Well for one thing, this movie is not weird. It has the Filipino blend of comedy. Meaning it would be wacky, tons of slapstick, hilarious dialogue and of course a song or dance scene. This spoof of the popular Batman and Robin characters never let me down for a knee slapper. The costumes are poor imitations from the old Batman television series. Joey De Leon's antics as Batman and his real life son as Robin was nothing but classic Filipino comedy. Joker was the best villain in the movie. The laugh of his was immortalized by the late Rene Requiestas. While Tiyo Paenguin was played by one of the Philippines' top comedians, Panchito. The tandem works well and the on screen performance is nothing but short of laughs. However corny or cheesy the movie gets, Filipino's comedic innovation is at its worst and best.

... View More"Alyas Batman en Robin" is an unauthorized, Phillipino, Batman musical with cheesy results and "Batman and Robin"-esque tedium. Well, with that recipe it must be so bad that its good right?Right. If you're prepared to hit the fast-forward button a lot (you won't miss much) through the inescapable sappiness and get to the hysterically out-of-place musical numbers. If you enjoy a mind-numbing hour-and-a-half of utterly confusing fun, then see this.
... View MoreThis movie features Philippines' funnyman Joey De Leon taking on the mantle of Batman. The story is actually a parody of the popular 1960's TV show and has absolutely nothing in common with the current dark Batman movies, comics, animated series, save for the costumes and the aliases. The producers couldn't change the names for something that sounds cool. They wanted a Batman parody and how can you change a name like Batman? Not surprisingly, Regal Studios went into legal entanglement with Warner Bros., but it looks like Regal won.Watching the movie from a a strong critical viewpoint, the movie is totally pathetic. The movie is simply made for fun, even poking jokes about Batman, such as the bat-synonyms: Bat-coffee, bat-juice etc. Most of the humor is made for the country of origin (Philippines). Batfans may have hated Warner Bros.' BATMAN & ROBIN for ruining the franchise. This one takes no pretensions of its inspiration. The ending features a weird dance number by "superheroes" from both Marvel and DC. If you're a batfan, you just might want to check this movie out for sheer curiosity.
