Wordiezett So much average
MamaGravity good back-story, and good acting

Fatma Suarez The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
Ian Thompson I recently acquired this DVD release with the added bonus of the SUPERHERO CELEBRITY ROAST... I knew watching this would be a challenge, though despite warnings from a friend, nothing could have prepared me for just how bad it was! It was 90 minutes of my life wasted that I will never get back, and would be worthy of inclusion if any city was going to put on a CRINGE FESTIVAL.If you think you are up to the challenge and brave enough, order it online and see if you can get through it in one sitting.... Be afraid... Be very afraid...
StuOz Australia calling. I never knew this even existed until just hours ago when, by chance, I bumped into on YouTube. Amazing! When I saw Batman and Robin talking like the 1960s B&R my jaw hit the ground! How could this have been made without anybody ever talking about it over the last three decades? A live action Adam West/Burt Ward Batman show in 1979!I have read so many things about Batman/Adam West, I have seen a few television shows on Adam West, but no mention of this?? This is eleven years after Batman (1966-68) ended but Adam and Burt look just great! And they are sometimes with my other caped friend Captain Marvel which makes it even better! You can say what you like about the bad jokes, and I admit the non-Batman parts of this show are mostly unwatchable, but hey, when B&R are present the whole thing is well worth watching...and I want it on DVD.
spriforever When I was young, this was the greatest thing to ever happen to me because I was so into comic books. It's like a blur now, but I would love to see it again. It sucked, but in such a cool way. If I didn't meet up with someone else who remembers it as a blur, but knew that Adam West played the Batman role, I'd have never known the name of the movie.
Dougie B Here's an idea...Let's take all of DC Comics' top Super-heroes... and make a sitcom out of them!That's exactly what this was, laughtrack and all. Think 'Superfriends' in live action form. This series contained a total of two episodes, the first one being all of the heroes trying to spoil a plot of world domination against a number of villians. And it all took place between a park, a gas station, a dirt road, and their headquarters.The second episode was a roast hosted by Ed McMahon, where all of the heroes were humiliated by former friends and family members. Just plain painful to watch.
