Two villains in one superhero film seems excessive. They're both pretty good, though. The Penguin is top notch, peak villain.

Batman making out with a villain who just blew up a building seems wholly inappropes. Batman puts his sexuality before his morality, it would seem.

It's peak Burton set design, excellent model zooms, and rockin' Elfman soundtrack. Basically a Batman-themed Beetlejuice, and clearly how every Batman film should be.

Batman himself is far and away the dumbest and most useless part of this movie. I guess it was before superhero spinoff films were box office sensations, so they couldn't justify just making a Catwoman film yet. They would wait another 12 years before making that mistake.
