Review of Batman Returns (1992) by Miu M — 02 Aug 2012

I couldn't get this film to four stars, something about this movie bugs me. Maybe its because The Penguin wasn't really an interesting bad guy. I mean how the hell did he learn to speak english if he lived in the sewers for 33 years and his only company was real penguins? I couldn't take this film that seriously like the first Batman.

The first Batman is fucking awesome, one of the best out there, but this one just doesn't do much for me. If they had more back story on Penguin it would have been better. If any one remembers the first Batman, you should remember how the movie was mainly all about The Joker.

This film should have been like that. I like how there wasn't much Batman in the first one, it made him feel more mysterious, you never know when he will come. But for this movie you always know when and exactly where he is going to show up.

Michelle Pfeiffer is incredibly sexy in this movie. I also didn't like how Batman wasn't that threatening like he was in the first. At the beginning of the first he picks up the bad guy and hangs him off the building, holding him with his hands, and says this in his normal voice, "Now I want you to do me a favor.

. I want you to tell all your friends about me." Now that is fucking awesome. Also, the resurrection of Selina Kyle into Cat-Woman was really stupid. Overall, it is a good batman-comic book movie, but it is definitely not as good as the first.

Batman is not as badass, the villain is not more mysterious and interesting, and the supporting actors really are not good in this movie.
