I own this on DVD.
Hands down my favorite movie from the animated DC series. Very well done, I love the story and the ideas. The characters are great, the twists good. Just an all around great movie. Even if it did spawn the... iffy New 52 universe and continuity as a consequence of The Flash's actions. But this movie on it's own is wonderful. It's so far my favorite animated DC film, and my second favorite animated super hero movie. (the first being Marvel's Planet Hulk).
Mistake Status: Thoroughly searched, but will go back through it again in the near future before moving into the continuation of the DC animated Universe
Continuity mistake: After Aquaman finds Orm dead and sees the carnage of the battle, Wonder Woman comes up behind him and stabs his back with her sword. He falls to his knees and she walks around in front of him, and as she does you can see there is no blood on her sword. But then she holds the sword to his neck in a close up and suddenly the sword is covered in Aquaman's blood. (01:10:15)
Deathstroke: That's a lot of death... Even for me.
Question: Barry returns to his fixed timeline, meets Batman and gave him the letter Thomas Wayne's Batman wrote. Then, the post credit scene shows the portals appears that will lead to Darkseid's invasion. The question is in the following Justice League War movie, the heroes seems like they never know each other. Did Barry return before the Justice League ever assembled? If so, why does Barry in the Justice League War movie seem to be so amused when he knows Batman is real? He even greeted Batman for the first time and addressed him as "Sir Batman." I cannot find any good articles on net to explain this contradiction.
Chosen answer: Despite the ending in Flashpoint to indicate a Darkseid invasion, War is not a sequel. It's a reboot. While both films were part of the DC Universe Animated Original Movies series, War is the first movie of the series that is now part of the DC Animated Movie Universe. This is also why the voice actors are different.
