was also the name of The Joker back in the day (in the comics world, in the 1940s) and so he hunts up the Joker (with some special humor appeal from Nightwing) to see what Joker knows about this Red Hood character. The underworld is under his pay, 40% of all they bring to the drug trade to the Red Hood and he will provide protection. This vigilante can't stop crime, he says, so he'll join them -- and kill anyone who gets in his way. Great fight scenes, some ingenious moves and some flash-back stories to a younger, more vibrant Jason Todd. The story reminded me in many ways of the Hush storyline in its action and keeping the viewer guessing as to the Red Hood's identity. Features: Lots of backstory on the Robin character, from Dick Grayson's beginnings, his development into Nightwing and the early writers and artist's reasons for giving the lone Batman a sidekick in the first place. Two Batman-related videos from the early 1990s, where Robin finds the killers of his parents and Batman tries to prevent him from taking revenge. Tight story, not a slow minute. The previews and trailers, I've seen most of them already: Crisis on Two Earths and so on. However, the first look into Superman/Batman Apocalypse with Darkseid as the powerful bad guy and a complete Supergirl origin story was right out of the Supergirl comics done by Michael Turner a few years ago. But the story is expanded and the creators of the show really exude interest and excitement for this project. Lastly, some Jonah Hex animated stories. The animation is not as top notch as the feature film, but does make for some interesting storytelling. Jonah is looking for a man who is on his bounty list. Except the man was murdered by a madam who kills first and kisses later. Bottom Line: The story and voice-acting abilities of Batman: Under the Hood create a dark, interesting view of a Batman who seems to have created a monster, full of anguish and what he can do to rectify the Red Hood and his crime spree -- regardless of how many criminals he has to walk through to stop him. A must-see for any Batman fan and a great intro to the DC Animated Universe of DVDs.

(Book 2 Pt. 2) - One thing that can be said about Batman is that his character as a whole has created a monster fan base. Part of that fan base that grew up with the Dark Knight has actually had the privilege to create some of his most memorable adventures. Bruce Timms' newest animated movie `Batman: Under The Red Hood' is one of the more recent Batman classics brought to us. What makes this story so special is that it was derived from one of the darkest stories in Batman's legacy, and that story revolved around the death of the second Robin. Historically the death of Jason Todd is known as `Batman's greatest failure'. What Under The Red Hood does is takes `A Death In The Family' and adds a whole new chapter. Deriving from the major elements it turns `Death' into a much larger story with an incredible epilogue. As much as I would have loved to s `A Death In The Family' brought to life, `Under The Red Hood' may in fact be the best Batman story the DCAU has offered us. The story that this film gives us takes place five years after the death of Jason Todd. Suddenly the crime lords of Gotham City have a new threat and he is this merciless vigilante known as Red Hood. His mission is to keep the mob in line and make sure that while their actions continue to flourish, they have to work under his rules. Because, if they step out of line, they die. Of course Batman leaps into action to try and take him down, but once he gets too close to this new threat his world will be shattered when he discovers who Red Hood truly is. This movie was such an incredible piece. It is definitely the darkest film up until this point, but it is such a well executed story. There are however a few negatives, but I will go with the positives first. What I loved about this film was the homage to the ending of `A Death In The Family'. While it is not as graphic as depicted on the pages of the comic, keep in mind that this film is rated PG-13. Still, they kept the actions taken and the dialogue intact and it is such a gripping scene to watch. That feeling that you get in that moment carries on all the way to the end of the film. The final showdown with Batman & Red Hood is incredible. I have never seen such passion and emotion thrown into one of these films up until now and I have to say that I had to re-watch that whole final scene, just because it was so well done. On that note the voice acting was perfect. Bruce Greenwood did a spot on job as Batman. I have to admit, there were points in the film where I couldn't even tell it was him because he sounded so similar to Kevin Conroy. What made Greenwood a better choice for this film was the passion in his voice especially when he raised his voice. Jensen Ackles was great as Red Hood. He started out just as a regular voice actor, but the scenes he has with Batman are so great. The final showdown he puts almost an Oscar worthy performance, I have to say I was enthralled. John DiMaggio took on the Joker. Now, I have to say that many people always hate when Mark Hammil isn't there, but let's face it with a movie as heavy as this one Mark Hammil's voice would just come of extremely cartoonish. Don't get me wrong in Phantasm and Return of the Joker he does a great job, but take a look at those movies in general and compare them to the setting of Red Hood. I promise you, you will understand why they used another actor. Still DiMaggio as a plus turns on that Mark Hammil Joker charm in this film, but the voice he brings is a darker, creepier Joker and it's a win for this film. The best voice would have to be Wade Williams as Black Mask. He brings sheer over the top villainy to Black Mask. It is one of those voices that just makes the character so evil you grin with delight at his madness. Black Mask was this guy that would get so high strung in two seconds he would punch through a brick wall. So, what are the faults of `Under The Red Hood?' It was too short. A movie of such grandeur should be more than 79 minutes. I don't know why Bruce Timm thinks that we have such short attention spans. There were so many great things thrown into this package that I felt there wasn't enough. An example would Neil Patrick Harris as Nightwing. I could watch NPH perform in front of a brick wall for 3 hours and be entertained. He breathed great life into his character, but it would have been great just to see more action with him in it. The flashbacks of Jason Todd were great as well. I thought maybe it would have been a plus to throw some flashbacks of Dick Grayson as Robin maybe to see him depart from Batman or encounter him for the first time as Nightwing. Yet, I digress. `Under the Red Hood' is a great film, mostly because it revolves around the Robin character. Robin is a persona in DC comics that is always blasted by fans because of the camp of the silver age and the old Adam West show. Still, Robin is probably one of the most important characters because he brings a human side out in Batman. To see what Batman goes through when a hero that he trained becomes something he shouldn't be it just makes the Batman persona more of a legend, but more than that a hero with a heart. Also if you are planning to get this film on DVD, purchase the two disc edition, which features another DC Showcase short. This one features Jonah Hex, and since his movie bombed this will be all the Jonah Hex you need. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B003ITZBVI | | Actors | Various | | Aspect Ratio | 1.78:1 | | Best Sellers Rank | #4,044 in Movies & TV ( See Top 100 in Movies & TV ) #2,272 in Blu-ray | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 4.8 out of 5 stars (4,943) | | Director | Various | | Dubbed: | Spanish | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item model number | 883929099597 | | Language | English (DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1), Spanish (Dolby Digital 5.1) | | MPAA rating | PG-13 (Parents Strongly Cautioned) | | Media Format | NTSC | | Number of discs | 1 | | Product Dimensions | 6.75 x 5.3 x 0.5 inches; 0.01 ounces | | Release date | July 27, 2010 | | Run time | 1 hour and 15 minutes | | Studio | WarnerBrothers | | Subtitles: | English, Spanish | ## Product Details - **Contributor:** Various - **Format:** NTSC - **Genre:** Animation - **Initial release date:** 2010-07-27 - **Language:** English ## Images ![DCU Batman: Under The Red Hood (Blu-Ray) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91sflwYE9SL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Dare to Look Under the Hood! *by C***R on August 2, 2010* Batman: Under the Red Hood is the latest in the DC Universe series of animated DVDs.
