When the Joker (JASON SPISAK) tricks Superman (NOLAN NORTH) into releasing Gotham\u2019s most villainous rogues from Arkham Asylum, it\u2019s up to Robin the Boy Wonder (SCOTT MENVILLE), Cyborg (KHARY PAYTON) and Wonder Woman (GREY GRIFFIN) to save the day.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Meanwhile, Batman\u2019s vacation is anything but relaxing as he, Batgirl (SARAH HYLAND) and Nightwing (WILL FRIEDLE) discover a fiendish plot by Deathstroke (JOHN DIMAGGIO) and the sinister Bane (ERIC BAUZA) to create an army of mass destruction!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/i.imgur.com\/YMEXbXs.png\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"border-screencapture aligncenter\" title=\"Justice League: Gotham City Breakout\" src=\"http:\/\/i.imgur.com\/YMEXbXs.png\" width=\"650\" height=\"366\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Quick Hit Review: <\/strong>I consider these direct-to-video LEGO releases to be stop-gaps for the main course, namely <em>The LEGO Movie 2<\/em> and <em>LEGO Batman<\/em>. These have lower production value and the writing doesn\u2019t even compare where the jokes mostly elicit, at most, chuckles. That said, the animation itself isn\u2019t terrible and the voice talents do give it their all but make no mistake, <strong><em>LEGO DC Super Heroes: Justice League: Gotham City Breakout<\/em><\/strong> is geared more towards younger viewers but thanks to a short 75-minute running time, it\u2019s tolerable for the adults.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"*\" src=\"http:\/\/www.moviemansguide.com\/images\/main\/bar_blue.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"3\" \/><\/p>\n<table id=\"review-content\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><strong>SPECIAL FEATURES \u2013 0\/5<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<hr \/>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: justify;\">This release comes housed in a cardboard box which also has a Nightwing LEGO Minifigure.
