'Gritty prequel about Batman's butler' sounds like a parody of unnecessary superhero spin-offs, but against all odds... it rules? Pennyworth genuinely rules!

Pennyworth is not your run-of-the-mill spy thriller. It's also not a superhero project in the slightest bit. For better or for worse, this quirky little series is in a genre all its own. Epix's Pennyworth is certainly worth your time.

It is the definition of a romp, and as long as it doesn't force battiness into the plot, it has the makings of a royal treat.

There's something very compelling about Pennyworth as a comic adaptation that's allowed to be more noirish and cultish than cartoonish, and it adds to Epix's strong, growing bench.

Pennyworth would be more fun if it ditched the origin aspect and just told a story of its own, without feeling the need to tie us into a franchise to which the show is only the most tenuously connected.

A fantastic new edition to the Batman mythology that doesn't use its connection to the Caped Crusader as a narrative crutch.

The action's pretty nice, the acting's inoffensive, the plotting's fair and the episodes are reasonably paced (for the most part). But that's it. It's not interesting. It's not cool. It's just... okay.
