Batman and Harley Quinn Review

The thing I can appreciate this film for more than anything is the return of Harley's OG Costume.

Greetings Ladies and Gents! It is I, The Shaman of Animation back once again! Another DC animated film has come and gone: Batman and Harley Quinn. To me, it seemed as though there was some controversy even before the film came out. When footage was first shown of the movie, I noticed a lot of people wrote it off from the get-go, mainly because of one name attached to it: Bruce Timm. In the eyes of many, Mr. Timm did a bad with last year's Killing Joke animated movie, and it was because of that a lot of fans didn't want him anywhere near another DC animated film.

When it came to the Killing Joke last year, most of the complaints I saw about it revolved around the first 30 minutes (And keep in mind Timm didn't even write the film). But this film was an original story that Timm himself was involved in. It was these reasons that I was more optimistic for the film. And then the film came out...let's review Batman and Harley Quinn. Warning, spoilers ahead.
