This movie was a lot of fun. The first one was ok, but this one was an improvement in every way. I loved that the writers figured out that the Bat Family is basically a science ninja team and ran with the idea. I loved all the 70's throwback stuff. I really loved how much the writers seemed to know the characters. All of the characters kept their core aspects and there was some pretty cool and creative uses of their powers, which I always like to see.

Definitely not a flick to take too seriously, but its a good time for sure.

The only thing I didn't get was the different art styles. In Batman Ninja the art style changed for dramatic effect but in this one it seems to just switch back and forth kinda randomly. Maybe its the switch between 2D and 3D animation? Not sure, but it was distracting.

Somewhere in the multiverse there is a universe where Echo was the breakout, fan favorite character of Hawkeye and this show was warranted. Here on Earth 1218 I have no clue why this show exists. Echo is such a bad choice for a lead character they had to totally change her powers just so she wouldn't be exactly like Taskmaster.

The native American theme was great, Fisk was great, but everything else was kind of weak. I think a show about Kahhori, the native American character introduced in What If, would have been far more interesting.

I think this is Marvel/Disney corporate trying to popularize a lesser character like James Gunn did with GotG. It didn't work too well in this case. I gave the show a chance but I'm no more interested in Echo now than I was after Hawkeye.
