VIXEN: THE MOVIE
August 30, 2017  | By David Bianculli

CW, 8:00 p.m. ET

 

This is an observation, not a recommendation. But it’s worth explaining, because it’s yet another example of the CW pushing in so many chips on its bet regarding populating its schedule with programming from the DC Comics universe. The network already has series based on such DC characters and comics as Arrow, Gotham, Flash, Legends of Tomorrow and Supergirl. Now it’s taking a 12-part animated series from the CW Seed, Vixen, and re-editing it into a one-night movie offering, showcasing a DC Comics heroine, born in Africa, whose power derives from a family totem giving her the ability to access the power of animals.
