Batman: The Brave and the BoldBatman: The Bold and The Brave DVD consists of a sequence of short cartoon films, each lasting about 15 minutes. All of them feature Batman and Robin, although the stories do not flow from one episode to another (they are stand alone narratives). 

Unusually, the cartoons appear to be of the drawn type, giving good reminiscence value for those of us who remember the Batman TV cartoons shown on British TV in the 1970s and 1980s.  They are colourful and action packed, with lots of comic strip style violence. 

My 12 year-old (who is off school sick) has just sat and watched the whole DVD and really enjoyed them, despite an initial reluctance and disappointment because he knows the recent live action cinema films (which are darker and more adult and in many ways quite different). 

I would recommend Batman: The Bold and The Brave to any parent for use on a rainy afternoon. Probably more aimed at boys than girls and suitable for ages four to 11 mainly.

Batman - The Brave And The Bold [DVD] from Warner Bros Entertainment is available from Amazon.
