Such a frustrating disappointment
Just perfect...
This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.
One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.
With this final installment in the "Son of Batman" trilogy, DC has shown that they know how to write damn good stories. Batwoman and Batwing, are great additions, and they both get to show off their stuff. This movie's so good, it's made "Mystery of the Batwoman" obsolete. With the Bat-family now at six members counting Alfred, the action in this is almost nonstop. The story's awesome and ties up the trilogy great. The animation is stunning, the action's incredible, and there are a lot of twists and turns along the way. Fantastic in every single way. Well folks, that's it, only one animated Batman movie remains, and I think you know what it is. It comes out on DVD tomorrow, and I'm gonna have a review for it the second those credits roll. The grand finale of the Bat-a-thon is less than 24 hours away! Next stop, "The Killing Joke".
Although it's clear the plot is aimed at mature audiences, it's also without doubt that young children and teens will be watching. It's Batman! So why is it necessary to make one of the characters a lesbian? This kind of corruption and filth is already injected into nearly every show on TV. Every movie coming out of Hollywood. Now kids can't even watch Batman without being subjected to this perversion! It's either pandering liberal interests, or it's purposeful manipulation and programming. Either way, it's crap! I don't even watch TV anymore for just this reason, and now they've taken Batman, too! Wow, still not enough lines? How many more ways can I say it? It's crap! It's CRAP! Queers and lesbians! Total B.S.!
DC animation seems to be going downhill these days. They're trying a retro style of anime and it's just not working. Watching this film is like watching Akira back in the 80's. It just feels tired now.I'm guessing the writers had 30 minutes worth of good ideas for this film and just tried to fluff out the rest. They tried to hide the poor story behind lots of cleavage and foul language (Not that I have a problem with either of those under normal circumstances).Given the characters involved, this film should have been fantastic. It's not.Don't bother.
DC had the best animated films. Especially the Batman stuff but now.. we get pure garbage. After Flashpoint Paradox (which is one of the best DCU films), it has just been going downhill and not stopping. There was a little bit of hope with Batman Vs Robin and even the animated Suicide Squad movie but after watching this trash.. after watching Batman Bad Blood, I am officially giving up on all upcoming DC animated films. They can wait for Cartoon Network for all I care.I guess my main issue is Batwoman. She takes up the majority of this film and makes it nearly unwatchable. The people marketing this lame piece of trash knew they couldn't call the movie "Bat-woman: Bad Blood" because no one would buy it. Batwoman is a painfully one dimensional character and boring as all heck. She is just upset off all the time and seems to only care about herself. In the beginning of the film her lack of training nearly gets Batman killed and thought dead by everyone. When discussing Batman's death, she doesn't seem to care much. On top of that, this stupid movie forces us to watch Batwoman's dating life and her relationship with her father and other things unrelated to the plot whatsoever. And we get to she her lame origin story and it is laughably awful.Basically, she walks home drunk from a nightclub and almost gets jumped by a few guys but is saved by Batman. After she doesn't thank Batman for saving her, she sees the Bat Symbol in the sky and gets inspired. I wish I was making this up. The last thing I have to call BS on about Batwoman is her fight at the end of the movie with Talia Al Ghul. She goes toe to toe with Talia Al Ghul without missing a beat. Normally, I would have no problem with this but at the beginning of the film we literally see Batwoman having trouble with C-list villains. So I guess that must make Talia Al Ghul, one of Batman's deadliest villains a C-List enemy. Man I hate this movie.I guess I should actually review this piece of trash, given the fact I wasted my time watching it but I just wanted to give you a little introduction about my history with DC's animated film universe. Anyway, it is hard to pick just one thing that makes this film hard to watch. This review is getting too long and honestly there is a ton of things to complain about. The pacing of the movie just terrible. The action is okay but the storyline makes you not really give a care. One last thing, PLEASE STOP GIVING BATMAN A GUN!!! What the heck is wrong with DC nowadays???? We all know they give Batman a freaking gun just for the stupid shock value but OMGoodness IT IS GETTING OLD! I was laughing my booty off when it happened but it was at the end of the movie and I already pretty much given up all hope.I had to edit the living daylights out of this review because of all the prohibited words used. This freaking movie..
