Description:
Unmasking the Phantasm is just one of the twists in Batman: Mask of Phantasm, "one of the most imaginative films of the past year" (Chuck Rich, Westwood One). Only here will you discover all-new revelations about Batman's past, his archrival the Joker and the most grueling battle of Batman's life - the choice between his love of a beautiful woman and his vow to be the defender of right. Batman: Mask of Phantasm is a "mystery that is genuinely absorbing, suspenseful and moving" (Cincinnati Enquirer) and a film no fan should be without! Can the Dark Knight elude the police, capture the Phantasm and clear his name? Year: 1993 Director: Eric Radomski Starring: Kevin Conroy, Mark Hamill, Dana Delany, Hart Bochner, Abe Vigoda

Although the live-action Batman franchise faltered artistically after Tim Burton gave up control, the slack was taken up by the Saturday morning cartoon show, whose creators are responsible for this feature film. Though a cartoon, Batman: Mask of the Phantasm is less cartoonish than the popular '60s TV show (which spawned its own movie, Batman: The Movie). Mask of the Phantasm combines the noir of the original comic book, the violence and dark humor of the Dark Knight comic book revision, and Burton's two movies.
In Batman: Mask of the Phantasm, everyone's favorite schizophrenic billionaire crime fighter is investigating the murders of several prominent gangsters. Meanwhile, his ex-fiancée and her father are back in town. Through flashbacks, these two death-obsessed kids are shown falling in love (she lost her mother; he lost both parents--of course, they meet in a graveyard), until she leaves quickly and mysteriously. Along the way, there's a short course in the origins of the Batman costume and the origins of the Joker (voice of Star Wars' Mark Hamill!), a big fight with the smoke-enshrouded Phantasm character, who is suspected of killing the gangsters, and an even bigger fight with the Joker at the abandoned Gotham World's Fair grounds. Altogether, a good ride. --Andy Spletzer

- Can't beat origins!This film is like an opener for the Batman animated series. It shows the beginning of Bruce Wayne's becoming of Batman - and also the Joker before he became the Joker! Plenty of action and great story.
Rating:
- Batman animated full length film on dvd.Much like Batman, the animated series, from the 90's, but in full length movie form. One interesting thing about the style of the animation, is that it resembles, the 30 and 40's time period, based upon the cars depicted in the film, the use of gangsters, the clothing and architecture, but televisions and computers are also available. Good action, animation, and Batman/Bruce Wayne characterization, as well.

Rating:
- Better Than Live-ActionThis is far superior to any recent Batman film (including Dark Knight). For some odd reason, Bruce Timm and the rest of the people behind the DCAU seem to almost get it right everytime. The animation is perfect, the voices are stellar and the stories are compelling and emotional. Like I said earlier, now that the hype over The Dark Knight has died down, I've went on to praise why the other Batman films are better. After Ledger died, I think that's what made the movie so big; an actor's last finished ... Read More

- An old favorite has finally come homeI remember seeing previews on television for this movie a month before I turned three years old. I have a December birthday, and I wanted to go see it in theaters in honor of that; but Mom and Dad wouldn't take me. Now that I think about it, they probably didn't want to deal with the possibility of a frightened child in a theater; nonetheless, it rankled me at the time.
I don't remember how long it took me to finally see Phantasm; I think I was five, but the memory is fuzzy. I saw it on ... Read More
