Batman: The Movie

A classic that does not take itself too seriously, is it campy? Trust me this puts camp into the word campy. However it is what it is and it is a lot of fun to watch with the family. Your kids will love it like we did back in the day and that is what this was geared for, the kids, not us aging adults that want everything to line up perfectly and couldnt make a movie even like this one if we tried, LOL. Leave your preconceptions at the door and just have fun watching these actors play these characters, it is priceless fun. Happy movie watching Folks.

I am a big fan of the 1960s Batman series. I finally found this movie. I loved seeing the major baddies ( Joker, Penguin, Riddler, and Catwoman) Adam West is the best Batman.

Wow, such memories were elicited. I just love Adam West and Burt Ward authenticity for these roles and then to get the special treat of have Ceasar Romero, Burgess Meridith, and Frank Gorshin. I would have loved to see Julie Newmar instead of Lee Meriweather. I would have liked to see Eartha Kitt as Cat Women because I think she was Puuuurrrrrrrrrfect in the role. It made me want more. I forgot about the famous Bruce Lee as Kato in the series. I laughed so hard right from the start with the get the Bat ladder then it is dropped down from the Bat helicopter and actually says Bat Ladder at the end of ladder and shark attack with the rubber shark attached to Batmans leg on the Bat Ladder while Robin gets the Bat Shark repellent. Man this was a fun movie to watch, it will definitely be one that I pull out from now on when I need a laugh. This is how Batman was meant to be not dark and scary with a lot of violent shooting and blowing things up.

Brought back memories. My husband enjoyed it as well.

Movie had a few scratches Skips a little

As a child I would watch Batman with Adam West and I could not wait to get home to sit in front of the TV to see it. Just the sounds and even the sounds of the words they put up were even more aluring.POW, BANG! Ahh,the memories,I have a grandson who now, loves the Batman that is for this generation and I must say, Batman has come along way but is still here.One of the best Batmans I know is in this movie,you go Batman, your reign is not over. Watch this movie and the memories of your childhood will come flowing back in no time!

Anything Batman from 1966 is “the bomb”!!! We love Adam West and all he gave for the original Batman!!! Amazing! Perfect! So entertaining!!! <3

Maybe Ive been spoiled by the outstanding visual quality of the Blu-ray release of the television series, but to my eyes, the DVD version of this movie had better color saturation and the Blu-ray only very, very slightly improves on the overall picture sharpness and quality. Also, while the new bonus features are fun and are a nice addition, I do wonder why the From The Files Of Adam West photo gallery included on the 2001 DVD release was left off of the Blu-ray version. Surely there was enough room on the disc for its inclusion? While this isnt the only Blu-ray release of a movie that has dropped bonus features found on their older DVD versions, when everything else from the DVD has been ported over its a mystery why this one thing wasnt. Its kind of annoying to have to hold on to your old DVD for just one gallery of photos.

My 3 yr old son loves this movie. He says he wants to watch the real Batman and wont tolerate the cartoons, lol. They just recently removed it from Netflix, so I purchased it for him here. Some of the dialogue makes your eyes roll waaay back, but it was meant to be based on the comics and the humor at the time doesnt pass to well now, but its still watchable. I didnt have the heart to tell him that Adam West isnt around anymore, Im just gonna let him idolize him for now. Great movie, great guy.

No one can beat Adam West or Burt Ward for their ability to hold their tongues firmly in cheek. These guys are fabulous! This kind of sarcasm is really a lost art, and the scene where some days its just impossible to get rid of a bomb! is just about the funniest thing I have ever seen! Watch Adam West as he is frantically running around holding a cartoon bomb over his head-his physical comedy is amazing. I am sorry he never received the recognition he deserved, or another series in which he could shine.
