Beware the Batman (2013–2014)
6/10
Sometimes looking to being different loses sight of the core values.

It's very simple, Beware the Batman is an attempt at rebooting the series. Unfortunately, dialogue is not consistent of characters, weak or just plain stupid.

Plots themselves are pretty straight forward, you can see them a mile away. Then there is hardly any detective work from Bats himself. All of it is almost pushed to Alfred.

Animation is another issue, the feel of the quality of the models and movements gives the impression that this is a budget series, the ugly stepbrother that no one likes. Action sequence which makes up the other third of the show's content is in a word boring. There is hardly any tension or innovation in Batman's moves. It all feels like quick cuts from one move to another.

As a stand alone series it passable but if compared to Batman: The Original Series and even Batman Beyond it is sub-par.
