    So bad it makes me want to destroy my TV and never watch a movie ever again

    Five words: WHAT THE HELL IS THIS?? Rise of the Black Bat is a cheap...and I mean CHEAP....attempt at cashing in on the wave of superhero films. Black Bat is Batman without pointy ears and has the exact same origin story as Daredevil. What? They couldn't continue fleshing out this "superhero"? Maybe he was part of a Weapon XYZ program and has ada..I mean titanium claws that come out of his hands? Maybe he can shoot webs like some sort of spider...guy? Please, do yourself a HUGE favor and avoid this garbage at all costs. For high quality entertainment with real superheroes, go watch Marvel's Daredevil on Netflix instead or watch Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight Rises...which coincidentally (or not) came out in 2012, the same year that this apparent failed cash grab came out. The Rise of the Black Bat should be the DOWNFALL of D-list Hollywood hacks trying to cash in on quality entertainment but alas...we'll only see more of this garbage.

    Almost drove me Bat Sh*t Crazy!!!!!!!!!!!

    First off i want to say, what do you expect from a bunch of pot smoking Canadians?

    Secondly, ..... Hang on I'm looking for the right sequence of words to address this..... wow, is it okay to point out that many negative infractions about a movie than border lines criminal?

    Cast and crew should be taken out in public and Caned.

    I hope this is ten lines because i cant think of anything else to say except save yourself the time and don't watch this movie, it's horrible! I will re-iterate ( still not 10 lines) save yourself the trouble

    find something else to watch

    Fall of the Black Bat

    There's nothing decent to be said of this film. Well, there are a couple of actresses who are easy on the eyes. However, other than a few pretty faces, this film is inauspicious. I am unable to come upon reason to suggest this film to anyone.

    Although, if you are one who is able to realize a farcical value in such enervating films which suffer; unpropitious lighting and sound; unsightly or unimaginative set and costume design; languid scripts containing often nonsensical, diaphanous or practically nonexistent plots (porno plots); vacuous and often nonsensical directing which acts to only further disquiet and confound the often exanimate, diffident, unseasoned or untalented actors who have likely been left nonplus and prostrate in the wake of a tenuous or execrable script, then this movie may be just what you're looking for.

    My wife enjoyed this movie. She said it was so bad that it was funny. I think her to suffer a slightly skewed perspective.

    uhh are you serious right now??

    This movie is extremely boring and it looks like its created in a hostage situation. The budget looks like a less than a dollar movie and it looks like the director gave the actors a dime for their """amazing""" acting.

    The script is oh my goodness, this looks like a script for a kindergartener play.

    This terrible movie has caused me to be too dull to go to school and i failed my easiest quiz i have ever took. Not even the costumes have reached their 5 dollar budget, even i can make a good costume in just within 5 dollars. Also i bet that the director is too drunk and they created this film.

    One star for the voice over guy in the trailer

    I see that the majority of the budget went to the voice over guy in the trailer. If that doesn't tell you anything, good luck watching this pile of dog poo.
