Batman Forever

1/4 stars

God, this movie is terrible. Though it has the benefit of a few good actors (Kilmer, Jones) to balance out the not so good (Nicole Kidman consistently fails to impress me, and in 1995 Jim Carrey simply wasn't an actor yet) and a few redeeming moments, the overall product is an insultingly stupid bastardization of everything Batman is supposed to be. Instead of gritty, moody, psychologically complex crime drama, we get this garish carnival of over the top design, direction and personalities.
