There are many good IMDb reviews for this, but I just don't get it. Awful!

Rating: 1/10 (29 August 2008)

Well, Danny Devito and Chris Walken are fun to watch but I can't think of another thing to say remotely complementary about this movie. Just dreadful. First off, there's tons of reviews on here praising this movie for being so dark. I don't get this at all. This is an updated version of the TV show in my opinion, all that awful "camp" is back. I've also noticed that most of the good reviews are from admitted Tim Burton lovers, something I make no claim to be. "Batman & Robin" is constantly maligned for being the downfall of this franchise (before Chris Nolan got his hands on it, of course), but this movie is just as bad as that one. I don't know, Burton's first Batman along with the two Nolan episodes are wonderful, but the other three ("Returns," "Forever," and "Robin") are just a waste of time. Maybe a 13 year old boy will fall for this crap, but the only adult fans I can imagine enjoying this film are those who will buy anything Burton does simply because it's Burton.
