Here's When You Can Stream The Batman At Home
"The Batman" is still dominating the box office, but the world's greatest detective is finding a way into our homes even as it continues to kick butts in theaters.
Released on March 4, 2022, in the United States to wide acclaim, the film is the latest blockbuster to show that audiences are willing to risk their health and venture into theaters in the middle of a global pandemic to see men in spandex punch people in the face.
Still, when it comes to "The Batman," it's easy to see why. Matt Reeves' successfully reinvents Gotham City and the Caped Crusader, managing to stand out from other Batman movies with a darker, yet still quite funny, detective film with a sad boy Batman whose only friend is supposed to put him in prison.
Don't just take my word for it, in /Film's review, Chris Evangelista wrote:
"There will be plenty of people who feel they are burned out on all things Batman. That there couldn't possibly be room for yet another retelling of this same old tale. But "The Batman" defies the odds. It's epic, mythic, pulpy blockbuster filmmaking at its best."
