Batman is up against two of Gotham City's most colorful criminals, the Riddler (a role tailor-made for funnyman Jim Carrey) and the diabolical Two-Face (Tommy Lee Jones), who join forces to conquer Gotham's population with a brain-draining device. Nicole Kidman plays the seductive psychologist who wants to know what makes Batman tick. Boasting a redesigned Batmobile and plenty of new Bat hardware, Batman Forever also introduces Robin the Boy Wonder (Chris O'Donnell) whose close alliance with Batman led more than a few critics to ponder the series' homoerotic subtext. No matter how you interpret it, Schumacher's take on the Batman legacy is simultaneously amusing, lavishly epic, and prone to chronic sensory overload. --Jeff Shannon Average Rating:
 Rating:  - The Riddler, Two Face, Robin and bat crap.Its bad, its green and the bright colors are out of control, Its Batman Forever. The movie has a new director whos name is Joel Schumacher. Whenever I think of this movie I think of greeeeeeen!! The new Batman is Val Kilmer, hes not the best choice but he gets the job done. Which is probably what Joel Schumacher was thinking while making this candy scented bat crap. The movie was passible but that dosent mean much. Jim Carrey was good as The Riddler and was my favorite villian out of Batman 3 and ... Read More Rating:  - Pretty goodI like this Batman movie a lot of people hate it but I like it a lot and this was a big hit in 1995 got a few award nominations. Val Kilmer did a good job Jim Carey was just Jim Carey. Tommy Lee Jones was good as Two Face not great loved Bruce Wayne's love interest Chase Maridan played by Nicole Kidman. Good story but they should've stopped here or gave it a few years had Tim Burton do the directing cause Tim Burton being the producer of the film saved it from being a Joel Schumacher camp fest like ... Read More Rating: - Mediocre at Best - the Beginning of the EndThis movie began the descent part of the Batman arc or dive. Even though Bob Kane himself said that he always pictured Bruce Wayne as portrayed by Val Kilmer, the film as a whole did not carry a whole lot of appeal. Chris O'Donnell, while doing a fine job as Robin, reminded me more of Jason Todd than Dick Grayson. I enjoyed Gotham much more as Tim Burton's dark vision rather than Joel Schumacher's Neon Funland. The movie carries on the mythology with the introduction of ... Read More Rating: - The Dark Knight Is Becoming a Little Less Dark...After two successful installments in the Batman franchise, the third film, "Batman Forever", signaled a time of change for the series, from cast and crew, to the overall tone of the movies, even to costume choices. The biggest casting change was that of Michael Keaton stepping aside, supposedly over money and age related disputes. Filling in for Michael this time around was actor Val Kilmer ("The Saint"), other new additions to the franchise were Chris O'Donnell ("Vertical Limit"), Nicole Kidman ("The ... Read More Rating:  - Riddle Me This, Riddle Me That, How come the bad guys made that filmBatman Forever is pretty good only because of the villians. Jim carrey basically made that show, with a little help from Tommy Lee Jones. This movie was meant for jim carrey. because he could go nuts. just like the character. he was perfect for the part. & tommy lee jones did a pretty good job with Two-Face. Val Kilmer was okay as batman & Chris o'Donnell as robin, i think they rushed that. he was okay but i think they could of found someone better. but all in all the movie was enjoyable. if you like ...
