Justice League Dark: Apokolips War (2020)

Some reviewers seem to hate it. I found it quite refreshing take on JL. I went in with very very low exceptions into it though. I went in expecting typical plot that been used for years and years since the original JL animated series some 20 years ago.

Darkside sends some Parademons to earth JL defeat them but realize they are only scouts of darksides coming invasion forces. Dark side finally starts to invade all of the justice league come together and manage to either stop him from getting there ( break his portal or whatever) or if he does get there they get help from new genesis or some other BS way and send him back.

This is not one of those I'd compare it to flash point: Paradox movie except it's the current and not a parallel earth.

With that in mind you know there is going to be tragedy. It also has a lot of blood shed and death which I really like to see more of. DC been very very over protective of their characters makes their movies very boring usually and you can pretty much know "Our heros beat the baddy save the world and everyone lives happily ever after"

This is not that kinda movie. I hope DC tries this more in the future I'm tired of DC content aimed for kids. We have come a long way from BTAS where they couldn't even show blood or death.

Which I never got in Anime for example death and more serious themes in animation is common. In American animation usually everything is a joke or won't get into series topics as it's understood animation is for kids. I'd like to see that change. Movies like these are a step in that direction.
