An imaginative, entertaining endeavor

Rating: Null/10 (9 June 1999)

I was entertained through out the film. Gotham city as a set or background was superb, the script was exceptional, and the acting was decent. The Penguin, played by Danny Devito was a well developed, and truly repulsive character. The Catwoman character was also fairly interesting. I think the strength of the movie is that it expands on the original comic book characters, while Catwoman could've been glossed over as a femme fatale, she was in fact developed as a repressed secretary who finds her duel identity as a cat very liberating. Devito effectively plays a freakish, repugnant misanthrope. The Action sequences and production was slick and slightly off beat. Burton was at his best. This film is a must see for fantasy fans and people who like gothic like films
