I did not like this movie. While it is well-made and has a fascinating villian, Catwoman, it feels like it just stepped out of a Halloween costume catalog. The movie is so dark and wierd that it comes across as fake. Plus, the movie feels so hopeless and is so full of despair that all the fun has been sucked out of the Batman franchise. Penguin was gross and despicable, I just wanted him to die. Catwoman was interesting but the movie wasn't really about her. I have to give it credit for being well made, but Batman Returns was overly dark, overly stylish, and no fun whatsoever.

11 and up

Fist saw this when i was 7. although this is one DARK film, this did not scare me. But there was a scene I did not like, I would cover my eyes when it came on, where Penguin bites an annoying mans nose and blood flies a bit. but, saying that, it only lasts about a second. I also was not keen on seeing the Penguins bile spewing corpse underwater at the, end, gross, but not scary. The "charred" corpse looks cartoony. Catwomans come have sex with me thing went over my head. This film other than the aforementioned did not bother me and I watched it through my childhood.
