Redundant and unnecessary.

This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

Movie Review: "Batman Returns" (1992)Warner Bros. Pictures presents this highly theatrical conceived sequel to their smash hit of 1989 "Batman" directed by visionary 1920s-Dr.Caligari-homaging director Tim Burton. By many considered in parts too dark for the common target audience due to visceral death scenes of skyscraper fallings over cold-blooded revolver shots to starving concrete-dropping creatures of the night.The character of Bruce Wayne / Batman, performed by keeping face actor Michael Keaton, must encounter the childhood-traumatized Peguin with Danny DeVito in-top form, portraying with utmost of delight and heartbreaking emotional outbursts due to a parents-abandoned child within, when the character of Selena Kyle transforms into Catwoman in skin-tight black-gloss costume performing actress Michelle Pfeiffer sending whippings and razor-sharp scratchings out to a final deadly kiss, when the picture in moments of complete full frontal character confrontations exceed its precessor, especially in the showdown triangle stand-off, including actor Christopher Walken as righteousness seeking politician Max Shreck, of ultimate emotional convictions to feel what it means to be split in two lives of existence.Director Tim Burton creates another uniquely received atmosphere of high end staging theater captured on film, when he is able with Warner Bros. provided production budget to build sets of signature-defined splendor that even with flaws in continuity-fighting scenes always turns the corner under an ultra-dark-matter score by composer Danny Elfman into emotions of awe and entertainment satisfactions.© 2017 Felix Alexander Dausend (Cinemajesty Entertainments LLC)

Sequels are often unwatchable and almost never keep up with original or succeed to be great films independently from prequels. But Tim Burton obviously doesn't know how to fail. I had high expectations from movie that gathers Burton, Michael Keaton, Michelle Pfeiffer, Danny DeVito, Christopher Walken, Vincent Schiavelli... and movie absolutely justified them all. Classic that stands shoulder to shoulder with original.9/10

This film was good and it had a lot of action in but there were flaws in it.Most of the characters were gone from the previous film without any reason (Jim Gordan, Harvey Dent, and Viki Vale).The woman who played Selena Kyle was hot in this movie considering I wasn't born when this movie came out but a horrible miscast as Catwoman. The actor who played Penguin though was good.Like I said this movie was good but not Batman 1989 good.

In the first Tim Burton Batman movie, Jack Nicholson stole almost every scene he was in as The Joker, but the film was still very much about Batman.Three years later, and Batman returned, but on the strength of this sequel, perhaps it would have been better if he had remained hidden away in his bat cave.Nowhere near as much fun as his original, Tim Burton's follow up focuses less on the bat and more on the villains: the Penguin (Danny De Vito), who emerges from the sewers, ostensibly to discover who is parents were, but in reality, to wreak terror on the people of Gotham City, with a little help from unscrupulous industrialist Max Schreck (Christopher Walken). And Catwoman, psycho secretary Selina Kyle, who loses her marbles and turns nasty after being pushed out of a window by Schreck.Michael Keaton, as Batman, hardly gets a look in.As well as featuring not nearly enough of its hero, the film also suffers from an air of unrelenting grotesqueness (Burton going overboard on the freaky stuff), a really drab aesthetic (the winter setting leading to lots of dreary grey and blue visuals), and a boring plot in which the Penguin runs for mayor. At over two hours long, I felt my eyelids drooping a lot.4/10, minus one point for Walken's crazy hair and the unconvincing mechanical penguins/men in penguin costumes, some of the Stan Winston Studio's worst work.
