Batman Vs. Two-Face Review: 7 Ups & 5 Downs

2. The Climax Feels Rushed

This is another common issue in Batman's animated movies: the film's finale feels ridiculously rushed. After battling Two-Face, Batman learns from Commissioner Gordon that Gotham's criminals, who were previously running riot throughout the city, were snappily captured and returned to police custody.

"Show, don't tell" is a classic rule of filmmaking, and considering how fun it could've been to see the likes of The Joker, The Riddler and so on get snapped up by the fuzz, it feels like a lazy cost-cutting measure to merely have them be scooped up off-screen.

Given the money these movies surely make hand-over-fist, is it really asking much for them to be fully fleshed-out?
