				Why watch this? This 
				animated classic is one of the best Batman stories ever. 
				Plot Summary: A new 
				vigilante, known as the Phantasm, begins eliminating Gotham 
				City's crime bosses, and Batman is wrongly accused of the 
				murders. While trying to solve the mystery and clear his name, 
				Bruce Wayne reconnects with an old love, Andrea Beaumont, whose 
				return stirs up complex emotions and raises questions about his 
				decision to become Batman. The film explores Batman's past and 
				present, as he grapples with the escalating violence and the 
				resurfacing feelings for Andrea, leading him to confront 
				difficult choices about his future. Dad's Preview: 
				After the incredible 
				
				Batman: The Animated Series, the same creators finally 
				gave audiences this full-length animated film. It delivers 
				big time. It features two legendary voice actors in Kevin Conroy as Batman and Mark Hamill 
				(yes, Luke Skywalker) 
				as The Joker. The plot is, of course, a who-done-it, with 
				everyone intent on stopping the mysterious Phantasm, a devious 
				villain, murdering folks in Gotham City. The Caped Crusader will 
				have to look deep within to solve this confounding caper.
