Batman vs Double-Face

Anyone old enough to remember the original 60's Batman TV series will love this. It's great that this movie mirrors the 60's show i.e. it has the old batmobile and even better the voices of Adam West, Burt Ward and Julie Newmar as Catwoman. Another former Catwoman Lee Meriwether also has a small part. William Shatner does an excellent job as Dent/Two face and the whole movie embraces the tongue in cheek wackiness of the original series. This must've been one of the last projects Adam West was involved in prior to his death. All I can say is that he went out on a high.

Sequel to the 2016 adventure Return Of The Caped Crusaders this is another animated outing in the vein of the original television series complete with original cast.

Adam West, Burt Ward & Julie Newmar return to reprise their roles with more goofy comedy and nostalgic charm.

This time Two Face has returned and it's down to the dynamic duo to stop him.

This alike the original was at a disadvantage from the get go as I'd never been a fan of the original television series. I never disliked it, I just never saw the appeal.

Batman vs. Two-Face is loyal to the source material although a tad darker in places. Alike the first film this will appeal to fans of the original show but possibly them and them alone.

Nostalgic, charming but highly niche.

The Good:

Nostalgic

Well made

Great voice cast

The Bad:

Won't appeal to everyone

Things I Learnt From This Movie:

Friends before females is the pg version of bro's before ho's

Your mother wears combat boots is a totally over the top insult!

If you like the old Batman TV show, you will like this. It's probably even funnier than the show. Even though Two-Face is in the title, all the villains are in this one too. It's a shame they didn't start making these Batman '66 cartoons 20 years ago. I hope they find an Adam West impersonator and make more of these.

This film is the perfect way to cap off the career of Adam West. With the script by Michael Jelenic & James Tucker (inspired by a story by Harlan Ellison), and a supporting cast of Burt Ward, Julie Newmar & William Shatner as "Two-Face," there can be no better way to bid farewell to the Caped Crusader. At the film's end, comes this heartfelt goodbye: "Rest Well, Bright Knight." We'll never forget you, Adam. Godspeed.

Catwoman (Julie Newmar) is in prison. Professor Hugo Strange has invented an evil-extractor machine. While extracting from Gotham's most evil villains, an accident leaves District Attorney Harvey Dent (William Shatner) scarred in half. Despite a plastic surgery fix, he returns to work as an assistant to the ADA. Batman (Adam West) and Robin (Burt Ward) have to battle the new villain Two-Face.

This is most notable for all the voices from the 60's. Considering that Adam West died in the same year, this probably serves as one of the book-ends of Adam West's Batman. I wouldn't mind doing more campy comedy in this, but Two-Face's brutal look does not allow that easily. At the end of the day, it is nice to let a legend ride off into the sunset.
