The Bat Nips (1997)

For Matthew Fromm's Bad Movie Review Senryu Challenge Thing!

By Paul StewartPublished about a year ago 1 min read

Awful... storyline?

The bat nips, bat nips, bat nips,

Worst. D.C. Movie.

Thanks for reading!

Author's Notes: For Matthew Fromm's Bad Movie Review Senryu Challenge thing. This is the worst DC movie, bar none. Okay, aside Green Lantern and Daredevil, but I didn't have high hopes for those. Batman, Batman Returns and Batman Forever, while flawed, were not nearly as bad as this heap of technicolour sh~~ola. Joel Schumacher is a great director, he did a reasonable job with the previous film, but, this is tripe. This is not a great example of his abilities.

Take part in the fun while you still can:

    Hahaha. I just read this three times before I realised what the bat nips where! 😅 I really need to go to bed. There’s gotta be drinking game for this bad movie surely.. 😆

    Could have been worse. At least they did a Bat-cup and not a true Bat-dick-print.

    Lol, haven’t seen this one. Although I love this genre, I Might have to take your word for it. Funny Senryu 😅

  • Testabout a year ago

    I'm sorry but Adam west is the OG batman.... and bat nips??? I feel like I've seen this movie but wasn't focused on that particular set of nipples... 😅

  • You’ve convinced me… definitely not keen to be bitten by a bat😬.

  • I'm not a DC fan. Not a Marvel fan either. So I've never watched this movie, lol. Loved your review 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

    Adam West and the old TV series rules! Holy heartbreak Batman! Batman Nips? Was that really the title? So glad I missed it! Funny Senryu, Paul!

    You're spot-on about the batman movies being a little blah......DC actually has so many other superheroes to explore and make movies out of, such as the Wonder Twins or Cyborg.

    I can not agree more on your assesment of this drab and lifeless movie.it started with the credit card joke fail "Batman never leaves home without it' And it continued to fall from there.

    What a great little haiku. The Batman movies were good, but there were too many actors playing him lately. I was kid of the 60's and watched Adam West as Batman. It was hokey but fun.
