Directed by Dave Bullock.
Adapted from the six-issue comic book series originally published in 2004, the animated adventure Justice League: The New Frontier follows the epic adventures of Superman and his fellow DC Comics superheroes from the end of World War II to the global tensions of the Cold War. In addition to detailing the ultimate fate of DC war comic squadron The Losers and showing how reluctant fighter pilot Hal Jordan made the stunning transformation into The Green Lantern, the film also follows Superman and Wonder Woman as they struggle with their involvement on the East Asia battle arena, finds the Martian Manhunter arriving on planet Earth, and showcases John Henry's valiant struggle against the evil Ku Klux Klan. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

"Released: February 26, 2008Director: Dave Bullock*****Armed with a PG-13 rating, a veritable Who's Who voice cast and beloved source material, Justice League: The New Frontier spends far too much time on the Green Lantern's backstory and not nearly enough on the real world events in the 1950s which has led to the Justice League dissolving. See, it's the time of Joseph McCarthy and in this fictional world, he has cast suspicion on everyone, including superheroes. We get glimpses of this world, with Flash being apprehended by the police, and brief snippets of dialogue from other characters, but nothing else. And even the main plot, that of the Centre, a benevolent race determined to wipe out humanity because of the destruction it was wrought on the Earth. Only by coming together-aliens, humans, women, men-can a new League show the world they are to be trusted-and defeat the Centre.The same problems which plagued the previous DC animated movie, Superman Doomsday, get in the way of ...

"Animated movie from Warner Brothers. Its about the formation of the Justice League during the Cold War. Really one of the better animated comic movies I've seen. The style, based on Daryn Cooke's artwork was old school cool. Voice acting was great too. " [More]

Actually, that statement is a bit misleading, because any time I'm watching a movie I could be writing instead, but forgive me, I recently got cable for the first time in about 20 years, so I've been overwhelmed lately by so many viewing options. Some of the movies inspire a few random thoughts, but sometimes not enough to warrant a full review. So here goes, my first weekly roundup of the movies I've seen, but don't think I can stretch a full post out of. A little disclaimer; these weren't ALL within the past seven days, lest you think I've done nothing but sit on my couch 24 hours a day. I'm being a bit lenient in my first post so I can clean out the backlog.Justice League: The New FrontierI haven't read the graphic novel this is based on, but seeing how closely the animation follows the stylistic illustrations of artist Darwyn Cooke, I'm going to assume it's ...
