Batman Returns Ratings & Reviews
Bitch Media
Stephanie Rosenfeld
The ending does not disappoint.
Slant Magazine
Justin Clark
The strange, ambitious character work that comprises Batman Returns is wrapped in the perfunctory framework of a Tim Burton superhero film.
Chicago Tribune
Dave Kehr
There are flashes of commercially oriented action and humor, but the overall feeling is one of a languid depression sprung straight from the heart of its author.
Los Angeles Times
Kenneth Turan
[Burton's] dark, melancholy vision is undeniably something to see, but it is a claustrophobic conception, not an expansive one, oppressive rather than exhilarating, and it strangles almost all the enjoyment out of this movie without half trying.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Desmond Ryan
As Beetlejuice and Edward Scissorhands reminded us, Burton always has been more absorbed by what his audience sees than by what his movies say.
Boston Globe
Jay Carr
Batman Returns is the rarest of Hollywood beasts -- a sequel that's better than the original
TIME Magazine
Richard Corliss
Burton, once an animator at Disney, understands that to go deeper, you must fly higher, to liberation from plot into poetry. Here he's done it. This Batman soars.
The New Yorker
Terrence Rafferty
As in the first movie, Burton gives the material a luxurious masked-ball quality and a sly contemporary wit without violating the myth's low, cheesy comic-book origins.
Orlando Sentinel
Jay Boyar
Burton and company return to the prickly humor that gave such a jolt to the earlier film -- frequently finding it in unexpected places.
Chicago Tribune
Gene Siskel
This time the richness of the Batman movie is not in its production design but rather in Burton's and screenwriter Daniel Waters' Freudian view of adult human behavior.
Newsweek
David Ansen
Something about the filmmaker's eccentric, surreal, childlike images seems to strike a deep chord in the mass psyche: he makes nightmares that taste like candy.
Entertainment Weekly
Owen Gleiberman
Exhaustingly inventive.
Chicago Reader
Jonathan Rosenbaum
More of the same, but nowhere near as good (funny, disturbing, obsessive) as the uneven original, revealing arrested development on every level.
Variety
Todd McCarthy
Where Burton's ideas end and those of his collaborators begin is impossible to know, but result is a seamless, utterly consistent universe full of nasty notions about societal deterioration, greed and other base impulses.
New York Times
Janet Maslin
Because the film's predominant motif is that of wounded individuals re-inventing themselves as wily villains, its most memorable episodes are early ones explaining each main character's transformation.
Rolling Stone
Peter Travers
Burton uses the summer's most explosively entertaining movie to lead us back into the liberating darkness of dreams.
Washington Post
Rita Kempley
Like a hyperactive 11-year-old, the director seems both uncomfortable with adult emotions and unable to focus on the overall portrait.
Austin Chronicle
Kathleen Maher
Most of what we see is simply entertaining as hell, even if it falls short of brilliant.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
Odd and sad, but not exhilarating.
