So without further ado, lets get down to it.

Batman & Robin
Batman & Robinis a bad movie.

And you know what?
He kind of pulls it off in a couple of scenes.
And then theresArnold Schwarzenegger, who was famously paid a whopping $25 million for his work as Mr.

Freeze, and who received top billing on all marketing materials.
So scenes in which polar-bear-shoe-clad Mr. Can a campyBatmanmovie work in this modern era?

And really, Batman doesn’t have all that much to do in the film.
He’s just a dude with some tools, which isn’t a great match for the monstrous Steppenwolf.
As a film, the theatrical cut ofJustice Leagueis really bad.

They say they do, and they act like they do, but it all lacks conviction.
Justice Leagueis not without a few bright spots, however.
It’s almost impressively forgettable, and so disappointing.

And in contrast to the far superiorZack Snyder’s Justice League, it’s even more frustrating.
11.)
Batman Foreverisnt a terrible movie, but its not a terribly good one either.

Coming off the vitality of Keaton inBatman Returns, Kilmer is downright boring as Bruce Wayne/Batman.
Full confession: I was kind of obsessed withBatman Foreveras a kid, and I imagine I wasnt alone.
Its not a very good movieBatmanor otherwisebut rewatching as an adult, it has its (few) moments.

The Dark Knight Rises
For the first hour or so,The Dark Knight Risesis pretty good.
But as I said, theres still stuff to like about the film.
Its handsomely crafted, with cinematographerWally Pfisterand Nolan pushing IMAX cameras to their limits.

Ultimately, though, the film is a disappointment.
WhereasHeath Ledgers Joker is menacing from the get-go,Tom Hardys Bane is a conundrum.
Coming off of something so great asThe Dark Knight, we were bound to be disappointed with whatever followed.

But what makesThe Dark Knight Risesso frustrating is that itsalmostreally interesting.

Directed byEric RadomskiandBruce Timm,Mask of the Phantasmis pretty darn terrific.
5.)
The LEGO Batman Movie
The LEGO BatmanMovieis certainly the funniestBatmanmovie ever made.
and crazy (Condiment Man!).
Batman is also kind of a dick, whichThe LEGO Batman Movieunderstands.
That’s ambitious and ballsy for an animated movie aimed at kids.
