Batman: The Movie

Sure, there are ways to get rid of a bomb, but for some reason this one grows on you. If you were a fan of the 60s TV show or want to introduce this version of the caped crusader to a new generation this will be a great launch board. If anything you to an hour and a half of babysitting material that looks better then when it was originally released. KAPOW!

Today’s movies today’s toys have changed dramatically from when I was a kid . Friends from school nieborhood friends would play with push toys planes that didn’t fly trains that we hand pushed around the track growing up in late 60s with threat of war . We used imagination with toys and played out in our minds the different things happening that day with our toys sometimes crash and burn others saving people . All though I do enjoy modern toys it’s good to remember classics like Batman and robin good against evil . We always knew that good would win evil would always loose . As kids every boy wanted to be Batman robin Superman . My baby brother would put a red blanket and pretend to fly . Now That’s imagination . Sadly it’s lost in kids you show them a toy they ask what does it do . I was able to In still imagination in my two kids to dream anything is possible .

This movie, starring Adam West and Burt Ward as Batman and Robin, kept up with the 1960s campy version of the series it spun off from, and was just plain fun to watch. I purchased this movie for the purpose of reviewing it for Classic Cinema Online, as Im comparing live action Batman from the 1940s to the present, and am enjoying their many differences. This movie, as cheesy as it is, fits right in - no disappointments here! Of all the Batmans, this one makes for the best family entertainment, being suitable for children of all ages, and I highly recommend it because of how fun it is to watch. I ordered this new and it arrived on the day anticipated in excellent condition.

I remember my father taking me to see this in the theater when it first came out. Several decades worth of growing up has taken a measure of the gilding off the movie, but its still super-campy and if thats what youre looking for, then its good. Not the best use of my time but it fit the bill for an evening I wanted to be entertained without thinking. (Besides, theres Lee Meriwether in her Catwoman costume... somehow I didnt notice her quite as much the first time I saw the movie!) It kinda all just peters out at the end, but there are still some laughs.

I just like the movie and it goes great in my vast collection.

Ive been a fan of the 60s Batman series since I was a kid but for some reason Ive only seen the movie once or twice before now. Now as an adult I can appreciate it in all its tongue-in-cheek glory. How can any movie not be a classic that has such great lines as Some days you just cant get rid of a bomb?

This version of Batman made in the mid-1960 was corny and campy, with bad acting. But I love the costumes, and all the bat gadgets, and the super villains who went toe to toe with Batman and Robin. The super villains are great campy characters, and good entertainment for some mindless fun. And Robin played by Burt Ward is so gosh darn golly good; he is the biggest cornball you will ever meet. It is hilarious. And of course Adam West who plays Batman takes himself way too seriously. Amazon Instant Video does not sell or rent the TV show version of this incarnation of Batman, but maybe they should. After all nostalgia sells well.........................

It was exactly what I wanted and as looking for.

I am a big Batman Fan, and when I saw this on dvd , I had to have it. Even though many think that the 1960s Batman was campy & corny, it is still fun to watch, and you can polk some fun at the fact that the Caped crusaders always had the right item on their belts to escape all types of trouble. Im not sure if the blue ray makes a big difference in the quality, however I have no complaints. I actually give it 4and 1/2 stars.

My kids started watching the old Batman shows on television and really liked them. We decided to watch this movie and they think its great. Adults really see how hokey it is, but it is funny because the writers intend for you to realize it. Batman and Robin make off-handed comments that make fun of themselves and some of the comments are really funny. Children seem to like it for the action. And the best part is that the language is appropriate for them and the storylines and characters are not as dark as the newer movies so they dont get scared. This is a great family movie.....
