mask of the phantasm be one the best batman movie ever conceive . it give that dark brood look of the batman tv show and throw in an amazing original score and excellent voice act and and a storyline that encourage u to look at the batman story in a more human and emotional way . we have well establish bad guy instead of just have a guy escape from prison and we have strong inner conflict dilemma and very well draw action scene . the only downside be that it could have be long and although the rather short ( compare to most movie ) length do a good job of not make the flow feel dull or boring . i highly suggest this movie .
