And that is not only the case for bad guys who try to fight that very fast heroine. This also really is the case as well for filmmakers. Everybody knows about that unsuccessful Halle Berry movie and opinions differ about Anne Hathaway's turn, but here in this short film I was not really impressed either. However, that probably had more to do with the unsatisfying story than with the character itself. It's just never edge-of-seat stuff. Eliza Dushku did the voice acting here and I quite like her as an actress. She did okay all in all with her voice in here I would say. The director is Lauren Montgomery, actually a very experienced filmmaker in terms of animated superhero work, so I am even more disappointing that this one here left me hoping for more. Same can be said about the writer, which is maybe the even bigger problem that Paul Dini did not really come up with a super-engaging story or villain. Anyway, all in all I cannot recommend this 15-minute short film from almost 5 years ago. I also watched the Jonax Hex DC Showcase and I thought that one was a lot better. Another problem I had here is Catwoman randomly stealing a motorbike from some punk. I know she is not clean-cut good (or evil) like Batman or Superman and she has more shades to her character, but still I found that somewhat annoying. Yeah, not recommended.
