Gotham by gaslight is an example of good comic book adaptation. But it also butchered it's good characters . It's interesting they changed the climax as in original gordon was not the ripper. But they wasted so many good characters like lelsie thompson , the robins ,dr hugo strange , harvey dent , poision ivy etc . But although it's a good spring movie you could watch .
That's how it started. Took almost NOTHING from the original comic, save that Jack the Ripper was the villain.And then they made Jim Gordon the Ripper!?Screw that noise. There's not enough hate in the world to express my contempt for this movie.
This is a poor attempt to paste Batman and his supporting characters onto something else. The characters are cardboard, the story unappealing, the voice acting uninspired. Unimaginative people keep pulling the Batman (and really the entire DC universe) thinner and thinner. What if Batman were a vampire? What if Superman were Russian? What if - we removed the heart of every DC character?That's what it really comes down to - removing the hearts of characters because poor story tellers want jobs telling stories.
In every year there are a lot of titles of batman most of them are ok and only few of them are good. i think that this movie was the best one to see in the whole batman animated series since ( under the hood) which was released back away in 2010. I wasn't impressed when i first heard that (Sam Lui ) is going to direct this version because i was so disappointed with both (the killing joke & Harley Quinn), but i must say that he gave us here a brilliant job . what i liked about this film was the story which was totally amazing (changing both the characters and the time events) the animation was also good. and the identity of Jack The Ripper was somehow good ( Even though, it wasn't that difficult to know who really he was) . i know that this was based on a book which was released in 1989, but i'm really hopping to see a sequel of this version.
