As Robin might have said of this semi-boondoggle: "Holy overkill!"

Is it interesting? Fitfully. Is it fun? Not much, Gotham City fans, not much.

Batman is a stunning achievement, especially through the incredible and unique visualization of director Tim Burton.

It is, unfortunately, awfully difficult to revisit Tim Burton's Batman with an impartial eye in the wake of Christopher Nolan's genre-defining Dark Knight trilogy...

The storytelling has weaknesses, but the characters are fascinating.

Nicholson's Joker is a villain worthy of a real superhero and Keaton's Batman gets to perform some cinematic superheroics of the first order.

Director Tim Burton effectively echoes the visual style of the original Bob Kane comics while conjuring up a nightmarish world of his own.

Highly recommended even for fans who think Batman begins and ends with Nolan's trilogy.

The idea of doing a dark, neurotic, highly stylized and highly claustrophobic superproduction is an audacious and appealing one, but director Tim Burton has only made it halfway there.

[Nicholson] has never been more commanding. Not only because he does an outstanding job, but also because so much of the movie's creative energy is devoted to making the Joker one of the most startling movie characters in recent memory.

Nicholson isn't only offering a brilliant bit of self-parody here, he's doing it in service to the character

It's an unforgivably flat ending for a movie of such astonishing contours. But its first two-thirds -- which should be called The Joker's Big Misadventure -- is probably the best film of the year.
