Review of Batman Forever (1995) by Andy O — 25 Mar 2014

You'd think having the combined talents of Jim Carrey, Val Kilmer, Tommy Lee Jones and Nicole Kidman would pretty much guarantee a quality product, but alas this film fails spectacularly after the rather sublime Batman Returns.

A move toward the cheesy camp, err.... 'camp' was not a wise move imo, and for a Batman film there was a distinct lack of, well, Batman. Two Face was an irritating Joker knock off, and Carrey seemed to be playing the Mask all over again, except more ridiculous and less intelligently - ironic really, given the films plot.

Ah well at least there was plenty of Kidman cleavage and legs, so it's not all bad. Just mostly bad...
