10 Most Irritating Characters In Comic Book Movie History

7. Catwoman (Halle Barry) - Catwoman

cat I am not even sure where to begin here. Some say Catwoman is the worst comic based movie ever and it is hard to argue that claim. Is that Halle Barry€™s fault, maybe since she was the character. However, Catwoman€™s annoyance comes from the fact of what potential she had as a star of her own film. Nothing of Michelle Pfeiffer or Julie Newmar resonates in this version besides the fact that there is some sort of cat cult with cat women all through the ages. In other words five minutes into the film everyone is like €œHuh, I thought she was a burglar with at thing for Batman?€ The Dark Knight Rises attempted to take Catwoman back to a basic approach and it worked mostly. No overly complicated explanation of why Catwoman was different was necessary. She just was and she worked. No one batted an eye when Ertha Kitt took on the role. She just purred her way right to it. That is how Hallie Barry should have been able to do it as well. Sometimes when you muddle around too much, you destroy the essence of the character and Barry€™s Catwoman just seemed like the character in name only. She missed the mark due to a bad script and bad idea, both of which are very annoying.
