Review Date:

Batman: Mask of the Phantasm remains a compelling, well-written film with solid video and audio on Blu-ray, but the release is sparse on extras.

Disc Release Date

DTS-HD MA

Video: 72

Batman: Mask of the Phantasm’s 1080p Blu-ray presentation, available in both theatrical 16x9 and television 4x3 aspect ratios, boasts solid clarity, defined colors, and excellent black levels, despite occasional noise and softness in specific scenes. This transfer significantly surpasses the DVD in fidelity and color accuracy.

Audio: 64

Batman: Mask of the Phantasm's 2.0 DTS-HD Master Audio track, while lacking in immersive surround sound, delivers clear dialogue, robust musical width, and satisfactory action clarity across the front stage. A 5.1 mix could have enhanced the experience, but the stereo track remains impressive for its limitations.

Extra: 26

The Blu-ray of Batman: Mask of the Phantasm disappointingly includes only a rough trailer (1080p, 1.78:1, DTS-HD Master Audio 2.0, 1:05) as a bonus, leaving fans craving more supplemental content like commentaries found on the Batman: The Animated Series DVDs.

Movie: 83

Mask of the Phantasm masterfully intertwines Batman's brooding origin story with his most poignant romance, showcasing Kevin Conroy's iconic voice, a riveting non-linear narrative, and superb noir aesthetics, albeit suffering from pacing issues in flashback sequences. Blu-ray release boasts crisp visuals but limited packaging.
