Batman Forever
Val Kilmer takes over as Batman and does a pretty good job. Batman Forever also introduces Chris O'Donnel as Robin. The villains are pretty cool (The Riddler and Two-Face) and the actors that play them do an admirable job.
Although a little too cartoony for me, I enjoyed this movie. The only problem I have with Batman Forever is that it gets old fast. Overall it's a decent Batman movie, but it's nothing spectacular.
Final Verdict:
3/5
Rent or Buy?: Batman Forever is a must buy, it gets old fast, but it's the kind of movie you can rewatch every month or so without getting bored.

Val Kilmer actually manages to pull off a pretty good Batman in this movie. I can't quite figure out though why they didn't keep Michael Keaton.
In this movie Batman meets up with Poison Ivy(Drew Barrymore) and The Riddler(Jim Carey).

"When I was a child..."I last saw this movie ten years ago. I had thought that it was one of the better ones of the BATMAN quintology. Now after watching it again - for the first time - I cannot believe that anyone would think Val Kilmer to be appropriately cast as the Batman. His portrayal of this complex character comes off as unbelievable and rigid. The only saving grace of this movie is of course, Jim Carey. He actually stole the show and made the movie enjoyable!

Best Batman MovieReview created: 03/05/08

This is the Best Batman Movie Ever! The cast of characters is amazing. No actor can play Batman like Val Kilmer, he is the best. Tommy Lee Jones, Nicole Kidman, and Jim Carey are fantastic in their roles. If you don't have this one in you collection, You Are Batty!!!

Really? Thats the way they went...2 of 2 people found this review helpful.
I liked this movie when I was younger just because it was a Batman film. I've owned it on VHS and original DVD release. Now I have the 2 disc edition as part of the Batman Film Anthology DVD set. I have seen it recently and its not nearly as good as I thought it was before. It is cheesy at times and the acting of Jim Carrey and Tommy Lee Jones doesn't really fit. But it is a Batman movie and if your'e a fan, you've probably seen it also and have similar feelings.

It's a good movie from a cartoon standpoint. It's got an all-star cast that can't be beat. If you love Batman, this is for you and you alone. Get it today for your collection. You won't regret it.

Good Intro For Young Batman Fans.... not dark, not grim and gritty, but fun.
Jim Carey is fine in his performance, Drew Barrymore is OK as Poison Ivy, and the movie does move with action, and a plot.
Good for a rental for the family, or to add to your Batman Film Library!

Val Kilmer Takes Over the Role of Batman in Batman ForeverReview created: 07/11/06

Movie turned corny and campy. Strange changes made.
Batman had been a popular comic book character for decades so it wasn t surprising when Tim Burton made Batman in 1989 and followed it with Batman Returns in 1992. The studio hadn t been completely happy with the direction Burton went in the second movie, so a new director, Joel Schumacher was hired. That was just the beginning of the changes made for Batman Forever, the third Batman movie. Harvey Dent, the former district attorney who became a criminal after acid was thrown on half of his face had a plan to kill Batman. Harvey started going by the name of Two-Face when he started his...

Riddle Me This, Batman: "When is the Comic Book Better than the Movie?"Review created: 07/25/01

...or he can just be tiring. BAD interpretation of Batman, Robin, and the villains
The answer: almost always. Maybe there's something about the medium of comic books that doesn't translate well to the big screen. How, then, do we explain the successes of the comic book movies that DO work? Like "Superman," the first two "Batman" movies, the more recent "X-Men"...all of them worked well for a few reasons: 1) They were well written by people who cared about the characters. 2) They were directed by skillful directors who had both a visual flair for the extraordinary world of superheroes and were determined to make us feel something for the characters, both heroes and villains..

The third Batman movie marks the first real break in continuity. There s a different director, different Batman, different design, and different style. Whereas the first two are dark with an eye towards realism, this one is more like a newsstand comic book with more vibrant colors and more explosive action. In some ways this works well, but I preferred the more realistic approach which is why the Burton/Keaton movies are my favorites of the 4. Sure, comic book stylings in a movie can be fun, but isn t the point of a live-action adaptation to portray the drawings in a more realistic way? I...

Batman Forever Riddled with Two-Faced ProblemsReview created: 05/27/06

Joel Schumacher on the bat franchise, nipples on the bat suit?
The era of the Tim Burton Batman ended after the first two movies. Burton s outlook on Batman brought a renewed interest in the character especially when he brought him back to his dark roots. But along the way Burton s world also included the twisted and the macabre, something that seemed out of place for the Dark Knight at times. Parents responded negatively to the films because it was too dark. I think Warner Bros. thought along the same lines after Batman Returns and, with Burton s departure, decided to approach the franchise differently. What they planned was to make the next film more...

"Your entrance was good, his was better. The difference...showmanship." Yep, it was this simple two-sentence structure that sent me on my voyage into viewing one of the worst superhero movies ever created. My brother and I have a tendency to toss movie lines at each other during appropriate situations, and this one flew from his mouth recently at work. For some reason, it triggered a nagging feeling in me that could not be quelled until I sucked it up and re-watched this movie. So I dug deep into my illustrious video collection to bring this one to you. I know what you are thinking. "John,...
