Batman: Mask of the Phantasm | The Best of Batman?

Batman: Mask of the Phantasm is still the gold standard for Batman storytelling — and it’s not even live-action. Released theatrically at the height of Batman: The Animated Series, this noir-infused tragedy explores Bruce Wayne’s one real chance at happiness, and the moment he chooses the cowl instead. More romantic, more adult, and more emotionally devastating than most superhero films that followed, does it hold up after all these years, or is it overrated? Guest Ivan Calixto is back to discuss.
