Batman Forever was a good film. Batman and Robin was not great but it was not the worst film ever.
Batman 89 though I must say was better than TDK and Begins. I remember once critic said he was unimpressed with Batman Begins
Nolans films maybe faithful to the comics but there still boring.
I think you'll find that Batman and Robin IS one of the worst films ever concieved, and everyone is a critic anyway. Batman 89 feels empty and dated in this day and age, though i grew up watching it.
jamesy, here's what i think of the batman series
batman 89 is empty and dated, as lexington said. also, it is not very faithful to the comics, and it is boring at times. keaton is a horrible bruce wayne. he is supposed to be a devilishly attractive billionaire, but he is extremely socially awkward and annoying. his batman isn't that good either. he isn't that physically fit, he gets his ass kicked by the african american goon near the end. also, he breaks his #1 rule by killing 3 times. 1. ace chemical factory massacre. 2. african american goon. 3. the joker jack nicholson as the joker is ok. he really isn't that funny or scary, just silly and creepy. plus his sudden interest in vicki vale is stupid. vicki vale herself isn't great. she is just a typical love interest/damsel-in-distress. also, her screams are annoying. michael gouth as alfred was actually pretty good, but nowhere near as good as michael caine. billy dee williams as harvey dent had very little screen time. also the commisioner gordon was the worst part of this movie. C+
batman returns is mediocre. it is weird, disturbing, and even more boring than its predecessor. tim burton has a need to make every batman villain a psychopath. catwoman was weird, and annoying. the penguin was also weird. with the villains, they felt like gimmicks. catwoman was literally acting like a cat, penguin was acting like a penguin. it just felt stupid. also lines like "eat floor, high fiber" were annoying. christopher walken was ok. it had batman as a serial killer. C-
batman forever is bad, but not as much as returns. val kilmer is wooden beyond belief. chris o'donnell is whiney and annoying. nicole kidman is a slut. tommy lee jones and jim carrey are just stupid. the dialouge is horrendous. it is goofy, silly, and campy. but at times, it is entertaining. C
batman & robin is s**t. F
batman begins is great. we finally have batman as a badass, and wayne who is a spoiled brat. christian bale is pretty damn good. michael caine was an excellent alfred. we finally have him as a fathr figure to wayne. morgan freeman was also great. gary oldman literally WAS commisioner gordon. liam neeson was great as ra's al ghul. i wish that they gotten someone french to play ducard. cillian murphy was also good as scarecrow. the only really bad thing was katie holmes. it is entertaining, dark, and has great acting. B+
the dark knight is even better. with phenominal acting from ledger, suspenceful scenes, great action, and a ton of plot twists, it pleases more people than batman forever. A-
