The hit 1966 Batman live-action television show starring Adam West and Burt Ward as the Dynamic Duo created a phenomenon known as “Batmania”. The mystery surrounding it defies all logic or any sensibilities, yet years later it is ...
Pros: Fun and entertaining version of Batman. Cons: Campy and very silly. Overacting. Bad dialogue.
Batman became popular after he first appeared in Detective Comics. After that, he ended up being in a television show and several movies, some better than others. In 1966, Batman: The Movie was released after the very successful first ...
Pros: Lee Meriwether, Costumes, "Ee-yow!" Cons: Dialogue, Plot, Corniness out the wazoo
Last night (Of course, knowing how long it takes me to write a review, I’m sure it will have been longer by the time I actually post this. I’m referring to Wednesday, March 20, 2002.), AB Films ran another installment in its pilot program of Wednesday...
Pros: Captures the feel and style of the beloved 1960's TV series. Cons: Captures the feel and style of the corny and silly 1960's TV series
You just gotta love DVD! Without the introdution of this wonderful new home video format, movies like 1966's Batman: The Movie would be left to simply languish away on some dusty old VHS shelf. Maybe once or twice a year someone would pick the...
Pros: still a funny flick after all these years Cons: can be tedious at times
As a kid, I spent many a late afternoon before supper watching episodes of Batman. I am referring the the kitschy 60s series featuring Adam West and Burt Ward. This show was very different from the comic books which featured a ...
Pros: Imagine an episode of the 1960's Batman series stretched out to a 100 minute movie. Cons: Some people might find the movie a bit too long.
Once upon a time, Batman was a wacky, fun-loving guy. In the comic books and in the television series starring Adam West, Batman and Robin were a couple of squeaky clean types who were out to fight for liberty, justice and the American way, by golly!...
Pros: So stupid it's funny Cons: Too little funny scenes, bad acting, boring at parts, and has no character development.
I always wanted to see the old 1966 Batman. I was already a big fan of Batman and some of his newer movies, the ones done by Tim Burton where Michael Keaton was Batman, not the movies with George Clooney. When I saw this movie in the local video ...
Pros: The cast, the comedy and the fun. Cons: If you like the Dark Knight- avoid it.
I have to say- as silly and campy as the approach to Batman was on television- there was and remains, for me, a certain charm to it. This movie came on the heels and hiatus of the first season of the television show. It was penned by Lorenzo Semple ...
Pros: A sublime, surreal work of genius... Cons: that's been unfairly dismissed as camp for too long
The 1966 Batman feature sprays some Bat Critic Repellent in its opening credits sequence by dedicating what follows to those who know how to have a good time, but believe me, it's not out of embarrassed obligation that I recommend the film, one of the...
This, the first installment of the Batman films was probably the best. The reasons for this was; 1. The first real actor Batman movie (after Adam West version of 1966), 2. Kim Basinger, 3. Jack Palance, 4. Billy Dee Williams, Michael Keaton, and (most...
Pros: Good family fun Cons: Not as good as the TV Show
Batman 1966 Movie - VHS
It seems every other reviewer (including the pro's) think this is the 1989 Keaton/Nicholson/Burton Blockbuster, as Aunt Harriet might say, "Oh Dear!"
At the height of the popularity of the 1966 Batman TV...
Three people purportedly reviewed this film, and not one of them noticed that the headers put out by the kind Epinions.com people referred to the Adam West/Burt Ward Batman film!
Yes, the kind folks who brought you the series also produced a...
Pros: Classic, hilarious dialogue, unique Cons: Loose plot twists and ends, Robin's pale, hairless legs
Okay, I'll start off by coming out and saying that this movie is not a masterpiece. The acting is subpar, as is the plot. The good thing? Most of this was intended. The Plot: I'd hate to spoil anything so here's a brief plot summary. Batman's ...
Pros: Hillarious film with lots of stupidity! Cons: Stupid looking "special" effects.
I saw this when I was about 8 or 9 years old but I already knew it was goofy and hysterical. This is a stupid movie, but it's not the "so-stupid-it-hurts-just-to-watch-it" type of stupid. It's the...
