        I really can't understand what they thought
they were doing with Batman Forever and this new one.
1st Batman movie - good movie. 2nd movie - not as good
as the first, too many characters. 3rd movie - hey,
let's add MORE characters!!! that'll make it much
better!!!! (uh-huh) new movie - EVEN MORE characters
crammed into it. Even with a good director (which the
film doesn't have), 5 major characters is too many to
juggle in a meager 2 hours.

        That's Uma Thruman, not Julia Roberts.

        I'll go see it, I'm expecting it to be pretty
funny. Not intentionally funny, mind you, but funny
nonetheless. How could it not be, with Arnold in that
ridiculous get-up?
