Batman franchise starting its plunge - Batman Forever Reviews

The worst was to come for the Batman movies in Batman & Robin, but Batman Forever was a huge step behind the first two movies by Tim Buron. The story was not pretty much inspired and the acting performances, except for Jim Carey who was stunning in his role of the Sphynx, were seriously poor. Val Kilmer simply did not fit as Batman / Bruce Wayne, nobody wanted a Robin appearance, and Nicole Kidman's character was ridiculous. The visuals were good here and there, but those fluorescent colors were too much for me. Joel Schumacher simply missed the mark, and he was to miss it even more in the next Batman, bringing the franchise to almost death. Oh, and Michael Keaton was the best in Batman's role, no doubt there.
