Merry Little Batman Reviews

If you are looking for the perfect Christmas movie for the family that isn't the same four you watch every year, Merry Little Batman is the perfect Christmas movie. This animated Batman Christmas film combines aspects from all of your favorite Christmas movies into one film.

Being a huge Batman fan and being the Christmas season, I had a blast with this one. The animation is odd but I eventually got used to it and I really liked the main story beats of this one. A really fun holiday watch.

Batman turns hippie

this is so precious!! :( i adored the animation style and the character designs were so unique and cool
the story had such heart and love put into it, i teared up multiple times :'( <3

- Weird, but interesting adaptation

Rating: 7.7/10

A refreshingly stylish and heartwarming holiday caper that reimagines Damian Wayne for a broader audience.

Highlights
- Unique Style: Ronald Searle-inspired animation is distinct and beautiful, giving the movie a storybook quality.
- Fun Premise: Home Alone meets Batman, with a younger Damian Wayne and a warm Bruce Wayne.
- Excellent Voice Cast: Yonas Kibreab and Luke Wilson shine as Damian and Bruce, with a standout Joker performance by David Hornsby.

Criticisms
- Derivative Plot: The "kid left alone fights burglars" concept is familiar, and some may find Damian's characterization too sanitized.
- Campy Villains: Bane, Poison Ivy, and Mr. Freeze are played for laughs, feeling less threatening.
- Polarizing Art Style: The unique style may not appeal to fans of traditional Batman animation.

Verdict
Merry Little Batman is a visual treat and a charming Christmas movie that proves Batman can be fun and family-friendly. Recommended for families and animation fans seeking something distinct.

Tomorrow we getting a full season of this!! Scarecrow didn’t even last 2 seconds after escaping Arkham Asylum 😭

Damian is funny

While some of the character designs were questionable, this had good animation and story. This was also Day 12 of my 12 Days Of Christmas challenge (full list on my page). Merry Christmas!

Are we entirely sure Alfred is not Oswald in disguise?

Super cute and unique take on Batman! Loved this movie!💚🦇🃏

Merry Little Batman was an absolute holiday delight. Such an enjoyable watch, both fun & touching. Is charming & beautiful, certainly a riff on many Christmas movies & Batman a like. A holiday warmth make that takes on its own tale of growth & appreciating each other.

Cool animation

Very cute and kinda refueled my love for this universe.

poison ivy looking like edna lord. also a dc version of home alone ?

I wanted to like it

Fun to make fun of

WB honestly needs to find a way to get there shit together. Wether it’s Coyote Vs Acme or the Lost potential to sequels to this movie. WB is just fucking up, if there New DCU doesn’t work there fucked as a company. The movie was good and all I give it an 7/10. Simple but sweet

Pretty fun if you’re a Batman fan, or maybe even if you’re not. But if you happen to be a really big Batman geek, there are definitely lots of inside jokes and references that are well worth the price of admission. I’d watch it again, but maybe next time with another super-fan.
