Trivia
The good performance of the Superman/Batman: Public Enemies release has led Warner Premiere and DC Universe to release a sequel, Superman/Batman: Apocalypse, based on the Superman/Batman comic storyline "The Supergirl from Krypton". It was released on September 28, 2010 See more »Goofs
Superman flies up into space to rescue Batman, who is in the wrecked rocket. However, this would be suicide for Superman because the Kryptonite dust cloud and the trillions of shards of the meteor would still be floating around out there. See more »Quotes

Right, well initially I had very little expectations for "Superman/Batman: Public Enemies" given the fact it being an animated superhero movie. I am normally not overly keen on the superhero genre, but I do sit down to watch them with my 9 year old son.
Turns out that the 2009 "Superman/Batman: Public Enemies" was actually rather enjoyable. Why? Well, because it was somewhat of a step up in the right direction. By that I mean meant for a more mature audience, given the concept of the storyline, and it not just being a good guys vs. bad guys run-of-the-mill that superhero movies tend to be.
I thoroughly enjoyed Clancy Brown doing the voice acting for Lex Luthor in this animated movie, because he has such an iconic and easily recognized voice.
The animation was good, although the art style was bordering on being a bit too childish for my personal preference. But luckily the action and the storyline managed to draw the attention away from the art style for most of the time.
The dialogue in "Superman/Batman: Public Enemies" was good, and they had a rather nice list of voice actors to perform the different voices for the characters. And let's just face it, in an animated movie, the voice acting is alpha and omega.
I was genuinely entertained with the outcome of "Superman/Batman: Public Enemies", and I am rating it a solid six out of ten stars.
