Superman & Batman : Apocalypse (2010) 7/10

Starring : Kevin Conroy, Tim Daly, Summer Glau, Andre Braugher, Susan Eisenberg
Director : Lauren Montgomery
Running Time : 79 mins

Batman (Conroy) finds a mysterious alien girl named Kara (Glau) who turns out to be related to Superman (Daly). She is soon whisked off to Paradise Island by Wonder Woman (Eisenberg) who tries to teach her how to use her new-found powers, but when Darkseid (Braugher) attacks he kidnaps Kara and takes her to Apokolips, where Kara decides she wants to stay.

I loved the simple animation in this direct-to-video movie, and this actually felt like there was a storyline and not just a series of random fight scenes. Granted, there were a lot of fight scenes, but they felt like they were there for a reason and not just for spectacle. All in all this is a pretty decent adaptation.
