The young protégé of one of the world's greatest superheroes has his first encounter with an old nemesis in this direct-to-video feature adapted from the popular animated series Batman Beyond. Terry McGinnis (Will Friedle) has taken over the crime-fighting responsibilities of Batman from aging Bruce Wayne (Kevin Conroy), but while Terry has learned a great deal from Wayne, he's never heard the startling truth about Batman's final encounter with his arch-enemy, The Joker (Mark Hamill). However, when The Joker returns to Gotham City as vicious as ever, Wayne decides that it's time that the new Batman learned all there is to know about the green-faced terror before he can bring the city to its knees -- especially after Bruce is attacked by his one-time rival. Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker also features the voice talents of Melissa Joan Hart and Angie Harmon. Upon its initial release, the movie sparked some controversy among Batman Beyond fans because of last-minute edits that toned down the violence level. However, it was eventually released on DVD in an uncut format. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

| It's Batman with a much faster pace. He can fly now, and kick way more ass, but it's still dark and maintains it's detective story nature. |

| it was a lot better than i thought it would be. if you don't like the sytle of animation from the cartoon series then stay away, the movie uses the same exact style. i've always liked that style of animation. the story is decent, i didn't care for the explanation of the "return of the joker" but there was also flashbacks to the old batman which was really cool. |
