Justice League x RWBY: Super Heroes and Huntsmen, première partie

Right, well I did not know about this DC animated movie titled "Justice League x RWBY: Super Heroes and Huntsmen Part One" prior to stumbling upon it by sheer, random luck. And I opted to sit down and watch it, since I had the free time. Usually I am not overly keen on superhero things, so I wasn't exactly thrilled to find this particular animated movie.

First of all, the title of the movie, "Justice League x RWBY: Super Heroes and Huntsmen Part One", is just not one that has any appeal to it whatsoever. It feels cluttered, clumbsy and just too long. And already there was the first anchor around the ankles of the movie.

The next anchor was the art style used. It looked like unfinished graphics for a 1990s computer game. It was seriously lacking textures and layers, and looked too plain and unfinished. Plus the fact that it was reminiscent of something trying to imitate Anime, but not fully delving into the Japanese art style. And those things just killed off "Justice League x RWBY: Super Heroes and Huntsmen Part One" for me. And I ended up giving up on it not even a quarter-way through the ordeal.

I don't even know what RWBY is, and thus can't claim that this aspect of this crossover DC animated movie had any appeal either.

I can't say whether or not the storyline in "Justice League x RWBY: Super Heroes and Huntsmen Part One" was good, because I just simply hadn't seen enough to form an opinon on it. But the art style in this 2023 animated movie from writer Meghan Fitzmartin and director Kerry Shawcross just didn't appeal to me in any way.

This 2023 animated movie receives a generous two out of ten stars from me, as I am not interested in watching something that looks like a discarded 1990s computer game that didn't make the cut because of subpar graphics.

As a fan of both RWBY and the Justice League i was both excited and hesitant to watch it, cause i knew that crossovers could often be hit or miss. However, after watching the movie, I was both glad and shocked at how well it turned out.

First and foremost, the action sequences were absolutely stunning. And it was amazing to see the RWBY characters fighting alongside members of the Justice League. The fight scenes were fast-paced, exciting, and truly showcased the unique abilities of each character.

However, the movie was not without its flaws. One major issue I had with the movie was its length. Clocking in at just over an hour, the movie felt rushed and could have benefited from an extra 15-20 minutes of runtime. This would have allowed for more character development and a deeper exploration of the story.

Another issue I had with the movie was the weak introduction. The first few minutes of the movie felt disjointed and confusing, with a sudden jump from one scene to another without much explanation. While the story eventually came together, a stronger and more coherent introduction would have helped to set the stage for the rest of the movie. The "i dont remember" choice may have been better without it. But it fitted the 1h 20 time.

Despite these flaws, I still thoroughly enjoyed the crossover movie. It was a unique and exciting blend of two beloved series, and I was impressed by how well the characters and storylines were integrated. The movie did justice to both series and did not feel like a cheap cash grab, which can often be the case with crossovers.

In conclusion, I would rate the RWBY and Justice League crossover movie a 6 out of 10. While it was a great experience for fans of both series, it could have been even better with a longer runtime and a stronger introduction. Nonetheless, it was an enjoyable and action-packed ride that was well worth the watch for fans of either series.

But the integration? 10/10.

Do you like how compassionate and kind Superman is?

Do you like how intelligent, bold, stoic, dramatic, intimidating but kind Batman is?

Do you like how headstrong Diana is, how she is skeptical, admirable, smart?

Do you like the early volumes of RWBY and want a cool throwback to the tone of those early volumes and the characters?

Get ready. BECAUSE THIS MOVIE DELIVERS NONE OF THAT.

Superman is now a dorky insecure shy guy who doesn't quite understand anything.

Batman is also a nervous sad boy.

Diana is as complex as cardboard. Every other character serve to explain the plot through exposition.

There is nothing complex in this movie. It does not aim to be a respectful tribute to RWBY or DC fans.

Your favorite characters on both sides do not get time to express themselves apart from trying to pick a part a mystery that is revealed through exposition and endless scenes of ''Why are we here guys?''

The writing is as complex and thought provoking as a first draft essay done for homework in middle school. This is not a good movie. It is not a fun one you can laugh at with friends. It just is bland, unimaginative and rushed.

If you're a fan of Justice League, don't bother, unless you also like, or even follow RWBY. It's basically like RWBY bribed DC to get their name thrown in with Justice League so they can get some attention or maybe new fans. But if you don't like RWBY or even know what it is just skip this. It's about 90% RWBY and about 10% justice league, and not even a good version of them. They are teenagers, with lame powers, obviously nerfed so they wouldn't outshine the Yu-Gi-Oh! Rip off anime characters that are called RWBY. Which even the name is lame. It's the first initials of 4 of the characters, Ruby, Weiss, Blake and Yang. How clever... sigh. I got about 2/3rds of the way through and had completely lost interest. It was like watching someone else play a final fantasy game while you sit there. I'm waiting for Ash Ketchum to get his VS justice league movie.

I had no knowledge of RWBY, only in DC, so I went in relatively blind. I didn't expect any deep storytelling, themes etc.. Just a fun time. And that's what I got.

I liked most of the different character interactions (in particular Jess and Jaune), the action scenes were great, and the mystery for how the Justice League seemingly arrived at Remnant was handled really well.

I also really liked most of the new designs for the Justice League members to make them fit in the RWBY world. Giving Batman batwings seemed as an odd choice, but it worked.

The movie ends with bit of a cliffhanger (its called Part One.. duh), but I'm definitely looking forward to Part Two.
