The Godfather (1972) - Quotes [speaking to himself, practicing his speech] Luca Brasi : Don Corleone, I am honored and grateful that you have invited me to your home on the wedding day of your daughter. And may their first child be a masculine child. Bat Battle: Who's The Best Movie Batman? Michael Keaton. Christian Bale. Val Kilmer. George Clooney. Even, yes, Adam West (he did a Batman film during the TV show's run). All of them have donned the bat-ears, the billowy cape, and the pointy gloves for one movie or another, to varying levels of success.
What Would Whedon's Batman Movie Have Been? - Movies News at IGN Joss Whedon may have signed his soul over to Marvel, but the director recently recalled his own idea for a Batman movie before the franchise was eventually given to Christopher Nolan. Not unlike Batman Begins, Wedon's film would have focused heavily on the origins of the Caped Crusader. However, Whedon noted that he was more interested in following the early years of Bruce Wayne as "a morbid, death-obsessed kid." Explained Whedon, "He's like this tiny 12-year-old who's about to get the s#! Batman Begins All Critics (265) | Top Critics (51) | Fresh (224) | Rotten (41) | DVD (57) Nolan takes an admirable stab at developing a character-driven drama, only to give in to generic action-movie conventions with a blinding, deafening, explosion-laden finale that could have capped off any number of interchangeable Jerry Bruckheimer flicks. Batman Begins summons up moments of great eloquence and power.
The Dark Knight All Critics (288) | Top Critics (51) | Fresh (270) | Rotten (18) | DVD (28) An exceptionally smart, brooding picture with some terrific performances. The Dark Knight is a film that's fantastic on the action front, seeds its acrobatics in its own reality, and always feels relevant even when its ideas are drowned out by clatter. Batman All Critics (67) | Top Critics (12) | Fresh (47) | Rotten (19) | DVD (20) It's an unforgivably flat ending for a movie of such astonishing contours. But its first two-thirds -- which should be called The Joker's Big Misadventure -- is probably the best film of the year. The storytelling has weaknesses, but the characters are fascinating. The idea of doing a dark, neurotic, highly stylized and highly claustrophobic superproduction is an audacious and appealing one, but director Tim Burton has only made it halfway there.
Batman Returns All Critics (67) | Top Critics (16) | Fresh (54) | Rotten (13) | DVD (24) As Beetlejuice and Edward Scissorhands reminded us, Burton always has been more absorbed by what his audience sees than by what his movies say. Batman Returns is the rarest of Hollywood beasts -- a sequel that's better than the original April 10, 2013 Burton, once an animator at Disney, understands that to go deeper, you must fly higher, to liberation from plot into poetry. Batman Forever All Critics (58) | Top Critics (15) | Fresh (24) | Rotten (34) | DVD (18) By now, Jim Carrey is doing sarcastic takes on his own sarcasm, and there's something funny and a little scary in that. Joel Schumacher submits to the Wagnerian bombast with an overly busy surface, and the script by Lee and Janet Scott Batchler and Akiva Goldsman basically runs through the formula as if it's a checklist. As for Kilmer, he gamely steps into the dual Batman/Wayne role but can't get much traction, finding, as Michael Keaton had, that beyond a stern jaw there's not much to be done with it, since the suit does most of the work. The second sequel to Tim Burton's 1989 blockbuster makes its predecessors appear models of subtlety and coherence. The film recovers from that initial confusion to get stronger as it goes along, and to shape up as a free-form playground for its various masquerading stars.
Batman & Robin All Critics (66) | Top Critics (16) | Fresh (8) | Rotten (58) | DVD (12) By now, the dispatching of various comic-book meanies is the least satisfying part of the deal, no matter how many disco scenes or gizmos are thrown onto the screen. Loud, uninspired, and interminable. The villains, Arnold Schwarzenegger and especially Uma Thurman in this instance, remain the highlights here, as the rest of the gargantuan production lacks the dash and excitement that would have given the franchise a boost in its eighth year. The fourth Bat-flick finds this juvenile franchise running on empty.
Batman: The Movie All Critics (29) | Top Critics (2) | Fresh (23) | Rotten (6) | DVD (25) Batman is packed with action, clever sight gags, interesting complications and goes all out on bat with batmania: batplane, batboat, batcycle, etc. etc. I'd choose Adam West's Batmobile over Michael Keaton's any day. For Bat enthusiasts, this is a gold mine, for everyone else?
