These are the thoughts and observations of me — a woman of a certain age. (Oh, my, God, I'm 65!) I'm single. I'm successful enough (independent, self supporting). I live just outside Chicago, the best city in the world. I'm an aunt and a friend. I feel that voices like mine are rather underrepresented online or in print. So here I am. If my musings resonate with you, please visit my blog again sometime.

Monday Movie Meme
Share movies that make you go hmmmmmmm, and link back here so that others can find you. Batman Forever is a Val Kilmer Batman movie with a pair of above-the-title villains -- Tommy Lee Jones as Two Face and Jim Carrey as The Riddler. Nicole Kidman played a shrink who was studying bad guys and "Bat guys" and Dick Grayson's parents die and he becomes Robin. I had absolutely no idea what any of these plots had to do with one another, making this that most heinous of bad movies: Too convoluted to follow, too noisy to sleep through.
Hmm, I dont think it was confusing, just a bit more than was really needed. Two face was unnecessary in my opinion, it shouldve been about the Riddler and that was it. Certainly an interesting choice though.
ReplyDeleteI loved the soundtrack to Batman Forever, and loved the vibrant colors, but agree with the 'too much' factor.
ReplyDeleteyeah--I never got any of the batman movies either or the X men. Kaye—the road goes ever ever on
ReplyDeleteI love your last sentence!
ReplyDeleteOh well, I don't think Andy's ever found a movie too loud to sleep through ;0)
ReplyDeleteI skipped this installment in the franchise because I just couldn't buy Kilmer in that role.
I think I missed this one too. I take your word for it being too much.
