Review of Batman (1989) by Sharad Y — 19 Jun 2015
Nostalgia.. the only reason this movie gets a good rating. Nicholson plays a character he's played before and that's okay because it works for the joker. Keatons Batman is usable yet not very intimidating. his Bruce wayne is quirky and funny but is that really Bruce wayne? burton wrote a Tim Burton movie with batman in it is that a good thing? I say maybe. it popularized the super hero movie and brought batman into the limelight which we can be very grateful for. but overall the changes to canon of both the joker and bats himself is not quite good enough for me to call it a good film and so it really pales in comparison to the Nolan universe. but I will say the batman theme is awesome.
B- for me.
