Teen Titans Go! & DC Super Hero Girls: Mayhem in the Multiverse (2022)
Nominated for a 2023 Annie Award, Teen Titans Go! & DC Super Hero Girls: Mayhem in the Multiverse sees Lex Luthor unite the world’s super-villains to capture all of Earth’s super heroes, until only the DC Super Hero Girls are left to stop the Legion of Doom. Our heroes must cross dimensions to rescue their fellow super heroes from the Phantom Zone, but a fortuitous wrong turn leads them to Titans Tower – where they find much-needed allies in the Teen Titans! The young super heroes discover their combined strength – and sense of humour– are essential to save the day in this blockbuster event!
Common Sense Media recommends the film for ages 9+, saying, “This meta crossover movie is silly fun with lots of adventure,” but, they add, “It’s got a whole lot going on… so it helps to be familiar with at least one of the superhero teams.” The action focuses mainly on the DC Super Hero Girls, but fans of the signature humour of Teen Titans Go! will find plenty to giggle at too.
