Does anyone here like the
BATMAN film series from the 1990's? It had three good movies and one lame one.
Batman (1989)A fantastic Tim Burton movie. Michael Keaton is great as Batman, and Jack Nicholson is creepy as the Joker. It had everything I expect from a Batman movie.
Batman Returns (1992)The sequel to
Batman, better than the original in some aspects, though a lot darker. The Penguin and Catwoman made great villains. I also loved the Batmobile's Batmissle feature. Is this the end of the Batmobile?
Batman Forever (1995)I wish Tim Burton would have directed this movie. Instead of Michael Keaton, we now have Val Kilmer. I would have prefered Keaton to return, but Kilmer does a great job as Batman. Why do we have a new car when the Batmobile was left intact in the last movie? Seeing the Batmobile's destruction would have had greater impact if it were Burton's Batmobile rather than a car we saw for half a movie.
Tommy Lee Jones was the perfect choice for Two Face, but did he have to play the character so goofy? Come on... Jim Carey, ew! I cannot stand him. The Ridler should have been played by a more serious actor. At least we got an introduction to Robin. Despite these complaints, it is a good movie. I loved the subplot of Bruce Wayne considering quitting as Batman.
Batman & Robin (1997)Uh...
