This movie was a ton of fun! Michael Cera's Robin was particularly great

Here's the end credit sequence from the movie.

Major spoilers - do not watch until you've seen the film!

I guess it's funnier once you've seen the film...?

It's basically the feel-good 'Dreamworks-dance-party' that ends the film .. there's definitely some fun stuff in there, but it's not nearly the funniest stuff the movie has to offer.

I was a little creeped-out at first by Bruce Wayne's 'interest' in Barbara Gordon .. but the movie does make very clear that she's a bit older here, than in most previous incarnations (she's a graduate of Harvard -- for COPS! ) .. and trying to shoehorn Catwoman or some other female character into the Bat-'family' dynamic this movie was going for might've only muddied its message.

I was pleased to see Harley Quinn acting like her classic B:TAS self (as opposed to the Amy Racecar clone she has become, in the movies & comics). Jenny Slate did a great job with her voice, too.

The gags do come fast and furious, throughout the movie -- especially in the action-packed opening scene & climactic battle .. and manage to poke fun at every previous version of Batman (yes, even the 1940s matinee serial). Lots of blink-and-you'd-miss-'em cameos, too.

I SAID DON'T WATCH IT IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THE FILM!







It's the end credits sequence. But there is a "bookend" element to it that was mentioned in one of our recent news stories.
