Merry Little Batman

Merry Little Batman puts our hero in the backseat as Damian Wayne gets his chance to shine in this colorful holiday hero flick. Looking as if it were ripped from a Sunday morning newspaper comic, the animation throughout the film gives a childish whimsy and added it's own charm to Gotham. While it looks quite cute, the story feels repetitive and annoying as Damian embarks on his own Home Alone-esque adventure. The beginning of Damians solo adventure has the most fun, but once they leave the manor, it starts to drag in parts and become a bit boring. Most of the voice work is entertaining, but some of them did not fit the designs of the character, leaving some of them feeling a bit disconnected at times. Unfortunately, Merry Little Batman may fall into obscurity in the coming years, as a rewatch is not in my cards.

A very fun and well made movie! It's the right amount of comedy and heart and Batman action. An original story with fun references all the way through for hard-core Batman fans. But at the same time just enjoyable Christmas movie with warm fuzzy feeling for all! All the voice actors fit the their roles perfectly, and the interpretation of their characters is spot on for what it is, and yet true to the comic books. This is obviously made by people that are true fans of Batman and had a clear and deliberate story to tell and everything worked together, nothing was wasted and the pacing was fantastic, and you knew you were in good hands as you watch! Enjoy!

Watch it for Batman & Luke Wilson with some great actors from other well known shows and movies. If you are a Batman fan like myself you will love this quirky yet enjoyable and never before presentation of The Dark Knight.

Mike Roth's Merry Little Batman is a great cartoon for families. The art style is funny and reminds us of cartoons from Cartoon Network in the 2010s, like Regular Show. Damian Wayne, Batman's son, is usually shown in one way, but this movie changes that. It's really funny, and the voices, especially Luke Wilson as Batman, are excellent. It's a perfect cartoon for the holidays, with a good mix of heart and humor thanks to the writers Morgan Evans and Jase Ricci from Teen Titans Go!.

I was not sure if this movie was going to come out or not, but without knowing, it randomly comes out on the Amazon Prime streaming service; all I knew was that the movie was a mix of Batman from the DC universe and the movie Home Alone (1990). The movie Merry Little Batman (2023) has an interesting but nice-looking animation style, some funny moments, and a premise that felt stretched out; it follows the Home Alone (1990) premise in the first half of the movie, but then keeps going, and does something else that I was not expecting with a different premise that could have worked as the full movie and not just second to last half of the movie.

Luke Wilson as Bruce Wayne/Batman was not a choice I would have made to voice this character, but he still does a good enough job with him getting at least most of what is good about Batman, while also being funny occasionally. Bruce Wayne/Batman's son Damian Wayne voiced by Yonas Kibreab, who also gives a good enough performance, is trying to be like his father and be the next Batman, even though Bruce Wayne/Batman keeps saying he is not ready; Damian will stop Wayne Manor from being broken into, but for the whole movie he is going around Gotham City taking down well known villains and trying to get back his utility belt that his father got him.

The movie has well known villains such as The Joker, Mr. Freeze, The Penguin, Poison Ivy, and Bane who all have weird looking designs and weird sounding voices; The Joker is just trying to destroy Christmas and Damian along with Batman will stop him, there is not much to say other than that. The animation gave the characters weird designs, but also the backgrounds and look of everything had nice colors; also, the look of this made it look like a movie that would play on Cartoon Network. The movie does feel a bit stretched out, but I was entertained enough while watching it with its funny moments and references, along with its fun action.

Merry Little Batman (2023) is an entertaining, funny, enjoyable enough of a DC universe Christmas movie, it does also seem a bit too child friendly at times, so this movie will entertain little kids; if you are a DC fan you will either like it for it being an entertaining animated Batman movie, or you will not like it because of it being too child friendly. This movie is not something to rush onto Amazon Prime and watch; this is just a Batman Christmas movie made by DC, that should be enough to make this an enjoyable and entertaining time.

It's actually good. I mean way better then I thought it was going to be If you're expecting the typical bat story you'll be disappointed It's not Adam West zap pow It's not Tim Burton, Frank Miller, or something a true fan would pick up off the rack on Monday It is the Kodachrome day dream you had after reading the latest issue when you were 8... with the Vandal and Kinks soundtrack you discovered later in life Worth a watch for life long fans.and those that like comics because no matter how old you are you're still a kid that believes that when you grow up you could be the greatest superhero.
