This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

Movie Review: "Batman Forever" (1995)A succession to Tim Burton's two-times interpretation of legendary comicbook-superhero "Batman", created by Bob Kane (1915-1998), comes at a hard stack of a 100 Million Production Value, when director Joel Schumacher needs to utilize all his routine and color forcing companionship with cinematogrpher Stephen Goldblatt, who saves the picture to be a failure, when "Hollywood" all-stars as Nicole Kidman as Deluxe support, Tommy-Lee Jones as over-made-up Two-Face, Jim Carrey as timeless show-stealing character of "The Riddler" to Val Kilmer as solid, but not spectacular "Bruce Wayne" deliver a surprisingly visceral comic-action event-movie, which annoys and fascinates at the same time, when out-of-shadow actor Chris O'Donnell as "Dick Grayson aka Robin" brings balance to a 115-Minute-Cut; keeping it even with unforgiven continuity "loopholes" of life-and-death situation at times of showdown after helicopter-, batmobile- and batboat-actions in atmospheric ambience throughout towards extraordinary less-to-no digital interference live-action 2nd unit photography, when unforntunately the gothic-to-morbid suspense of the Tim Burton directed, Michael Keaton starred precessors can not be reached to full satisfactions.Nevertheless due to its boldness of image system splendors and ultra-stark opening sequence "Batman Forever" stays relevant for revisits concerning any past, present or future generation of cinematic spectactors presented exclusively as proudly by Warner Bros. Pictures.Copyright 2018 Cinemajesty Entertainments LLC

After the mixed reception of batman returns the studio decided to get rid of Tim Burton and bring on board Joel Schumacher. The results however are anything less than stellar. The worst aspect is the script as the characters are only barley developed with the love story between Bruce Wayne and chase meridian coming across as a couple of teenagers flirting at a party. The motivation of two face is also very weak as we do not really understand why he wants to kill batman and he is given no other goal making him seem more of an excuse for a villain until Jim carrey shows up. The Riddler is slightly better as he is at least given a slightly interesting. His obsession with Bruce Wayne almost makes him seem like a gay rapist. This potentially could be interesting but unfortunately it is only given a few minutes of screen time before he becomes essentially ace Ventura in green spandex. The acting is also poor Val Kilmer Chris O'Donnell and Nicole Kidman all look board whilst Jim Carrey and Tommy Lee Jones both embrace themselves with ridiculously over the top performances. The direction is also poor with an overuse of neon and Dutch angles making the film feel like a disco. The accompanying music and sound effects coupled with the visuals creates an obnoxious style that even Michael bay would object to. The CGI also has aged poorly and as a result makes a the film feel almost fake. However the film is awful in an enjoyable way with the Jim Carrey scenes in particular being so ridiculous that they will likely get a laugh out of the viewers. Overall the film is laughably bad and it is weird to think that a major studio released the film as given the seriousness of modern batman movies it is a wonder why anyone ever see this film as being a legitimate batman film.

In 1995, I went to my local cinema with my dad and brothers to see this particular Batman movie and quite liking it. All these years later, "Batman Forever" is pretty good. The action scenes are capably handled, Tommy Lee Jones is an excellent villain as Harvey "Two-Face" Dent and Michael Gough and Pat Hingle reprise their respective roles. Val Kilmer is absolutely wooden as both Bruce Wayne and Batman (no doubt he was too busy thinking about his paycheck). He displays no depth and little emotion. He is very much a star from yesteryear. Nicole Kidman is the same - bland and irritating. Jim Carrey is OK as the Riddler but my word, he takes it a bit far at times! Chris O' Donnell is better than I thought as Robin. The photography and style are both complete opposites to Tim Burton's two films. In "Batman Forever," everything is much more bright and colourful. The pace is pretty good. Watch this for some undemanding fun.

After Batman Returns, Warner decided that the Batman movies had to be child-friendly. That was ultimately a stupid move, because Michael Keaton and Tim Burton liked it because of two Batman movies. Val Kilmer, I find, is a lesser Batman than Keaton. He shows emotion. I also find The Riddler played by Jim Carrey The Joker 2.0.Pros of the movie: -Gotham City -Michael Gough as Alfred -Val Kilmer as Batman -Chris O Donnel as RobinNegatives of the movie: -Joel Schumacher as Director -Tommy Lee Jones as Two-Face -Unrealistic images -Batmobil -Little tensionI give Batman Forever a 5.
