Batman returns

Rated 15. This was the first 15 I ever watched. It was so dsapointing it hurt. Michael Keaton is a terrible batman, and though Michelle Pfeiffer gives it her all, Danny Devito stands out. To be honest with you, he is the only good thing in this terrible movie. Basicly, this movie is grim, overly dark and largely unthrilling.

Danny Devito is a good penquin who fills the role well. But a superhero movie nees more than just endless misery. This joyless dark atmosphere is only helped by no joy and the majority of the film being set at night. This movie lacks a heart and it lacks a soul. Where are those deep chracters and good plot with an exciting climatic battle. They are all absent. A very unexciting hero too. Batman was good when played by Val Kilmer, he was good when he was played by George Cloony and very good when played by Christian Bale. Michael Keaton just can't fill the shadowy figure with the excitment and mystery it needs to be a memorable hero. Newflash: Batman goes 2-D! (Here meaning a very boring character!)

Other superhero movies are exciting. Not this one. This foucuses on all the broody characters while leaving  little room for any excitment. This is in no way a bright movie. I don't know why it got 77% on rotten tomatoes. I think this movie is overrated just like Avatar. At least Avatar is better.

Overall this is a fantasticly dire movie and it is 2nd  in my top ten worst movies list. Destination: The cinematic sewers. 1 star out of 5. (I would give 0 stars if I could).
