Batman Forever(1995)

5.5/10

dir. Joel Schumacher

A-Tier

A-Tier 4K. The most divisive Batman film and the neon production design actually works in HDR. Schumacher's Gotham is garish on purpose and the 4K presentation leans into it.

Batman & Robin(1997)

3.8/10

dir. Joel Schumacher

B-Tier

Batman and his sidekick Robin attempt to the foil the sinister schemes of a deranged set of new villains, most notably the melancholy Mr. Freeze, who wants to make Gotham City into an arctic region, and the sultry Poison Ivy, a botanical femme fatale. As the Dynamic Duo contend with these bad guys, a third hero, Batgirl, joins the ranks of the city's crime-fighters.

Falling Down(1993)

7.4/10
