5 out of 5 stars Holy Tongue in Cheek Batman! this DVDs a must!   September 2, 2006

I cant praise this made for tv movie enough, its fantastic, not only for fans of the original BATMAN tv series but also lovers of nostalgia, biographical dramas and anyone with a sence of humour. Basically the premise of this drama is that Adam and Burt (playing themselves in the movie) are out to find the villain who has stolen the batmobile and during their time together they remember all about how the show came about, developed and finally ended, not to mention how they themselves were changed by the show. This reminiscing is done by the aid of flashbackss with a couple of actors playing the young Burt and Adam, and a lot of period detail. Its very cleverly done and fascinating viewing, not least because the chemistry is still there between Adam and Burt and they obviously had so much fun with this reunion special, it shines through on screen! There are so many in-jokes and Burt/Adam are such good sports, playing along with the jokes 100%. br / br /Its also very informative, find out why Burts tights (or what was in them) caused so much controversy at the time, what exactly WAS in Batmans utility belt and why there was so much muttering about the relationship between Batman and the boy wonder. The actors playing the young Burt and Adam are fantastic, and its hard to think a better choice could have been made, most convincing. I recommend this DVD because it is so entertaining and is worth watching again and again, just seeing Adam do the batdance again is worth the money!!!


5 out of 5 stars The ideal companion!   June 29, 2009
PHILIPPE VANDENBOSSCHE (Asse Belgium)
"Batman: The Movie" (1966) and this one: the perfect couple. A pity they couldn't use excerpts from the TV series, but the whole idea of the two actors being forced to act as crimefighters for real, because someone stole the original Batmobile from an exposition, and having them recall, during the search, the good old days of the shooting of the series, is just wonderful! Although the actors who enact the young Adam and Burt in the flashbacks could have resembled the originals a little more, the whole thing convinces. It does. Still, the big question remains: when will there ever be a DVD release of the TV series? Maybe never, but fortunately, some benevolent souls record them from TV broadcasts, and put them on YouTube!

A hugely enjoyable tv movie from several years ago. This features adam west and burt ward, the stars of the batman show from the 1960's, playing themselves, whilst on the track of a criminal who has stolen the batmobile used in the series. Hugely funny sequences follow as they play themselves trying to track the car down. Scenes are knowingly shot in the style of the original programme, and there's a voiceover of the kind that you'd get before a commerical break that only adam can hear. br / br /Intercut with all this are scenes showing the making of the programme, with younger actors playing adam and burt from those days. These are interesting both as a look at the making of it, as they offer some fascinating trivia, and as a warts and all portrayal. They commendably don't shy away from adam west's womanising and other problems of the time. br / br /You probably have to have seen the original series to fully appreciate this, given the style in which it's done, but if you have, it's a hugely entertaing trip down memory lane. The dvd offers a trailer and scene access and nothing much else in the way of extras, but it's the movie that makes it good.

If you're a diehard fan you'll give it 4 or 5. I'm fond of the 60's series and that's what this film's approach is. Nobody's going to give Burt or Adam an oscar for their acting (then or here). Forget the plot and just enjoy the banter between the two stars, and a few of their old co-stars. There are also some fascinating dramatised(and well acted!) flashbacks to the actors' experiences of the making of the original Batman series. Fans will need to have this as part of their collection. I would just rent it!
