4 Stars - Well Done Dwayne
All your old friends from the Justice League series back together... except it's Hal Jordan, not John Stewart... And Michael Rosenbaum plays a different Flash... and it's the Superman from his own show, not the Justice League one... and there's no Hawkgirl... and Cyborg's in it... well at least Batman and Wonder Woman are the same...
Justice League Doom is based on the Tower of Babel storyline from the comics... which I haven't read, so won't be able to compare it to. Its plot revolves around a group of villains trying to take out the justice league one by one, using contingency plans made by Batman and modified to be lethal by Vandal Savage.
The voice cast are a treat with majority of the cast being voiced by DC regulars, who by this point know the characters really well and always bring something special to them. Kevin Conroy in particular, this marking his 20th anniversary year voicing Batman for DC, has made Batman as badass as he always does.
This also holds a very special place in the DC Animated films, as this was the last script by Dwayne McDuffie, a wonderful talent who will be missed, this film was really good and a fitting end to a wonderful career.
