A great introduction to some lesser-known DC characters, and here's hoping that Constantine and Co. are utilized in further animated outings down the line.
A rarity to please geeky fans that, like me. hallucinated with these characters during youth, longing to see them sometime on screen. [Full review in Spanish]
Justice League Dark is a briskly paced, darkly magic adventure that gives some of DC's most shadowy heroes a chance to shine in a story that folds in mythology and mystery, while never losing sight of what it means to be a hero.
Justice League Dark characters are grounded, flawed, dysfunctional, and fun. They don't pretend to be altruistic or pretend to get along. However, they know when its time to get down to business.
Intense, confusing comics-based tale has tons of violence.
A fun celebration of the supernatural element from DC Comics.
A very effective pastime in which boredom never becomes present. [Full review in Spanish]
Justice League Dark is worthy of the R-rating. It's markedly violent and truly dwells in the mystical realm, but is burdened by an overly intricate plot with multiple characters.
The name kind of gives it away as it's very dark and unless you're a hardcore fan of DC this movie may fly over your head as there's allot of unknown characters and the plot is very stuffed at times as in my kids were asking me what's going on? and who's that?, It was good to see Constantine finally make an appearance as he did bring his charm to the film, The animation and action were ok but the film itself just didn't interest me enough to care about what happened to the heroes or anyone, It had its moments but I wouldn't go back and re watch this anytime soon.

The inclusion of Batman and the justice league wasn't essential but this introduction to the DC dark elements was okay. Deadman was terribly casted, that voice work was not suiting the character. The film isn't without its flaws but the characters are very interesting but just suffer from a convoluted storyline that gives them nothing. I'm hoping the live action film can learn a thing or two from what failed here. The DC animated has fallen from grace since Under the Red Hood and that's a shame. 17-04-2017.
It's nice to hear Matt Ryan voice Constantine again after his short tenure as the Hellblazer. It's also cool to see the oft-shunned Deadman get some attention, and I'll always give Batman-starring media a chance. But I have not been a fan of DC's more recent animated offerings. I feel they are simply going through the motions, and Justice League Dark is no great exception.
The movie tends to be quite confusing at times but overall results in a satisfying animated movie. The rated R should be taken off. Really unnecessary.
