A nice tribute to a legendary character

This is a movie that uses the same animation from the 1990s when it comes to DC. That is welcome. The short is well put together: the characters are shown in such a way that one manages to understand the stupidity of all of them and suspect that one of them will have its great moment of redemption. The protagonist of the story appears in a mysterious way and acting as a voice of conscience offers one opportunity after another to do things right. The villain will not make things easy and the final duel has twists and turns and a welcome outcome. There is a moral background with which I would not necessarily fully agree. However as short it works and that is what is expected.

Unbelievably bad

Where to start? Terrible 1960's style parody animation, Scooby Doo parody characters, bad graphic design and titles...The story, such as it is, has been done better a dozen times before, the music is terrible and the "psychedelic" effects look like they were done by a five year old, throwing oil on a puddle and a supposed master sorcerer mispronouncing Ouroboros is unforgivable and then... OH boy... and then Peter Serophinorwitz doing the worst Mike Berry impersonation imaginable for the voice of the Phantom Stranger to the point where the cringe factor makes you want to chew your own ears off! Serophinorwitz is awful at the best of times but here, he really abuses the privilege. All in all not what you would expect from Bruce Timm unless he is deliberately trying to wreck his own career.
