	Batman Returns (1992) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		Batman Returns allowed us a better look at Batman/Bruce Wayne himself, who was little more than an imposing supporting cast member in the first film; I loved Jack Nicholson's over-the-top performance, but THIS fanboy wanted more of the Caped Crusader in the film.
		Batman Returns gave us that and more...we got Batman/Bruce character development, the AWESOME give-and-take between Batman and Catwoman (one of the strangest courtships in comics), and Burton even tossed us a little bit of fun, dark humor with Shreck and the Penguin.
		Batman Returns excelled in that it was a dark, disturbingly insane portrait of Batman and Gotham City; a film that carefully balances on the fine line where and darkness and madness meet.

	Batman Returns - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Batman attempts to rescue the Princess but is attacked by Catwoman, who seizes the Ice Princess and deposits her on the edge of the building's roof.
		Batman is then accosted by Catwoman, who comments that she still has seven lives left after his knocking her from the roof.
		The initially negative reaction to Batman Returns, however, prompted Warner Brothers to re-think their approach to the franchise, and the series was handed to director Joel Schumacher, who adopted a much more lighthearted and camp approach to the characters.

	Batman Returns (video game) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Batman Returns is a video game for various platforms based on the movie of the same name.
		Batman has a number of weapons and moves at his disposal, including a standard punch, and the batarang.
		Of special note are the two side-scrolling racing levels, obviously inspired by Sunsoft's "Batman" (based on the first film) for Sega Genesis, in which the player controlled the Batmobile and the Batskiboat.

	Batman Returns - Rotten Tomatoes
		In director Tim Burton's sequel to his successful BATMAN (1989), the Caped Crusador (Michael Keaton) is pitted against the demented, ravenous Penguin (Danny DeVito), a pitiful, orphaned psychopathic freak who once went on a baby-killing spree, and a "power" hungry capitalist villain Max Shreck (Christopher Walken).
		Of all the Batman pictures, this is the most striking, atmospheric and effective.
		This is less of a sequel than reworking of the first film's themes, with greater attention paid to the villains (all colorful and more intriguing than the hero) and more visually inventive set pieces, albeit contained in a less coherent work.

	Tim Burton Dream Site - Batman Returns
		In many ways Batman has found an enemy which he cannot help be drawn to, and due to this he cannot help but become weak when faced with her in combat.
		Batman is left to fight both of them the penguin and Shrek whilst dodging the seductive blows of Catwoman in between.
		In Batman Returns he uses his diverse yet distinguishable talents to create a demoralising Metropolis that is perfect for the movie and a visual pleasure.

	BATMAN RETURNS
		While Batman deals with these problems with some help from his butler and trusted aide, Alfred (MICHAEL GOUGH), as Bruce Wayne he must deal with his new found attraction for Selina that conflicts with his adversarial relationship with her alter-ego, Catwoman.
		The Penguin returns a comment to a young attractive woman, "You're the hottest young person a role model could have." He then slowly puts a pin on the woman's chest, taking time to linger at her clothed breast.
		Batman punches a large man without any effect, but has placed a bomb in the man's belt and then tosses him into an open grate where he then explodes (not seen, but heard).

	UGO Batman Hub - Batman Returns: Two-Disc Special Edition DVD Review - BATMAN.UGO.COM
		Batman Returns is arguably the "deepest" movie of the first four and the closest to Burton's twisted visions.
		Batman Returns wasn't quite as big a film as its predeccesor and neither is its DVD, largely because most of the origin material, how Burton and Keaton became involved, is covered on the first release of the Anthology.

	Batman Returns: Special Edition (1992)
		The existence of 1997’s Batman and Robin meant that it wouldn’t be seen as the worst of the four, but most fans seem to prefer 1989’s Batman and 1995’s Batman Forever.
		Keaton played the distractedness of Wayne and the intensity of Batman with far greater depth and deftness in the sequel; he appeared much less strained and he was able to make Batman seem better integrated in the film than on the first occasion.
		Officially, Returns was the first movie to hit screens with a Dolby Digital 5.1 mix; unofficially, 1991’s Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country was the initial DD offering, for it was used as a “test case”.

	Filmtracks: Batman Returns (Danny Elfman)
		The original Batman score and film tore through the world with astounding financial, popular, and critical success, and the formula was seemingly set for a series of highly-anticipated sequels.
		In Batman Returns, the timpani do not resound, the bells are distant, the gong does not impress, and the brass are completely flat.
		Overall, the score gains a point for its loyalty to the original Batman theme (and this would be the last we would hear of it), but loses three points for its total disrespect towards the personality and power of the original Batman score.

	DVD Verdict Review - Batman Returns
		Batman isn't the mask or the alter ego.
		Batman, Burton's first entry in the series, was the first time the Dark Knight had been brought to the big screen since the campy television series of the 1960s.
		Batman set the standard by which all other on-screen comic book villains would be judged, I still prefer Batman Returns.

		The major fault of BATMAN RETURNS is that all the characters are so far removed from their comic book incarnations, that one can hardly even recognize them.

		Keaton returns in his last hurrah as millionaire playboy Bruce Wayne, and his superhero alter ego Batman, who has devoted his life to protecting the city of Gotham from its growing list of drug-store criminals and comic-book villains.
		Regardless of the commonplace script of "Batman Returns," the acting is superb throughout.
		"Batman Returns" will forever be the best of the original four Gotham City adventures, thanks to the dark and gothic atmosphere created by director Burton, but it doesn't live up to the current level of excellence that Hollywood has recently shown to our favorite superheroes.

	Thoughts on Stuff: Batman Returns
		I watched Batman Returns yesterday, because I'm going to write a paper on it for my class on action cinema.
		This is a film I wish people would rediscover, looking at it not as a Batman film, the title character doesn't have the most screentime, or serve as the primary narrative catalyst, but rather look at it in the context of Burton's other films, and as an unconventional character study.
		Batman Returns is so unique because it's one of the most personal blockbusters I've ever seen.

	DVDFILE.COM: Batman Returns review
		Considered the darkest, most difficult, most uncommercial entry into the Batman franchise, the often unfairly maligned Batman Returns is indeed the most complex and sinister episode of the series.
		Michael Keaton's Batman, though even here beginning to feel overpowered by the overload of villains, still manages to convey the inner demons and obsessions of Bruce Wayne to good effect.
		Danny DeVito probably garnered the most criticisms for his scary, abrasive performance as The Penguin, but it is worth noting that perhaps the script and Burton tended to place too the emphasis on the character, burdening him with having to carry more of the picture than is necessary.

	Batman Returns - Movie Review
		This tale told of Michael Keaton as Batman in a love/hate relationship with Catwoman, of a freak raised by penguins, of a power hungry industry giant who sought to leave the legacy of a polluting power plant.
		But what makes Batman Returns worth watching, aside from all of this, is the foreknowledge of what happened after.
		So, if you're a current Batman fan, see it for a glimpse of the better past, and, if you haven't seen it, see it for the opportunity to show why its so much better than the modern day sunny Jewel-on-the-soundtrack Batman.

	Batman Returns (Danny Elfman) - scorereviews.com soundtrack review
		In some ways better than Danny Elfman's score for the first Batman film (and vice versa), Batman Returns is one of the composers very finest, and most entertaining, scores.
		While the score for the first film was more action oriented, this score is slower and more emotional (It has its fair share of action, too, of course), although they both share the same dark and dramatic mood and sound.
		Batman Returns is also much more thematically interesting.
