About

You may like Batman Forever if you want a neon, campy superhero ride with big villains and lots of action, but Not for you if you prefer the darker, more serious approach of Batman Begins or Daredevil.

Pros: neon-bright Gotham style; over-the-top villains; entertaining action | Cons: messy, cluttered plot; uneven lead performances; goofy tone for some
