Untethered to Batman's established continuity, it allows the filmmakers to explore different facets of the familiar hero and rearrange the players around him in interesting ways.

Rated: 3/4

The Movie Sleuth

Gotham by Gaslight falls into the trap of equating adult themes with sex and gore instead of contemplating complex ideas.

Rated: 5/10

Midwest Film Journal

Not much more than a Victorian aesthetic, and even so it lacks the style necessary to properly capture it.

This creepy chiller is a perfect mix of murder mystery and superhero caper.

Violence, some sex in Victorian-era Batman tale.

Lyles' Movie Files

A decent addition to the Warner Animation ranks, but there's enough changes that fans of the original story might be disappointed it strayed so far from the source material.

Rated: 6/10

I loved this. A unique twist on Batman, as he hunts down Jack The Ripper and gives us a look at the detective behind the action hero. Plus, an abundance of cool easter eggs. Absolutely loved this.
