More female DC hero focus in the animated universe is a great thing
Story-line wise not as great as the usual DC Animated Movies (in it's implementation, origin stories are always fun), but it was nice to see a new DC hero get some attention this time. Usually it's always just Batman as the focus. Her costume is quite different from the comics, I was disappointed in how they ended it with her new costume that's extremely generic. The first costume she made herself was a lot more eye-catching and symbolic but still a far cry from the comics overall yellow designs I've seen.With her final costume, you wouldn't be able to tell that this was Vixen if it was your first time seeing her after the comics. Way too much black and grey. She's not another Batman.In terms of the Blu-Ray that we get, only downside is that DC and Warner have decided to cheap out. There is one-disc, and instead of it having a colored disc it's just a dull see-through blue-ish colored disc. I buy these to collect them, this wasn't very nice. At the very least, the Blu-ray package was encased inside another identically-designed box. I've attached pictures to show what it looks like.Overall, I enjoyed the movie greatly. This also arrived quite quickly, especially considering I live in Malaysia it took about 2 weeks, I was expecting a month. Thanks for the quick service Amazon.

Good price for an equally good movie.
I enjoyed these webisodes on the CW Seed and the airing on the CW as a full length movie. It’s a nice addition to the Arrowverse explaining the lore and origin of Vixen.In this particular blu ray disc you get the movie and digital copy which I applied to my Vudu collection even though Ultraviolet shuttered mid 2019. As is customary of DCAU blu rays you get a documentary of the title character and top picks of Bruce Timm’s Episodes from Justice League Unlimited circa early 2000’s. If you don’t have DC’s streaming service and don’t feel like commercials on CW Seed this is a nice addition to any DC fans collection.

DC Does It Again!
I LOVED this movie! It was a great effort at her origin story and I'm really glad it showcases a female, comic book hero of color that many may have never heard of. I like the 'From the DC vault' selections one of which is one of my favs from JL Unlimited. It was also a nice touch to use the voice talents of the actors from the actual characters from the CW show so it came across as seamless. Good job DC Animation, I look forward to seeing more Vixen adventures!

Happy customer waiting for more DC works like this or better !!!
This is a great DVD Adventure and to add another new part of the DC world I hope that other characters are given the same attention and seem fair Shake in the DC world and make all of animes for them still there more of the fans of the DC Universe can bask in the glory of their favorite comic art form and see more of the world that they love and also help DC to make more money off of us yeah we know !!!

I am collector of the DC animated features, and this one fell a little short for me (keeping in mind most of them are 4-5 Stars for me) , I felt it was well animated, the voice acting was decent and the story over all was pretty good. The things that bugged me were rather than set it in the Animated DC (from the series Justice League War resides in) or just its own stand alone like many others they placed this Animated feature in the CWDCU (of which I am not a fan) and thus all the other heroes in it were based off that. Also not that I am complaining about the length of the feature but it felt like there were points where the feature would have ended then went on... Almost like this was intended for several features but then got cut down and squished in to one. All in all still enjoyable for a fan of DC comics and worth the $10

Take That, Wakanda!
This is the origin story of Vixen, a young woman brought to America and obsessed with finding out where she came from.Well, she finds out when a family heirloom (given to her when she was a girl) turns out to provide her (now a young adult) with the ability to use the powers of various animals -- the speed of a cheetah, the wings of an eagle, the underwater endurance of a fish, and so on.This follows the usual arc, more or less: we learn her backstory, we see her early experiences, and the a bad man appears that she defeats. And her horizons expand from just making Detroit more livable to joining the Justice League (or at least working with them outside of Detroit from time to time).It's well done, well-paced, and not nearly as long as the Wakanda films from Marvel.DCAU scores again!
