Our take
This is a dark animated Batman story, not a light cartoon. An older Batman fights a brutal street gang, and a young teen joins him as Robin. News reports talk about kidnapped children and murders. Fine with a parent from 15. Younger kids will find the beatings and the crime talk too much
Uplifting themes
People argue about whether the city still needs someone to stand up for it An older hero tries to protect people, and a young helper wants to do the same
Story (may spoil tone)
Batman has not been seen for ten years. A new breed of criminal ravages Gotham City, forcing 55-year-old Bruce Wayne back into the cape and cowl. But, does he still have what it takes to fight crime in a new era?

Talk after watching
- Should a young teen fight crime because they want to help?
- When does protecting a city turn into hurting people?
