Batman Forever

I was 50/50 with this. The plot is fairly non existent and the movie feels and looks like a theatre show. Kilmer is ok as Batman without really doing a lot. Carrey and Jones as the villains are unbelievably OTT. It’s saving grace is the non stop action scenes. Guilty pleasure

After the gothic parent-nightmare that was Tim Burton’s Batman Returns, they wanted a lighter, more kid friendly version of Batman. With that in mind, I think this movie does that well. It’s fun and campy while also staying cool and Batmany.

Yeah, I really, really don’t like this.

It’s just entirely obnoxious. I understand their want to “course-correct” after Batman Returns being too dark to sell their toys or whatever, but man it’s just load of rubbish, can’t fathom what Joel Schumacher was going for.

Val Kilmer is given virtually nothing to work with and comes off really negatively as a result. Tommy Lee Jones and Jim Carrey are just fucking awful. Jones obviously wants to be Jack Nicholson’s Joker - total misfire. I’ve never understood the appeal of Jim Carrey’s comedy - I hate it, he does the same thing for every role, I think he’s far better as a dramatic actor.

Liked even less than I remembered, God knows what I’ll think of Batman & Robin now, when I muster up the courage…
