The Batman

February 16, 2022
Drawn from a popular action-adventure game series, it’s kind of surprising how old school this adaptation is. Settling into the well worn traditions of the Raiders, Mummy’s, and National Treasures, this one is only truly fun thanks to its very game cast.

There are one and a half reasons to watch this coming of ager. For some, those may be enough.
