Okay, this is the first movie I have ever reviewed based on the trailer alone.
When the trailer started out, the tone of the narrator's voice gave me high hopes for a superb schlock film. But alas, as the tedious minute and a half wore on it became apparent this did not live up to the reputation of quality schlock; it was just plain bad.
It's not often one can judge a movie from just the trailer, but at about the 45-second point I became judge, jury and executioner, quite confident in my decision to NOT turn that wasted time into an hour and a half. All I want to say to the producers of this film is THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU for releasing a trailer and saving us all from spending our time attempting to watch the actual movie itself.
Up until this film I thought spoiler trailers were a bad thing.

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.
Man just looking at the trailer was enough for me, this movie was made with no budget and a old batman suit i guess.
All those actors if you read the bio are all in the same bad movies its like they follow each other onto other bad bad projects.

There's hardly anything to recommend this bottom-of-the-barrel cheap attempt to be a superhero thriller with poor results in all departments and not even room for involuntary laughs.
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.
