Roxana Hadadi New York Magazine/Vulture In its 10-episode first season, Caped Crusader takes the foundational aspects of the [Noie] genre — paranoia, conspiracy, and dramatic chiaroscuro visuals — and gives them a spin recognizable to Batman fans but not limiting to newbies. Sep 17, 2024 Full Review Craig Mathieson The Age (Australia) You could be forgiven for wondering whether the character of Batman, everyone’s favourite caped vigilante billionaire, has much more to offer storytellers, but this is proof otherwise. Aug 15, 2024 Full Review Ben Travers IndieWire Casual fans should be happy, die-hards will find plenty to savor, and a new generation may be about to discover a Bat-series to call their own. Rated: B+ Aug 5, 2024 Full Review Patrick Beatty ABC4 Utah The long list of Batman villains return, but with new looks, and altered origins that feel fresh but continue to honor the legacy these characters bring with them. Aug 12, 2025 Full Review John Daniel Tangalin The Cinema Spot Poverty is a heavy issue in the Western world, and the disparity between the impoverished and the affluent can be felt. The show guides fans to The Narrows and the suburbs, juxtaposing different areas and the people who live there. Rated: 4.5/5 Jul 18, 2025 Full Review William Schwartz Book & Film Globe What makes Batman: Caped Crusader so frustrating is that it’s very close to having a novel interpretation of Batman.

Jason C What is people on I finished it and it was good I liked all the villains and it is based off golden age comics and thats why all the costumes were weird the fencing scene that Batman and clayface did is a direct emage to the mask of Zoro because it's in 1940 it takes place in 1940s because it's the golden age so it's the right timeline I don't care about the changes to the villains well there not it's from the comics bullock was a villain first and then was turned into a hero and pennyworth was fat from the golden age turned skinny if you did not like any of the changes go cry to the creater and the person that did the batman 2022 helped on this show matt Reeves so I'm excited for season 2. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/20/25 Full Review Ethan L. Very good. Compared to the 90s series. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/14/25 Full Review Emmanuel S They changed too many elements from the epic original series. If it ain’t broke don’t change it. Just come up with new episodes from original series the blueprint is already there. The new cape crusader is horrible story line, change of characters is horrible, the penguin is a woman. 0 stars for me Rated 1 out of 5 stars 09/28/25 Full Review Chet Y Good start to a new batman series Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 08/16/25 Full Review Viggo F Batman caped crusader is what I wanted The series shows that Batman works in any era The noir style is great and you get the feeling that you are in the 40s where the time is played. The series shows so well the chemistry with Bruce and Alfred the voice actors are fitting to the characters. You can watch it with your children but be prepared there are disturbing scenes Rated 4 out of 5 stars 08/07/25 Full Review David R Caped Crusader pics up with the style, swagger and authenticity that Batman The Animated Series had. Nostalgia with modern sensitivity and perfect detective-style noir. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/05/25 Full Review Read all reviews
