The Cannonball Run *** (1981, Burt Reynolds, Roger Moore, Farrah Fawcett, Dom DeLuise) – Classic Movie Review 6581
The ever-smiling, good-natured Burt Reynolds stars as J J McClure and Dom DeLuise plays his tubby sidekick Victor, as the duo take part in a daft, non-legal trans-America car chase in director Hal Needham’s madcap 1981 […]
The Batman *** (1943, Lewis Wilson, Douglas Croft, J Carrol Naish) – Classic Movie Review 5109
Director Lambert Hillyer’s wartime 1943 vintage 15-part film serial The Batman is exceptionally lively and enjoyable. It is notable as the first ever screen appearance of the Caped Crusader, giving Lewis Wilson the honour of […]
The LEGO Batman Movie *** (2017, voices of Will Arnett, Michael Cera, Rosario Dawson, Zach Galifianakis, Ralph Fiennes) – Movie Review
The LEGO Batman Movie (2017) is amusing and inventive enough but it’s a bit of a one-joke movie and would be much, much funnier as a half-hour short. It’s certainly struggling to fill one and […]

The Bat Whispers *** (1930, Chester Morris, Una Merkel, Maude Eburne, Spencer Charters) – Classic Movie Review 3592
Writer-director Roland West’s 1930 film version of Mary Roberts Rinehart’s spooky mansion stage chiller play The Bat is inevitably creaky but suitably creepy and satisfyingly funny, as a master arch criminal called The Bat steals a necklace […]
Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice ***½ (2016, Ben Affleck, Henry Cavill, Amy Adams, Jesse Eisenberg, Jeremy Irons, Gal Gadot) – Movie Review
Zack Snyder’s critically bashed superhero head-to-head is a box-office sensation, maybe surprisingly so, maybe not. The two for the price of one deal of infinitely rich and tormented human wrong-righter plus infinitely handsome and conflicted […]
Batman Begins ***** (2005, Christian Bale, Michael Caine, Cillian Murphy, Liam Neeson, Ken Watanabe, Katie Holmes, Rutger Hauer, Morgan Freeman, Tom Wilkinson) – Classic Movie Review 846
The darkness falls over Gotham City and co-writer/director Christopher Nolan’s thrilling 2005 Batman/Dark Knight reboot is a triumph, and so is Christian Bale’s sombre Bruce Wayne/Batman, who is centre stage all the way as we discover […]
