When Tim Burton and Michael Keaton announced that they'd had enough of the Batman franchise, director Joel Schumacher stepped in (with Burton as coproducer) to make this action-packed extravaganza starring Val Kilmer as the caped crusader. Batman is up against two of Gotham City's most colorful criminals, the Riddler (a role tailor-made for funnyman Jim Carrey) and the diabolical Two-Face (Tommy Lee Jones), who join forces to conquer Gotham's population with a brain-draining device. Nicole Kidman plays the seductive psychologist who wants to know what makes Batman tick. Boasting a redesigned Batmobile and plenty of new Bat hardware, Batman Forever also introduces Robin the Boy Wonder (Chris O'Donnell) whose close alliance with Batman led more than a few critics to ponder the series' homoerotic subtext. No matter how you interpret it, Schumacher's take on the Batman legacy is simultaneously amusing, lavishly epic, and prone to chronic sensory overload. --Jeff Shannon

Batman, what happened? This film and its sequel are classic examples of when the studio gets involved. After the breakout success and positive reviews of the first film, which was dark and moody, the sequel was given mixed reviews but was still a success. Just not as big as the first. Burton did have a story treatment in mind for a third film, coincidentally also involving the Riddler, but Warners didn't want him to return. Instead, we get Joel Schumacher, who claimed he's wanted to do an adaptation ... Read More

This is where the series began to veer off course. After Batman Returns
failed to make the ridiculous amount Warner Bros. hoped it would (it actually did very well), the studio blamed Burton for making it too
dark and violent for the little kiddies. They wanted a lighter Batman that was more family friendy (doesn't that sound stupid?) Well, this is what you get: Cheesy dialogue, sets that are too bright anf flashy for OZ, and a Director who values eye candy (if you can even call it that) ... Read More

Many people hate Batman & Robin. I hate it.
Instead of Batman & Robin, GET THIS!
It is so much better, you don't have to worry about forgetting what the plot was like in Batman & Robin, two decent villains, the Riddler played the ridicously funny Jim Carrey, Two-Face played by Tommy Lee Jones.
Robin is introduced in the movie. He is a little annoying sometimes but still makes a good sidekick.
Two-Face: This Two-Face is a LOT less scarier than the one ... Read More

This is, without a doubt, the best Batman movie ever. Even The Dark Knight movie (which was great, too), was not quite as perfect as this movie. Val Kilmer was excellent, Chris O'Donell was amazing, Jim Carey was perfect, and Tommy Lee Jones was awesome.
For the defense of Val Kilmer: He was a lot like the Adam West character of Batman. Which isn't bad, honestly. Though the old show was pretty goofy, Adam West pulled it all together. Kilmer and Adam were both pretty straight, very mysterious, and ... Read More

I watched this picture last night on the Family Channel. BF is embarrassingly bad. Compared with the latest two releases (Hollywood's apology for the first four), Batman Begins and the Dark Knight, Forever doesn't hold a candle of any size. It's so over the top stupid and colorful that it resembles the campy Batman TV series of the late 60's. Jones' Two-Face/Dent has little substsnce; Carrey's Riddler is total Carrey, which may annoy viewers; Kilmer's Batman/Wayne is quiet and pretty much Kilmer playing ... Read More
