Reviews
Scanialara You won't be disappointed!
Reptileenbu Did you people see the same film I saw?
Glucedee It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.
Ogosmith Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.
Mr-Fusion A wholly superior sequel, and I think what sets this apart from the first outing is the clear sense that the writers are really having fun with this. I don't think any character here comes out spotless (least of all Batman, whose insecurities are exploited for maximum laughs). The villains are paid more attention (specifically Luthor and Gorilla Grodd), but it's all silly. In the end, the big set piece is one disastrous beach day. That's the kind of inanity that makes this so fun.8/10
Horst in Translation (filmreviews@web.de) "Robot Chicken DC Comics Special II: Villains in Paradise" is the second of so far 3 short films in which the Robot Chicken do not exist and instead we see a story full of superheroes. And while I must say the first one was occasionally watchable, even funny at times, this one here is absolutely none of that. It is another step down and that is quite an achievement. This time, we have a romance relationship between the children of Superman and Lex Luthor in the center. The film is packed again with every superhero you can imagine, but most of them really only stand or sit there and add nothing to the movie. The fact that they had their own scenes in the first one really elevated that one. It's strange to see that they made a third one if these 22 minutes here were already quite unfunny. An even bigger mystery to me is how this one won an Emmy. Must have been really bad competition in the category last year or the voters simply have no taste. Even the somewhat famous voice cast (Molina, Hyland, Efron, Ribisi apart from Green) cannot elevate the mediocre material here. Not recommended.
