Some thoughts on the first half hour

Regarding the first half hour, most people want to complain, thinking that it is forcibly dragging the time, and the plot is slightly out of line. Personally, I think that half an hour is really for the length of the film. After all, the original work is a comic with more than 40 pages.
However, the plot is not meaningless. This plot actually maps the relationship between the master and the clown through Batgirl and the little villain in the film (the name can't be remembered).
The villain has many tricks and is interested in Batgirl, and often calculates Batgirl and fights with her many times, making Batgirl passive. In the end, the little villain was still expressing his love to Batgirl when he was arrested, and there was a comeback of "I will definitely come back". It even makes people think that after he escaped from prison, he continued to commit crimes, attracting Batgirl and continuing to entangle with her. Obviously, the relationship between Batgirl and the villain is very reminiscent of the relationship between the master and the clown. Moreover, the master also tried his best to prevent Batgirl from contacting the villain in the plot. Some people said that it was the master's arrogance, but it was not. That's because the master realizes that the relationship between Batgirl and the villain may become like he and the Joker are both caught in the whirlpool. This half hour is also meaningful. Of course, that field battle is really worth complaining... just add a little weight to the R-class...

    It's still too fragmented to think about, I was going crazy when Barbara knocked down Batman for the first half hour. Double-check that this is really a deadly joke, I've read the comics, don't lie to me. Fortunately, the clown appeared, and everything went back to normal. It's not as good as the comics, for sure, the clown's memories in the comics, everything is gray, shrimp, red hood... but it's so bright red. There is absolutely no such thing in the animation.

    Batman slept Gordon's daughter, the Joker maimed her, the picture quality is better, there are many flashbacks, the comics are also playing deep, some parts are not understood

    Francesco: I lost four men yesterday.

    Paris: Four idiots. They said they could knock out the tracker on the armored car. I don't think they could plug a computer in their ass.

    Francesco: Do I care? I'm out a hundred grand thanks to your friggin' fiasco. And what do I get for it? The Bat and his bitch breathing down my neck. Bottom line, you're gonna give me my money back, nephew, every cent. Otherwise, you're gonna become a very distant relative, very soon. Capisce?

    Paris: Okay, unc, whatever you say.
