Reviews for Batman - Mask of the Phantasm
managed to soar above the theatrical Batman adaptation, and would remain the best Bat Movie to hit the big screens until Batman Begins shook things up in 2005

One of the best movie versions of Batman ever

While the script and pedigree of actors are commendable, the craft level is too close to the small-screen offering to get audiences into theaters.

Infinitely more entertaining than the last two live-action Batventures.
