Description:
Inspired by the best-selling graphic novel by Darwyn Cooke and produced by the multiple Emmy® award winning animation legend, Bruce Timm, The New Frontier is the epic tale of the founding of the Justice League. Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman are all here of course, and so are Green Lantern, Martian Manhunter and Flash - whose incredible origins will be told for the very first time. Strangers at first, these very different heroes must overcome fear and suspicion to forge an alliance against a monster so formidable, even the mighty Superman can not stop it. If they fail, our entire planet will be "cleansed" of humanity.

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - good but nothing new
first off i really liked this movie, it is a really solid telling of the justice league begining. however, if you are familiar with the justice league, have seen justice league the animated show, or are an avid comic book fan, chances are you're familiar with the characters and the stories. it's inspirational towards the end with some good leadership speeches, but again, been there. i'd say it's very much worth watching but i wouldn't buy it.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Best DC animated film along with Batman: Mask of the Phantasm
Let me start off by saying this film is PURE JOY for silver age comic fans. It's not hard to get excited while watching your favorite DC heroes with all their classic retro glory featured in a mature/intelligent/emotionally gripping story. It makes an excellent companion piece to the award winning graphic novel by Darwyn Cooke. (who was also actively involved in this production)

Even though it was necessary to excise much of the story because of time constraints, Bruce Timm and co. ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Not appropriate for small children
I grew up watching cartoons like batman, superman, wonder woman, etc. So when my three year old son begged me to buy the video, I did. Things must have changed since I grew up. I thought the target audience of these cartoons were kids. I was shocked when I heard my son say "mommy the lady say 'Son of a bitch'". I watched the video and couldn't believe that type of language would be in a superhero cartoon. Well now I am trying to remove this new word from my child's vocabulary.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Justice for The New Frontier
Justice League: The New Frontier is a good representation of the original Cooke story, but I think it could have benefited from a longer running time and less emphasis on Hal Jordan.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Not really the Justice League, more like Hal Jordan fan service
As others have mentioned if you go in expecting a Justice League experience like JLU or the JL animated series you are going to be very disappointed. This is more of a retelling of silver age Hal Jordan.

Putting Bat/Supes and WW on the front cover is pure bait and switch, as a die hard fan of JL animated and JLU I feel a bit insulted by this move by DC.
