Devilishly Clever
8 December 2018
I ended up watching this as a bit of a joke. Joke was on me, it turned out to be quit good. I won't spoil it, but it isn't just an animated rehash of the 60s television show. There are some great, esoteric lore references. It always retains its 60s style, including goofy riddles, and fascicle plot points, i.e. the Bat Rocket, but that is the fun of it. It seriously hangs a lamp shade on the source material while also poking some fun at the later day grittiness of the current Dark Knight.

One of the best things is when it's all over and during the credits Batman and Catwoman perform some strange dance moves while inter-cutting to Batman doing various things with bombs. If you don't know why that is funny, you should probably catch up on some old 60s Batman.
