One thing going on for DC Universe Animated Original movies is, they're violent. But when in comes to violence, expect nothing less from Batman story lines. Afterall, Bruce Wayne's life was labored in violence.
The movie is a follow-up to Son of Batman, where Damien Wayne now living with his father Bruce, tries to fit in with the code and discipline that his father live by even if it is a total turnaround from what he was raised for by Ra's Al Ghul. Damien still acts the role of Robin against his father's will.
This plot of the story supplements the other plot concerning the Court of Owls. As the Owl's main assassin, Talon uses Robin's differences with his father as a perfect tool to corrupt him and join his group.
Story ends of course where Batman, Robin and Nightwing and the ever reliable butler, Alfred winning against Talon and his group and Robin deciding to seek help elsewhere on what he should really be.
This movie though an animation is not meant for kids. It is dark and violent.
The action scenes are too physical as you can see Batman and Nightwing being stabbed several times by the Owl's assassins.
The movie focuses on the relationship of Bruce and Damien. It also shows that the Dark Knight being as strong and authoritative as he is have his weakness when it comes to giving discipline to his own son. There were a couple of scenes in the movie where he suggests Damien could be helped by Monks in a monastery somewhere in the Himalayas. This shows that Batman how mighty he may be, may not be ready to be daddy after all:-)
The way Damien Wayne is being projected is little bit exaggerated. Even if he was trained by Ra's, I really do not think he's capable of defeating or out thinking both Batman and Nightwing. The physical built of a 10 year old boy dismantling a similarly trained adult with heavier built is astonishing for a fact. I really think they should have toned down Robin a little bit when he faced Nightwing and Batman. Just saying.
This movie is enjoyable but definitely not better than Batman: Under the Red Hood. Give it a try though.
