Superman/Batman: Apocalypse

Good follow-up to Superman/Batman: Public Enemies. As with that movie, this is adapted from a comic book story written by Jeph Loeb. The story introduces Superman's cousin, Kara Zor-El (aka Supergirl). Not long after she arrives on Earth, Kara is kidnapped by the evil Darkseid. Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman must travel to the planet Apokolips to rescue her before Darkseid can brainwash her into becoming one of his Furies.

Enjoyable and fun, with some pretty intense action scenes. The dialogue and characterizations are good. Love the voicework from old pros Kevin Conroy, Tim Daly, Susan Eisenberg, and Ed Asner. Summer Glau does a great job as Supergirl. Andre Braugher's Darkseid is unimpressive. Nice music and animation. The story is a little rushed and probably could've used more build-up before all of the Apokolips stuff, which is the weakest part of the movie. The action is exciting, particularly the climactic fight scene. It probably plays better to fans than people unfamiliar with these characters' histories but I don't think casual viewers will be completely lost. There's enough to enjoy that I doubt you'll regret trying it out.
