This movie is just under appreciated. Now before you jump to conclusions and judge me insane or that I just have bad taste, let me defend myself. Even though most people 9/10 would rate this Batman movie the worst Batman movie, and one of the worst movies of all time, yo should look to the past before condemning it. I am a âfan boyâ when it comes to all things Batman, anyone who knows would tell you this, and yes I do believe this is the worst of all the Batman movies, but not for the reasons you think. First letâs get over the bat nipples, it was costume designed to make George Clooney look like something he is not. I firmly believe they wanted Batman to look buff and larger than life, instead of practical like the Christian Bale suite. The Batman movies are very much like the James Bond franchise. Same concept, different actors. So with that I look at this particular installment as the retro Batman. It was a lot like a very big budge movie version of the old Adam West Batman TV series, over the top and campy fun, it even had the trademark tilted camera shots!! George Clooney, even though a great actor, is no Bruce Wayne, if anything killed this movie, it was his performance, um and Alicia Silverstones performance. Clooney is just Clooney in this move he plays himself and not Bruce Wayne as with Alicia, if they would have at least put some thought into these roles it would have been oh so much better. The rest of the movie is actually quite good. I think the general public just wasnât ready for that regression in this franchise, we were used to the Tim Burton Esq. movies, but even he failed us, us being fan boys. Arnold was a good freeze but he would have made a better Bane, and bane could have been a whole lot better. I think people found it laughable the Arnold was supposed to be some genius scientist, come on in that body? Not too believable, but in all he did try to at least act, unlike Mr. Clooney. Bottom line, if youâre a fan of the old TV series, youâll love it, well at least like it.
