"The members of the Justice League are among the most powerful and potentially dangerous people on the planet." – Batman

Why watch this? This awesome animated Justice League film is one of the best.

Plot Summary: The immortal Vandal Savage steals Batman's confidential files that outline the weaknesses of the Justice League members. Savage then assembles his League of Doom comprised of Bane, Cheetah, Metallo, Mirror Master, Star Sapphire, and Ma'alefa'ak, to incapacitate the League using Batman's own strategies against them.

Dad's Preview: For as much as Warner Brothers bungles Justice League live-action films, they have shining successes with their animated JLA flicks. This movie takes place with an experienced League smoothly operating, as seen when they dispatch the Royal Flush Gang. Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Flash, Martian Manhunter and Green Lantern know the ropes, and a newcomer, Cyborg lends a highly technical hand. Things get exciting when the League gets pounded, thanks to a devious plan by Vandal Savage. I really enjoy the original voice cast from the Justice League TV series. This is a great story with surprising revelations, and a must-see for DC comics fans.
