The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

Usually I am a bit hesitant about sitting down to watch these animated "Batman" movies. Why? Well, because I am not overly keen on superhero movies. Right, well I know that Batman is not a superhero as such, but it is within a superhero universe, so that is enough. But still, my 8 year old son wanted to watch it, so I sat down together with him to watch it."Batman & Mr. Freeze: SubZero" actually turned out to be one of the better animated "Batman" movies that I have seen. Not because of the animation style or the voice acting, but because of the story. This story actually had some contents and some value to it.Personally, I can't claim to be much of a fan of the particular style of drawing that they were using in this animated movie; those chiseled chins is just too much to take in.As for the voice cast, well I wasn't impressed. With that being said, don't get me wrong, because I am not saying that the voice acting was bad. They were actually fair enough, but it just wasn't outstanding. I didn't recognize a single voice throughout the movie, but only recognized one voice from the end credits, and that was Marilou Henner.All in all, an entertaining enough animated movie for what it turned out to be.

Subzero is credited as one of the best DC animated movies and is even award winning. It's essentially a feature length episode of the long running animated television show, but that's hardly a bad thing.Telling the story of Mr Freeze as he kidnaps Barbara Gordon in a desperate attempt to save his cryogenically frozen wife.I usually have difficulty getting into these things especially when they're the family friendly ones (Which this is) but this wasn't bad at all. A touching story, good voice work and some nice writing sets it marginally apart from the rest and I came away relatively entertained.The movie does drag in places, especially near the end but it comes back with a closing scene that made it all worth it.A meh attempt for the average Joe but a must watch for Batman fanatics.The Good:Relatively well madeSweet closing sceneThe Bad:Finale oddly dragsThings I Learnt From This Movie:It doesn't matter whether animated or live action Gotham City always looks like a complete dive

DC is very very good at making complete stories like this in 70-90 minutes. The story in this case might be pretty simple, but the action makes up for it. There isn't complex themes, challenging material, or anything special like that, "SubZero" is just a straight-forward action Batman movie. Once again the writers made Freeze not only menacing, but also relatable. I felt sorry for him and his wife, even though he kidnapped and was planning to kill Barbara. The CGI might look pretty weird, but I imagine they added it to try and give the movie a sort of 3D feel. Plus, it's late-90s CGI on a straight-to-DVD movie, I can tolerate it. The other thing is the ending, I'm guessing this is just a side story and not canon, but if Nora is healthy again, then does that mean Freeze isn't evil anymore? I'm guessing so, but everything about the movie connects with "The Animated Series" aside from that, so it comes off as a little random that she would get better to me. Sure, it's not the best animated Batman movie, and it's not the most original animated Batman movie. But it's very entertaining, and that's enough for me at the end of the day.

I for one have never really been a big fan of animated cartoon type movies, that is since I'm now an adult but in my past as a kid I treasured them. And being a big "Batman" fan I just had to check out the animated films even as an adult. I must say that this film featuring villain Mr. Freeze: Subzero didn't let me down either. As Freeze wanted to chill Gotham City this animated film brought red hot explosive action! The drama and story is well laid out with a plot twist that would even appear in a big screen movie. It centers around Barbara Gordon("Batgirl") who finds herself being the unlucky one that's kidnapped by Freeze when he finds out that she's an organ donor. The thing is the wife of Freeze needs an organ transplant to return to her normal state. Never fear "Batman" and "Robin" are to the rescue! Really watch this if you haven't it ends with everyone on a happy note just like the days when you as a kid watched cartoons! Overall great animated work of a "Batman" film.
