9.The Batman
When a sadistic serial killer begins murdering key political figures in Gotham, the Batman is forced to investigate the city’s hidden corruption and question his family’s involvement. Firstly I really wanted to like this film. I do like the idea of the teenage batman aspect and that is refreshing, the main lead is slightly bland and it is overlong; it hasn’t got that psychological elements which you needed in this film, it got some potential with the story itself and the idea behind this film, with these flaws this is a major letdown for people.
8.The Lego Batman Movie
Batman works together with his ward, Robin, and the police commissioner’s daughter, Barbara, to foil Joker’s plans of taking over Gotham City. I rent this film out from my public library and I thought it was okay. Despite that I do admire this film that tries to be something different, I just feels with this film it is too hyperactive; it isn’t laugh out loud funny, it doesn’t gel or flow together as much, it might not be a perfect film but it still good.
7.Batman & Robin
Batman and Robin try to keep their relationship together even as they must stop Mr Freeze and Poison Ivy from freezing Gotham City. Entertaining film which is certainly eye catching from start to finish. It brims with comic one liners as it can be funny in places, it might not gel or flow together as much, at least it didn’t take itself too seriously, this is a superb film.
6.Batman Forever
Batman must stop Two – Face, who seeks revenge from him after a courtroom accident leaves him disfigured on one side, and The Riddler, who wants to drain information from all the brains in Gotham. Gorgeous looking film which certainly draw you in. the chemistry between the two villains is spot on, this another film which doesn’t gel or flow together as much, that is the only thing; this is certainly eye catching, this is a well-made film.
5.The Dark Knight Rises
Bane, an imposing terrorist, attacks Gotham City and disrupts its eight-year long period of peace. This forces Bruce Wayne to come out of hiding and don the cape and cowl of Batman again. Having watched this film I thought it was pretty good. It feels epic and a thrill ride type of film, this is overlong and it does have a bit of a pacing problem, despite that it has got the emotional aspect, it has got an all stars cast as they are believable.
4.Batman Begins
After witnessing the murder of his beloved parents, young billionaire Bruce Wayne searches the world for a way to fight injustice and corruption. A brilliant first enter from Christopher Nolan trilogies. It got that psychological element which is important, you will care about with these characters, some of the villains not as memorable; it’s only Cillian Murphy character that is perfectly sinister, overall it will draw you in from the start.
3.Batman
The Dark Knight of Gotham City begins his war on crime with his first major enemy being Jack Napier, a criminal who becomes the clownishly homicidal Joker. Being the first Tim Burton version this is superior. Jack Nicholson is excellent as the Joker as the acting is totally convincing, once you watched this film you will always remember this, it might be dated but it still works well, overall this film is certainly memorable.
2.Batman Returns
The evil Penguin wants to take control of Gotham City and uses Max Shreck to reach his goal. Meanwhile, Batman does everything in his power to stop the Penguin while Catwoman has an agenda of her own. Could be one of the best Batman sequels from Tim Burton era. Danny DeVito is brilliant as the Penguin as the acting in general is brilliant, it might be too dark for some people but this is perfectly memorable, it will creep you under your skin, you will always remember this film.
1.The Dark Knight
When a menace known as the Joker wreaks havoc and chaos on the people of Gotham, Batman, James Gordon and Harvey Dent must work together to put an end to the madness. Do not miss the greatest superheroes film of all time. It is well casted especially Heath Ledger, it feels epic and a thrill ride type of film; the pacing is perfect as it does hold your interest, this is certainly memorable as it got twist and turn throughout this film; overall this is a well-made film with brilliant set pieces.
