An OK introduction, especially that she looks unimpressed with Dick.


LOL, she's so obviously evil in a way that mostly works.
 
Glad to see the B&R "outrage" coming to an end. And honestly Schumacher needs to quit apologizing for it and Clooney needs to accept it like he did the paycheck. It's not like he didn't read the script. It's a fun diversion from the gritty and dark versions and honestly the film really holds up visually after 20 years. It's a good looking movie and I still love the soundtrack.
 
I think a followup might have been the right thing to bring closure to this series and allow Shcumacher and Clooney to right a miscue. I think it could have been really good.

I think this movie did the best job conveying Bruce and Alfred's relationship as the boy and the man who raised him, out of all the movies.
 
I believe in their final battle Batman actually did try to kill Mr. Freeze or at least was reckless about it happening-he caused Freeze to fall off and it was random that he landed where he did and survived rather than fell to his death. Not that it was a bad or malicious moment but it does take a bit away from the idea that at least in B&R (alone of the old series) Batman doesn't kill the villain, well he doesn't but only barely.
 
Could David Duchovny (considered to play Batman according to imdb) have been better than Clooney as a lighter Batman?
 
Tony Goldmark, of Some Jerk With A Camera fame, is doing a live tweet of the film:
