Batman The Long Halloween Part Two Review

The much-awaited Batman: The Long Halloween Part Two was released today, and it sure is the sequel we don’t deserve but the sequel we need! If you thought there was chaos in the first part, this one’s ruthlessly catastrophic.

Quick Review

This sequel was absolutely worth the wait! A brilliantly written tale of crime, lies, and betrayal, this film will leave you wondering why can’t DC live action films be this good. It’s a world that’s so well-developed that you would want to be a part of it and have goosebumps in so many moments!

Is It Worth Watching?

Batman The Long Halloween Part Two is a must-watch for fans of the comics and the regular audience. This direct-to-video film is easily better than most live-action DC films out there, both old and new.

No, I’m not a fanboy, but I think every frame of the film has a story to tell. A story that you’ll regret not knowing.

Plot

Batman The Long Halloween Part Two picks up from where it left off in the first part. At the end of the first film, we’re all shocked by the death of Alberto Falcone, who we all thought was the Holiday Killer!

Now, we’re left thinking, who is this serial killer wreaking havoc. His schemes were so devious and his methods so smart. Even live-action, the clowned prince of crime, The Joker, was threatened by his feats. After all, The Joker wants to be the best criminal out there.

So in this sequel, we resume on a treacherous journey of the Holiday Killer, how he kills different members of the Falcone family, and most importantly, why!

Don’t worry, I won’t spoil it for you, because I’d rather you watch it! But if you want to know who the Holiday Killer is, check out the article below.

Cast And Characters

The film retains most of its original characters – Batman, Harvey Dent, his wife Gilda, Gordon, and Carmine Falcone. But along with these, we have some new faces such as Poison Ivy, Scarecrow, The Riddler, and a few others.

Though the Joker barely appears in the film, the writers manage to showcase his personality with just one simple dialogue!

Each character is very well-detailed, and the voice actors truly bring them to life. Being a character-driven film, the characters must be intriguing and have the ability to captivate you. And this becomes all the more difficult with animated films.

But with Batman: The Long Halloween Part Two, you’ll not feel even for a single second that the story isn’t real.

Final Thoughts And Grade

I don’t think I’ve been subtle with what I feel about this feel. It is a must-watch for anyone who loves a great story that gives you literal chills. So before I spoil it for you, go on and watch it and thank me later!
