I liked this film a lot. It was a very interesting and revealing documentary about someone who I have respect for a long time. In 2003, Sandy Collora made a short film that had Batman against the Joker, aliens and the Predator. It owned SDCC that summer and was an overnight sensation and propelled the brash director into the Hollywood stratosphere. This is as complete a story as anyone could tell about the phenomenon that was "Batman Dead End" and its creator Sandy Collora. It was much more than I expected, Its very detailed and covers a lot of ground. It shows how powerful an artist Collora really is in every way. He made Batman cool again and showed WB the way. He still is the only director to ever put a real Batman on the screen right out of the comics. The studios with all their money still can't get it right. Neil Adams agrees in the documentary. This movie is very inspiring and anyone who wants to be a movie maker or artist needs to see this. It should be required viewing in film schools. I am looking forward to THE CIRCLE!
My only 2 gripes are the camera work is not good with the people being interviewed constantly going in and out of focus is totally distracting and not necessary. And why was Sean Clark in this film? Norman Reedus was not in Batman Dead End. What did he have to do with any of this and why are his opinions concerned? Maybe he is friends with the film makers. 7/10 is my rating. If they hired someone to focus the camera it would have been 8 or 9.
