Consensus: Director Tim Burton's dark, brooding atmosphere, Michael Keaton's work as the tormented hero, and the flawless casting of Danny DeVito as The Penguin and Christopher Walken as, well, Christopher Walken make the sequel better than the first.
Runtime: 2 hrs 6 mins
Genre: Science-Fiction/Fantasy
Synopsis: In director Tim Burton's sequel to his successful BATMAN (1989), the Caped Crusador (Michael Keaton) is pitted against the demented, ravenous Penguin (Danny DeVito), a pitiful, orphaned... [More]
Starring: Michael Keaton, Michelle Pfeiffer, Danny DeVito, Christopher Walken
Director: Tim Burton
O design de produção é inspirado e Keaton busca conferir peso dramático ao herói, mas o roteiro é pedestre e Pingüim jamais se torna um vilão interessante. Por outro lado, a sensualidade de Pfeiffer quase redime o filme. Quase.
Bigger, better and more sophisticated than the first outing.

More of the same, but nowhere near as good (funny, disturbing, obsessive) as the uneven original, revealing arrested development on every level.
Top CriticThe fights and chases are incoherent and over-the-top, with the result being confusion rather than suspense.
Where Burton's ideas end and those of his collaborators begin is impossible to know, but result is a seamless, utterly consistent universe full of nasty notions about societal deterioration, greed and other base impulses.
Top CriticThis is less of a sequel than reworking of the first film's themes, with greater attention paid to the villains (all colorful and more intriguing than the hero) and more visually inventive set pieces, albeit contained in a less coherent work.
Bigger, louder, more relentlessly action-packed than its predecessor, Batman Returns batters its audience into submission.
A bizarre mixture of poetic brilliance and clumsy ineptitude.
About the only thing it had going for it was Pfeiffer in a catsuit, stiletto heels, with a whip. Wowsers.
The movie in which Tim Burton mostly fixes what he got wrong ... Unfortunately, he also screws up the stuff he got right.

Burton['s] staging is expert, and his character conceptions are distinctive and gratifying.

Atmospheric and utterly barmy.
A fast, funny, exciting assault on the senses that outshines the overrated original.
