Time -
Batman Returns could mark a happy beginning for Hollywood -- not because it might make a mint but because it dispenses with realism and aspires to animation, to the freedom of idea and image found in the best feature-length cartoons.

Christian Science Monitor -
I find it the most adventurous and imaginative American film I've seen this year - and also the weirdest.
|
|
Orlando Sentinel -
Like the hero himself, the movie is larger than life - a horrific fantasy that gets carried away with itself as the mood builds and the tension mounts
|
|
Baltimore Sun -
This baby takes place in Tim Burton's id. It's a great place to visit, but I wouldn't want to live there.

Chicago Tribune -
Our rooting interest is not for any macho act by Batman to save the city but for each character to achive some sort of emotional peace. That makes for a strange but refreshing action story.
