Wow that’s some stiff competition. Worse than Batman and Robin?
The Batman. It is difficult to describe how bad this film is, did I say bad? It's terrible, awful, tedious, slow, uninteresting, poorly written and directed. The characters are one dimensional. All of them. No one grows, or regresses, or has any insights, just the same dull mono-pitched nothing over and over by everyone.
A lot of it is just plain stupid. Batman uses facial recognition software that identifies anyone in seconds. Yet even though his mask barely covers his face, no one knows who he is. He is unconscious and in police custody for hours. Yet, no one looked under his mask to see the universally famous Bruce Wayne. His escape from the police station is a joke. There is no attempt to be even minimally plausible. And it goes on for three hours -three hours. It even manages to make an exploding city causing a tidal wave flood seem dull.
I feel bad for Robert Patterson. The good news is this movie is so forgettable and dull that it will not last in the public consciousness for very long. No stars.
