paulavery This film is horrible. Thank you comedians who tear the crap out of this piece of garbage. At least they can make fun of this and don't make us see the whole sad mess!I feel this was some horrible attempt at heterosexual titillation. Crow T. Robot puts it best, "You know a movie is bad when it makes The Monkeys look good!"
Anders Twetman What was this about again? I just saw it and I already forgot, that's how boring it was. There is Batwoman, named so for no apparent reason, there are a bunch of pretty much useless sidekick batgirls, there is a villain in a black mask, a mad scientist, and a couple of henchmen and there is, ostensibly, a plot about a nuclear powered hearing aid. You might think then that this would be some kind of action movie, all be it a silly one. You would be wrong, most of the time the characters just stand around and talk (even the climax consist mostly of Batwoman and the villain talking) about unimportant things, every once in a while this talking is interrupted by lengthy scenes of a bunch of girls dancing (perhaps some sort of fan service). Somewhere towards the end, it seems they remembered there was supposed to be a plot, so they threw in an "action" scene which basically consists of a bunch of people running around in circles. That's it, except for the dancing and this "climactic battle scene" nothing happens in the entire movie.
dmanyc I've seen my share of superhero movies, but The Wild, Wild World Of Batwoman makes Catwoman look like Citizen Kane. Think I'm exaggerating? 1) Batwoman looks like Lady Gaga crossed with an aging Las Vegas showgirl. The strange costume, the nose mask, the large bat tattoo on her chest. No back story, no secret identity, no superpower of any kind. Basically a den mother for a bunch of go-go dancers. I mean, dancing Batgirls. Lamest. Superhero. Ever.2) Her Batgirls do, well, nothing except look hot, do a lot of dancing, and get kidnapped. None of them would make the first round of So You Think You Can Dance.3) The main villain Ratfink looks like El Santo the Mexican wrestler crossed with Zorro. Not very threatening. Even one kidnapped Batgirl yawns when he threatens to destroy the other kidnapped Batgirls.4) The mad scientist Dr. Neon looks like Dr. Clayton Forrester and talks like Ghandi. His big drug to use on the Batgirls...makes them dance. As if there isn't enough dancing in this film.5) The henchmen. Bruno is a bore, but the worst is Tiger. Tiger looks like the lost spawn of Lou Costello and Joe Pesci. What's with him constantly kidnapping that one Batgirl? Is he that desperate to get laid? He says she's the best dancer, but she dances like all the other Batgirls in the movie.6) And what's with the Batgirl holding Tiger's hand at the end? He kidnapped you. Twice. He drugged you. Twice. He tied a rope around your neck like a dog on a leash. And you go ballistic when he (deservedly) falls into the pool? If he looked like Brad Pitt or George Clooney, I'd understand. But he's just doughy and stupid.7) The overlong, useless séance scene. Who decided that we needed to hear a spirit that speaks "Chinese"?8) How cheap are the filmmakers that they steal, I mean, borrow scenes from The Mole People?9) Batwoman's lair is...basically a home that looks like it was borrowed from sitcoms filmed in California.10) Something about guarding a hearing aid. A freaking' hearing aid. My uncle, who's hearing impaired, uses a hearing aid. And no dancing Batgirls are guarding it. So what's so special about this hearing aid?11) The beginning of the film with three women, who are not even in the film after the credits roll, get in touch with Batwoman by...drinking yogurt? 12) While Batwoman is speaking with a representative from the AYJAX Development corporation (pronounced like AJAX but spelled with a Y), two Batgirls behind them are pulling on a horseshoe. I kid you not.13) Ratfink turns out to be the CEO of AYJAX. Lamest. Villain. Ever.14) A robbery turns into a murder. And what do the Batgirls do? Call Batwoman, who in turn calls police. Didn't it occur to them to maybe fight the bad guys? Basically they're the Go-Go Dancing Neighborhood Watch. A suburban dad's dream and a housewife's nightmare.If you must see this film, watch the MST3K version only.
Tobias_R Reading the comments of the people who've seen this "movie', I am struck that only a few appreciate just how staggeringly bad a film can be that botches camp. Since the intent of this film, as opposed to the execution, was to capture the broad comic spirit of the Batman show of the '60s, its failure to do so magnified the abysmal quality of the finished product. The only thing that intrigued me were the different films that this feature so shamelessly pilfered from. As many noted, The Mole People was represented here by snippets irrelevant to the main story. But, I wonder if anyone has tried to track down the other films that 'Batwoman' stole from. I suspect that bizarre sequence at the beginning where the Batgirls watch a mugging and subsequent murder, doing nothing about it, was actually from another film with footage of the onlooking Batgirls spliced in. That might explain why they just sat and watched, just like us, the audience watching this film. Otherwise, the only real virtue of this schlock was that it moved along until it finally collapsed at what might be charitably called a conclusion
