All reviews by user Date  Helpful Rating 1 out of 2 users found this helpful  Rich in Character, Vision, and StylePosted: 7/8/2004A review of Batman Returns by GreggBray1 The visuals scream German Expressionism, the characters are well layered, and the third act generates a kind of visceral excitement that was lacking in later installments.<br><br>Each villain mirrors a quality of Bruce Wayne, and it's in his intereactions with each face: The businessman (Max Shreck), The Man-Animal with Parental Dispondant Issues (Penguin)), and the Leather Clad vigilante(Catwoman), that we truly understand who Bruce Wayne/Batman is. We clearly see the psychological, as well as physical, challenges that he must face to not fall into the void and become on of them.<br><br>If the film deviates from the narrative of the comics, it is not a problem, as it truly captures the source material's THEMES in a way that not even the animated series could. It is an absolute triumph. Was this review helpful? Sign In 1-1 of 1 Per Page |
