rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author AliventiAsylum - When Tim Burton took on the Director’s job for the 1989 version of Batman, fans knew they were in for something much different than the campy, cartoonish television show. Burton had a reputation for seeing the dark side of things,...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author elflord7 - I grew up watching Batman on television and reading the comics in the 60's. I think if anyone else had produced the movie other than Tim Burton, I may have been disappointed, but he did, and I wasn't. Burton's take on things is twisted enough to...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author elvisdo - 1989 was the Year of the Bat. After missing the boat with Superman's 50th anniversary in 1988, Warner Bros. and DC Comics made sure that wouldn't happen for Batman's 50th anniversary in 1989. So what was the biggest and best way to get...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author chelledun - Although Batman is a cultural phenomenon, I have never seen any of the films until last night. It’s not surprising I didn’t see the film when it first came out, seeing as I was only seven. However, it is somewhat amazing that I have dodged not...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author harley4u - The first Batman movie is not necesserily the best of the series, but if you're a fan of Batman (there must be a few million of you out there at least), you'll want and need it. Batman is a film of extremes - it goes from being wild and crazy, to...

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Chad9976 - From the premise alone, "Batman" should be one of the greatest adventure films of all time, but it is not. It tends to trade substance for style and its storytelling is choppy. Despite all these flaws, there is a sense of exciting adventure, even if it...

Fri, 18 Oct 2002 11:17:04 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author sevry - Starts off fine with somewhat derivative Elfman theme (trick of great art - conceal ones sources). The 'badge run' was a little odd, and also derivative of the Lugosi Dracula title sequence (or was that design, itself, taken from the Batman comics?)...
