Actuakers One of my all time favorites.

Acensbart Excellent but underrated film

Nayan Gough A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

Derrick Gibbons An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

bloodyzombies1 Batman: Dead End follows Batman after The Joker escapes from Arkham yet again. He searches for him and they eventually do battle in an alley way. While fighting though a certain Alien and its Predator join in. Will Batman survive? If your still reading this, than here's what else you need to know. 1. This is a short film: It was made by fans for fans and then released at San Diego Comic-Con and shortly after on the internet. 2. This was made to show of the director's directing skills: This means he put his all into this and the reward is some beautiful cinematography throughout the picture. 3: This is from 2003: When it was released, Batman: Dead End was critically acclaimed by Kevin Smith and Alex Ross (people of the comic book field) who both thought it was there favorite Batman film yet and the most true to the comics. Whether they still think that I don't know. My opinion: While it is not my favorite of the Batman films its still far better than Batman & Robin and for many people Batman Forever. My only complaints with this picture is that there's one beautiful camera angle of Joker's face but I feel that it wasn't used at the right time. It should have been used for buildup not mid-dialogue. Also the ending is mid-battle and it may disappoint you as it did me. overall though you can watch this for free on YouTube so why not? You'll probably enjoy it.

frank-684 I just can't fathom how anyone can proclaim an 8 minute fan film as the best Batman film ever. It's just nonsensical to compare 8 minutes of mayhem, zero characterisation, bad acting and bad dialogue to such excellent films as Batman (89), Batman Begins and The Dark Knight. True, the latter two weren't yet produced at the time Dead End was made, but even so. There are portions of Batman Forever which blow Dead End away in terms of quality.Don't get me wrong, for a fan film, this isn't that bad. It has some good atmosphere, some good camera work and stunts, some decent costumes. But, Clark Bartram may look good in the suit (and a crappy suit it is too), but he'd make a woeful Bruce Wayne (as he does in Sandy Collora's woeful World's Finest follow-up to this). Collora is an artist, a special fx technician. He's not a writer or a director. And I think that shows in this. The dialogue is atrocious. I wish talented people in their chosen fields would stay in those fields. Everyone and their dog seems to think they can write and direct these days. Most suffer from delusions of grandeur. Collora is one of those.Overall, a decent fan film, but as a film itself, pretty bad from woe to go. Not recommended.

disdressed12 i liked this short Batman film for the most part.i liked the the gritty dark look.i liked the look of Batman and the characterization.i also liked the look of the joker,and the characterization of him.he was appropriately maniacal.the story is decent,and moves right along and the action scenes are very well done.but then,i thought things got a bit silly.i don't want to spoil anything,but if you're expecting a big fight between The Joker and Batman,you'll be disappointed.there are some other iconic villains introduced,but i just didn't think they fit with Batman.maybe i'm out to lunch on that score.however,those scenes were filmed very well.there are so many positive about this film,that i have to give it a good score.for me,Batman: Dead End is an 8/10

kyle-mcdonald OK well i was on youtube and i just happen to come across this video and my first thought was. What the hell is this some guy trying to make a batman movie but my thoughts changed once i started watching it the story is actually pretty good and the guy who plays batman does it pretty well. The guy who plays the joker does an awesome job at doing it. The fight scenes in it are very well done and it is very enjoyable to watch. Also the people who played the aliens and the predators do a wonderful job at doing it. So i am sure you will not be disappointed with batman dead end and you will have a good time watching it and you will watch it over and over again. So make sure you rent or buy batman dead because it is really good.Overall score ******** out of ********** *** out of *****
