I'm sorry brehs, the movie was a little bit wack. It was carried by the costume design and you know it.

Movie was forgettable. Nothing really remarkable about it. The story beats felt weak, character motivations were all over the place, etc. Along with other stupid stuff (joke killing Batman's parents... Vicki Vale...)

Prince's soundtrack didn't add anything to the movie. I left it thinking "what was the point of this?"

Overall, Tim Burtons designs and scene composition are the only things about it that actually stick out for being somewhat good. Otherwise, it was ass.

I like Returns better but 89 was pretty solid :ehh:

Returns was basically Tim Burton's true vision of a Batman movie. The first one was dope but it was basically a Prince album with Batman as the promo.

It is a dated movie. I was never the biggest fan of that version tbh.
