Jim Carrey made me laugh but I was disappointed in the Batman. I found the tone of the movie an interesting choice and I thought it went on a little too long. I still was interested but I didn't have fun.

"Batman Forever" is a movie that offers popcorn action and decent fun from Jim Carrey; basically you have to see the film as a ADHD in order to love the style.

It's kind of depressing to see the dark tone disappear and have the series be this ridiculous. I like Val Kilmer, but he is so boring to watch. Jim Carrey is the highlight, but Tommy Lee Jones can be really irritating. The flashing lights and obnoxious sound effects doesn't save this boring movie...

Better than Batman & Robin, but still a mediocre film. It tries too hard to combine Tim Burton's characters with their campy earlier versions. The result is an unsatisfying movie that's more of a product than an actual piece of decent scripting.

Batman Forever [1995]
I loved this movie so much when I was a kid. Like, I was a DIEHARD fan for it. I idolized The Riddler, to the point that I kept drawing question marks on my bedroom wall with green crayons. I haven't watched the movie since then, and while growing up, I've heard so much **** about how crappy the Shumacher Batman films were, so my thoughts about this film have been negatively percepted since then. When I rewatched this, I have to say, it's not as bad as what people say **** about it. It's no Nolan film, but it's really not as bad as people say it is.

THE GOOD:
-Val Kilmer's the best-looking Batman. He fits everything that has to be about Bruce Wayne and Batman. Sure, he has a deadpan delivery, but Bruce Wayne is supposed to be deadpanned as well so can't blame him for the characterization.
-The production design is awesome.
-The score.
-The Charity Circus scene. Best part of the movie, hands down..
-Bruce Wayne's past is explored a lot more.
-Best-looking Batman costume.
THE BAD:
-The script is GODAWFUL. NOTHING MAKES SENSE. Batman strongly talks Robin to not kill Two-Face as a form of revenge, but Batman himself kills Two-Face without any sensible explanation. Bruce Wayne giving up on being Batman. Where the **** did that storyline come out from?
-The villains are more cartoons than actual villains.
-Jim Carrey. OH MY GOD, I can't believe I worshipped him in this when I was a kid. The first scene with him was unbearable to watch.
-Batnipples.
-What the **** did Robin do the entire movie, esp. when Batman was in peril? He showed up only to get Batman out of the sand. After that, he drove the Batboat and got held captive by the villains. What was the redeeming point of even having him in this besides being the catalyst of Bruce remembering his past?… Expand

Boring, loud and ridiculously acted, "Batman Forever" should be renamed to "Batman Never" in spite the efforts of the charismatic Jim Carrey and Tommy Lee Jones who brings soft comedy to save this movie from being a mess.

What saves this movie is Tommy Lee Jones and Jim Carrey as Two-Face and The Joker. Jim Carrey is especially in place, while Two-Face's portrayal may be too psychotic, it's not nearly as bad as the Penguin or Mr. Freeze were.

These days, while it's slightly more watchable, it still fails to excite as much as some people might have you believe. The story is weak, the Prince songs are horrible (the same can't be said for the Elfman score though) and Keaton's rendition as the Dark Knight leaves a lot to the imagination. What I did enjoy about Keaton was his brilliant portrayal of the disturbed Bruce Wayne (one of my favourite scenes was his attempt at letting the cat out of the bag in Vale's apartment). Nicholson is wildly entertaining and his over-the-top antics are worth, at least, a single viewing.… Expand

His character gets the most lines and screen time, with the Riddler essentially an extension of Carrey's comedy persona. His overbearing presence confines Two-Face (played by Tommy Lee Jones) into a secondary character, given no real personality of his own other than that of a glorified lackey.

