Movie Reviews of Batman - The Movie

Movie Review: Classic Kitsch 60s camp caper
Summary: 4 Stars

DO NOT get this for superlative acting or cinematic brilliance. It's just SO silly that it is priceless and highly enjoyable. The villains are a bit weak especially the Joker, but the Dynamic Duo are as camp and corny as ever. Could have been a little bit shorter. Otherwise classic silly entertainment - the shark and bomb scenes are so ridiculous they have to be seen to be believed. Hilarious!

Movie Review: Riddle Me This!
Summary: 5 Stars

For a segment of the Baby Boomers, Batman is Adam West, Robin is Burt Ward and comic book fun reigns supreme. Then, a "Dark Knight" would be spelled a bit differently and mean cloud cover at midnight.

This 1966 movie features four villains - The Joker (Cesar Romero), The Penguin (Burgess Meredith), The Riddler (Frank Gorshin), The Catwoman (Lee Meriwether) - who combine forces as The United Underworld, with the goal of turning the nine United World Security Council members into multicolored crystals. It is up to the Caped Crusader and the Boy Wonder to save the world from this fearsome foursome.

Originally planned as the pilot film for the TV series, the movie was produced between the show's first and second seasons. The movie is a fun romp of 105 minutes - there are several bonus features included - and clearly shows that The Joker isn't alone in saying, "A joke a day, keeps the glum away!"

Movie Review: Hilarious!
Summary: 5 Stars

This is the other half of Batman. You've got the Christian Bale one, and this one. Both are great. The you got Tim Burton's and Joel Shumacher's uneven films, that are meh. See this!

Movie Review: HOLY SMOKE BATMAN! NICE DVD EDITION!
Summary: 5 Stars

Well after watching a few of the newer Batman films, I figured it was time to revisit the original Batman Movie from the mid 60's. Both DVD releases are the same, so if your looking to buy this movie, buy the cheapest one!

The film itself looks clean with vibrant colors and clear sound. This is such a fun movie for fans of the series because it has so many Bat-thingys! The word 'camp' should be defined by this film with the entire cast whooping it up to make this a fantastic and entertaining cartoon like movie. The action never stops from the opening with Batman fighting a shark while hanging from a ladder attached to the Bat-copter to the Bat-boat VS Penguin submarine battle finale!

The DVD transfer is excellent and there are many cool extras to keep Bat-fans busy for a while. Both releases have the same extras and quality transfer. Till the next Batman review...... same Bat time.....same Bat channel!

Movie Review: The Original Riddler!!! Why this movie is worth buying!!!!!
Summary: 5 Stars

If you can't wait for the next film after Batman Begins and The Dark Knight, get this 1960's classic; especially if you can't wait to see the Riddler and are tired of the Jim Carrey version.

Whether you prefer Christian Bale or Michael Keaton, Adam West is easily arguable as the second best (if not the first) Batman/Bruce Wayne.

Not only does this movie have the Riddler (Frank Gorshin), it also includes a mousestached-Joker (Cesar Romero), a Grumpy Old Men-Penguin (Burgess Meredith), a really hot brunette-Catwoman (Lee Meriwether), and the most cliched-Robin (Burt Ward).

The Batcopter, Batboat, and Batmobile are all here too, with written-out word punches, kicks, and splashes.

The only thing missing from this movie is even more baddies. Two-Face, Mr. Freeze, and Poison Ivy should be in here as well to make it more campy.Clawed - The Legend of Sasquatch
