Good in the day, but forgot due it's hilarious and campy Adam west's version of the Dark Knight. If you enjoy batman light toned and campy this is perfect for you if not, it's still worth a watch for a laugh

Dear Film Lovers, This has probably been the most stupid movie that I have seen recently. I wished that at least I would have had a good laugh now and then, but I simply did not. More recent movies are more sophisticated and endowed with lots of special effects. This one was made in the year of 1966, that is, fifty-two years ago and it only had the technology that was available back then. Under these circumstances, I have expected that something was lying hidden somewhere at the root of this unending saga. There is nothing there. It is just a simple movie for little boys who want to chase bad guys under a stupid disguise. Please do not waste your time with this movie. Best Regards, DOBRESCU_Mihai.

(Flash Review)The Comic Book On Screen. It really is like a live action comic as it is intentionally goofy and it amusingly pokes fun at itself. The jokes run the gamut from funny to very tacky. Full of fun characters and Adam West is really good for the character portrayal he is going for. All the villains are solid. One might be skeptical of the plot but it is good, very fun and has an overall unique charm. It is certainly of its time and now cemented in history.

This slice of classic camp is a love-it or hate-it movie. Personally, I'm in the former minority as this colourful and supremely silly romp is right up my street. They certainly don't make 'em like this anymore, more's the pity, and the obvious yet delightful jokes in this film are a far cry from the crude humour that seems to populate the movies today. Packed with lots of comic-book action, colourful characters in colourful costumes, cheesy and fun special effects and lots of over-emphasis of dialogue which serves to mock straight-laced adventure movies, BATMAN is a breath of fresh air in a stale, dry world.Adam West and Burt Ward alternatively mug knowingly at the camera or incredibly act seriously as the pair of dapper heroes who somehow bring style to the sight of two men running down the street in tights and capes. They are ably supporting by the delightful quartet of villains; from the seductive Catwoman to Cesar Romero's impossible to miss over-the-top turn as the Joker, unable to stop himself laughing maniacally all the while. Frank Gorshin is overlooked as the fiendish Riddler, filling the skies with his crazy riddles, while the inimitable Burgess Meredith hams it up for all he's worth as the Penguin.There are many memorable jokes and scenes (often combined) in this film to enjoy. My favourite the bomb gag where Batman finds himself with a hissing bomb, but his efforts to get rid of it are hampered at every turn by mothers with prams, a marching band, children, even ducks! All leading to the classic understated line "some days you just can't get rid of a bomb"! The amusing action scenes are harmless and non-violent enjoyment, the best being the submarine battle at the finale where the air is filled with coloured words like "thwack" and "smack" as in the television series. The plot is ludicrous, yes, but packed with incident and with a pleasing eye for false logic which never falters. Although strictly aimed at a youth market, Batman is enjoyable for all and definitely needs to be seen by those nostalgic for the '60s or the superheroes of old. Great fun!
