After the first two installments of Batman we were looking forward to a fun and entertaining conclusion. Instead, it seemed this movie dragged along at a snail's pace, other than for a couple too-long fight scenes.

What happened to the characters? Three hours and only Robin showed any real character or depth. Cat Woman came in about 4th in the Cat Women of the past. Not only Michelle in The Penquin, but also Eartha Kitt and Julie Newmar far surpassed the latest model.

As for a villain, there was nothing remotely special about this incredible hulk, other than his muffled speech. We found him totally unbelievable and had far too many followers who were suicidal. I mean, who in their right -- or wrong -- mind would follow this guy to their certain death? I guess we must have seen a different movie than those who are raving about this. Sorry, but we call 'um as we see 'um.