Poor old Joel Schumacher - he'll be known for the rest of his life as "The man who killed Batman", though he earned that moniker in making Batman & Robin, not this installment. True, it's a very different take on the Dark Knight mythologyPoor old Joel Schumacher - he'll be known for the rest of his life as "The man who killed Batman", though he earned that moniker in making Batman & Robin, not this installment. True, it's a very different take on the Dark Knight mythology from Tim Burton's previous brooding, Gothic adaptations - Schumacher adds a liberal dose of self-aware humour and in-jokes, and the whole film has a certain camp fun about it. It's almost like Batman and Batman Returns was the franchise in its moody teenage years, and all of a sudden it's decided to cheer up and have a little fun. Schumacher hasn't completely dumped Burton's ideas on the wayside though, and most likely due to Burton staying on as producer, the film continues to delve into Bruce Wayne's tragic past and complex psychology. These scenes could have been lifted directly out of either Batman or Batman Returns, and provide the film with a good emotional kick. Robin's origin story is also kept fairly dark and Burton-y, and the thematic parallels Schumacher and writer Akiva Goldsman draw between Dick Grayson and Bruce Wayne are dramatically effective. The casting for the film is a real mixed bag. Chris O'Donnell has the right rebellious attitude and confidence to play Robin, Nicole Kidman makes a feisty femme-fatale as sassy psychologist Chase Miridian, Michael Gough is reliable as always as Alfred, and Jim Carrey steals every scene he's in as a brilliantly batty Riddler. However, Val Kilmer is completely miscast as Batman, and even clever cinematography and editing can't hide the fact that he can't handle the stunts - he just looks fat and slow. The real turkey of the cast is, disappointingly, Tommy Lee Jones, who turns Harvey Two-Face, one of the most interesting and complex of Batman's rogues gallery into a simplistic, camp pantomime villain. We must also question some of the design changes in the film (nipples? why?) that are so jarringly different from Burton's mythos that they appear to not even belong on the same planet, never mind the same city. Gotham appears to have evolved at an alarmingly rapid rate from a city of seedy slums and gothic cathedrals to a very East Asian-inspired neon metropolis. Well at least the taxes from the hard-working citizens of Gotham appear to have been put to good use. Batman Forever is an incredibly uneven film. There are good performances (Carrey), bad performances (Kilmer) and ugly performances (Jones). Batman's back-story is further fleshed out in dark flashbacks, and the introduction of Robin is handled well, but there's also homo-erotic suiting-up montages and bat-nipples. The film as a whole looks expensive, in a top-of-the-line fairground attraction sort of way, but it lacks finesse, and consistency in tone. It's clearly not the best Batman film, but Forever is also by-no-means the worst (audiences would have to wait another two years for the franchise-killer). One thing I will say for Joel Schumacher's first foray into the Batman universe - it's inconsistent, certainly, but it's never boring!… Expand

It now stars Val Kilmer as the titular character, a less believable Batman than even Michael Keaton, who was a hard one to take into mind. And along with the whole superficiality of the plot, the villains aren't all that great either. The three previous villains were the Joker (Jack Nicholson), Catwoman (Michelle Pfeiffer), and Penguin (Danny DeVito). Now, we have another duo, consisting of the Riddler (Jim Carrey) and Two-Face (Tommy Lee Jones). Unlike in BATMAN and BATMAN RETURNS, these villains are more silly and ridiculous than creepy. Just look at the DVD box--their outfits give away all the asininity. Should you see this? I wouldn't recommend it. If you do, will you like it? It depends if you can stand Jim Carrey in more than just comedy and drama.… Expand

Mais dans le fond seulement...

Michael Keaton a tombé le masque et il sera toujours regretté, remplacé par le Val Kilmer qui restera une tanche quoiqu'il advienne... mais ce dernier ne s'avère pas aussi lamentable qu'on aurait pu le craindre, car il y a bien pire en vérité que lui : le nain de jardin acrobate qui l'accompagne par exemple...

Tout n'est pas perdu malgré l'autre "erreur" de distribution, à savoir le pitoyable bouffon Jim Carrey, car l'excellent Tommy Lee Jones s'en paye une bonne tranche dans son rôle du Double Face tandis que Nicole Kidman joue l'une des meilleures vamps qu'on ait vues depuis longtemps : elle reste sobre et mystérieuse à la fois, véritablement fascinante.

La réalisation de Schumacher est de bon aloi, de même que la musique d'Elliot Goldenthal qui respecte l'esprit de la saga bien que sans égaler celle du premier... Plutôt spectaculaire et sans baisse de rythme malgré ses deux heures et si l'on met entre parenthèses le Carrey épileptique, ce Batman numéro 3 est assez convaincant et serait presque bon si la distribution n'avait connu d'erreurs aussi grossières, y compris bien entendu l'apparition du petit Robin des bois en latex (mais qu'est-ce qui leur a pris ?).… Expand

I was super annoyed that they changed Batman actors. The special effects were horrible compared to that of its predecessors. In addition to that, the story wasn’t even that good, the entire two hour movie was Two-Face and the Riddler trying to kill Batman. This seems overused by now, as this is the second movie’s premise in a nutshell. To its credit, Batman Forever has some really good plot twists, but sadly not enough to lift it from mediocrity. The biggest eye-roll of the entire film was that Forever contradicts previous Batman films, saying Two-Face killed Bruce Wayne’s parents. The Joker killed them as stated IN THE SAME FILM SERIES!

Batman Forever is Painfully Average, It's not as Good as Batman Begins, It's not as close to the Awesomeness of The Dark Knight, But it's better than Batman and Robin, A.K.A.

Batman forever does its best to right the wrongs of the last film (at least in the studio's eyes) but in the end it created what is the least offensive and extremely dull comic book film of the era. The more comedic tone and family orientedBatman forever does its best to right the wrongs of the last film (at least in the studio's eyes) but in the end it created what is the least offensive and extremely dull comic book film of the era. The more comedic tone and family oriented atmosphere is rather off putting when one considers the relative success of the previous installments. Jim Carrey has an amazing performance as Edward Nygma, and even Tommy Lee Jones has his moments, but in the end Joel Schumacher is simply not the director that Tim Burton is, regardless of the latter's mixed output.… Expand

Not Batman Forever ... Just not. The change of actor definitely did not help here. The story is pretty much nothing. Overall, just an above average Batman movie and I definitely don't recommend it.
