[Dr Kain]

Son of Batman - The biggest problem with this movie is they don't give you any time to sympathize for any of the characters as they are either generic or show no emotions. Damian is this kid that has not been given a real childhood and has only learned the ways of the League of Assassins. So instead of developing him with Batman teaching him anything, he yells at him once and then we are supposed to believe it made Damian do a complete overhaul in his personality. It just does not work for me. It was nice to finally see Talia featured in something for more than 5 seconds again, but at the same time, this is the worst incarnation of Deathstroke I have ever seen. His voice was bad and his characterization turned him into a complete loser. The voice for Ra's was also awful. As for Batman, there really isn't anything positive I can say about him either as he did very little and never truly won a single battle he was in. The best things about the movie was Alfred and then scene when Damian first encounters Nightwing. Aside from that, this movie is generic and forgettable. It seems like the new guys in charge of these movies prefer to just throw nonstop action into these things instead of giving the movie time to develop anything, even a coherent plot. I really want Bruce Timm back as they seem to be lost without him. At least it was better than War, but I give this movie a 6/10.

Also, I picked up Arrow Season 1 on BD at Target yesterday for $15.
