Tongue-in-cheek humor prevails in Batman, a witty homage to the Dynamic Duo's exaggerated exploits. The Caped Crusaders (Adam West and Burt Ward) are called in as a last resort when the criminal masterminds of the millennium team up to conquer Gotham City by turning the U.N. Security Council into dehydrated dust; among the villains are the Joker (Cesar Romero), Catwoman (Lee Meriwether), the Riddler (Frank Gorshin), and the Penguin (Burgess Meredith). The entire cast is excellent, particularly West and Ward, who distinguish themselves among a standout list with hilariously straight-faced performances. The film includes some truly memorable scenes, highlighted by a particularly tenacious shark with a vertical leap that would put Spud Webb to shame and a bomb on the waterfront with no place to explode (nuns, infants and lovebirds beware!). ~ Jeremy Beday, Rovi

Very entertaining. Some wonderfully cheesy moments. The rubber shark attacking Batman & the scene with Batman trying to get rid of the lit bomb off the pier, are just some of the classic scenes. Adults will find it very funny and you can watch this with your kids around as well. Oh and most of the villains are in this one too.

ADAM WEST IS BATMAN. Plain and simple. No one else can be Batman. It is because of this that this is the only Batman movie to see. If you are a true Batman fan you will have seen this already and if not, see it. It is funny, campy, weird, and wonderful.
