Kattiera Nana I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.
Brendon Jones It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
Allison Davies The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
Rcortada86 Clsssic. Timeless. Ahead of its time. Daring. Bold. Unique. Creative. Magnificent.
George Taylor I remember all the fans crying, Michael Keaton! WHAT! And what did we get? A great Batman movie, that really highlighted a very dark Gotham and an angst ridden Batman. Simply a great movie, for me the only weak point is Kim Basinger. She's really just there to be threatened and chased. She's the McGuffin of this film. The rest of it is great.
morganstephens512 This is actually probably the most well acted out of all of the Batman movies, even more so than Batman Begins. However, the way that the Joker was handled was not really all that stand out to me and while I do think Dark Knight is over rated, I will admit their Joker was better. I really also think that the action was pretty good in this movie, at least for the time. But I don't think it is the best today, and if for nothing else, I think that the chemistry between Batman and his girlfriend in this movie was actually probably the best between a Batman and their love interest in any of the adaptations to this day.
benjaminburt Tim Burton's Batman holds up surprisingly well after all this time. The action, sets, acting, score, and casting are all excellent. It was definitely a cultural phenomenon bringing an icon to life after the long-lived campy Adam West Batman series.If you're looking for modern action on par with things like the Bourne Ultimatum, the Dark Knight, or John Wick, you're not going to find it in Batman (1989), but you will find an enjoyable product of the time. Consider that Die Hard came out the year prior. Die Hard was awesome, but you have to admit that most fight choreography wasn't especially kinetic or intense. Batman is old, but, if you take it as it is, it's a really enjoyable super-hero romp that is both tense and dark and campy and fun.
