Deathstroke: Caballeros y dragones

Deathstroke is known to be cool badass character.

In this series he's violent and still kind of unusual.

The movie is about Slade trying to save his son and learning about his past affairs.

The movie is really violent. Slade and everyone else isn't afraid to shed blood.

The villain is the Jackal, Hive and Slade's Children that he has betrayed. The villains were ok. Honestly The Ex-Wife was more of a threat. Everyone else just seemed like they were there for Slade to kill. They are more like a soap opera villain. Lastly, Jackals motivation didn't make sense at all and was very puny.

The voice work is alright. Nothing to praise or rip on. The Animation looks 75% complete. It looked incomplete. It looks similar to Avengers Assemble animation.

There's a lot of hand-to-hand fighting done and despite bad animation the movie fight sequences were great.

Overall an okay solo outing for the merc with an eye.

What can be learned? Hey Marvel, A Punisher series can be done.

Verdict: A merc with an eye

When written by someone who actually cares about the source material, Deathstroke the Terminator has less to do with Teen Titans and more to do with being the shadowy scourge of 3rd world dictators and despots across the globe (for a hefty price). This is a character that can hold his own with Batman.

The story deserved better than cringe dialogue from the empowered when it's convenient ex-Wife. The tragic father routine loses all merit if you can't make the family dynamic in this story at least passable. Yet everyone's motivations seem completely at odds with with that end state. A strained relationship makes sense, but upon watching this you can't believe they ever cared about each other.

I know Greg Berlanti is the the DCEU rosters most consistent hit maker (except for Legends of Tomorrow, Batwoman, and late series Flash, and the unforgivable Stargirl), but a hard R rating is useless without a story to push it forward. Why is the script seemingly the last thing that people care about?

Animation was decent, plot was unoriginal with generic action/superhero cliches, runtime bloated with too much exposition and the characters were one-dimenional and predictable with no consistency in personality, motivation, powers or ability. Deathstroke is one of DCs coolest and most complex characters, yet they gave him a basic superhero revenge/redemption story.

Waste of a great character and as well as an R rating that adds nothing to the screenplay.

Animation was different which i liked very bold move in changing animation styles. But it works Violence is necessary R and used to its full potential. I need more though it was just a taste of what could be but i highly recommend it if you are like man and love the DC animated world that has been created.

Not much to say about this film.

It seems to have a brief origin story of Dealthstroke and the impact of him being a hired gun on his family which is a nice way to humanize him, especially in the latter half of the film with his son.

Nice fights, but that is about it. Not one of DC Animated best but I think it's serviceable if you want an animated feature on Deathstroke.
