Editorial Review: The first Batman sequel takes a wicked turn with the villainous exploits of the freakish and mean-spirited Penguin (Danny DeVito), whose criminal collaboration with evil tycoon Max Shreck (Christopher Walken) threatens to drain Gotham City of its energy supply. As if that weren't enough, Batman (Michael Keaton) has his hands full with the vengeful Catwoman (Michelle Pfeiffer), who turns out to be a lot more dangerous than a kitten with a whip. As with the first Batman feature, director Tim Burton brings his distinct visual style to the frantic action, but this time there's a darker malevolence lurking beneath all that extraordinary production design. --Jeff Shannon
The legendary hero returns to do battle against the mysterious Cat Woman and the diabolical Penguin -- who, with the help of his evil band of vandals, has a plan to destroy Gotham City as well as Batman.

The Good Things
*Loads of great action and a few very nifty special effects.
*Cinematography is as good as the previous film, if not better. It's definately darker and more dramatic.
*Production quality is still great, and introduces a number of great new gadgets, vehicles, costumes, and settings to the saga.
*Storyline, although more complex, is great. Expect good amounts of drama, action, a bit of romance, and a bit of comedy.
*Characters are great. The genesis ... Read More
Rating: - A Cat, A Bat, And A Penguin
After the 1989 "Batman" film brought the iconic superhero back to being a household name, "Batman Returns" followed it with another quality installment in the Batman franchise.
With Bruce Wayne's backstory already dealt with, this film focuses on his interaction with the two main villians, Catwoman and Penguin. The style and the feel of the film (very gothic) are in line with the original film, unlike the splashy future Joel Schumacher installments or the gritty, realist Christopher ... Read More
Rating: - OK
this film was ok nothing like the first batman movie good action and plot but it seemed to fall short in my book so it only gets three stars but much better than batman forever witch is the crapiest of them all.
Rating: - Michelle steals the show!!
This film is a great sequel and goes hand in hand with the first Batman as director Tim Burton and Michael Keaton return for another action-packed adventure in the traditional Tim Burton form. The real scene stealer here though is Michelle Pfeiffer as Selina Kyle/Catwoman who snatched up the role after Annette Benning became pregnant and brought so much bite to her role as the mousy secretary turned vengeful Catwoman out for blood against corrupt businessman Max Shreck (Christopher Walken). This premise ... Read More
Rating: - Catwoman, The Penguin
okay, you all have to admit that casting Danny Devito as the penguin & Michelle Pifer as catwoman, and Michael Keaton returns as Batman was the right movie on Burton's part. Who else can play The Penguin. com on he looks just like the comic and tv show penguin that you think the penguin actually exsist. aand pifer as catwoman was just the right move. Why not start off the sequal with Batman's other two most notorious villians and batman's most dangerous female villian. catwoman. michelle pifer's version ... Read More
