This review has some odd formatting. Is this the final version?

I agree about the animation styles of these DC films. I have a fair number of them, but am not really a fan of the animation which seems reminiscent of old Scooby-Doo cartoons. Seems like they could look better.

I was disappointed when I realized this was just a compilation of shorts, rather than a full-length Constantine film.

It seems that the review is not friendly to certain browsers. I saw what you are talking about when I looked at the review on Internet Explorer, in which none of the pictures were visible, and there were large gaps between the paragraphs. I opened the same page on Microsoft Edge and it displayed correctly. If anyone else has this issue, I recommend that you try a different browser.

The shorts have often been better than the features they accompany, so I certainly don't mind them being collected in one place for what I'll loosely call an "anthology film." I do find it odd that they didn't follow more of a theme and include the Spectre and/or Phantom Stranger shorts.

I agree. The additional shorts would have fit in well with the theme, and made the collection a better value.
