About

Not for you if you want a serious Batman story with little silliness; if you enjoy The Lego Movie (2014) or Incredibles 2 (2018), you’ll likely have a fun time.

Pros: fun Batman parody; clever pop-culture humor; surprisingly touching | Cons: fast pacing; relies on references; mixed quality opinions
