Batman : The Killing Joke

If you've only read the graphic novel that this is based off from, you're probably better off just sticking with that. If you've never read the graphic novel that this is based off from, then this movie will only make you wonder why "The Killing Joke" is such a big deal to comic book fans. 

This animated film's problem is that it seems like it's two movies in one. A Batgirl story that isn't that great, and at best it's just an excuse to show more of her. Then there's a Joker story that's actually really compelling, but unfortunately that Batgirl story just gets in the way. The whole movie just feels all over the place, and most of the dramatic impact the movie does have just gets kinda diffused by what seems to just be an excuse for shock value. 

As a Batman themed movie, it's definitely not your typical superhero story, and it's more like a curious diversion to check out. Still the same, you're still better off just reading the graphic novel.
