    If the original Spencer Gordon Bennet serial was a disappointment, its sequel was nigh on a disaster. With Lewis Wilson and Douglas Croft consigned to well-merited obscurity, Robert Lowery and John Duncan assumed the mantles of Bruce Wayne and Dick Grayson, while Lyle Talbot stepped in as Commissioner Gordon. However, there's little suspense in their pursuit of the Wizard, a master criminal out to secure the diamonds needed to operate the ray gun he's stolen from eccentric professor, William Fawcett. Made in a hurry and on the cheap, this is the undoubtedly the nadir of the Caped Crusader's screen career.

    This film is so Coooooool! (Not)

    I didn't really know how to approach this review. The film is so bad, and there are so many flaws to it, that it's hard to know where to start!

    • Time Out
  • The dullest of the series so far, gaudy but empty of emotional or narrative interest, and the action soon palls.

    • Halliwell's Film Guide
  • "...[Clooney's] voice, bearing and dark cowl-friendly eyes make him the best Batman yet..."

    • USA Today
  • "...The closest the film series has come to the once-reviled 60s television show..."
