Batman Returns celebrates its 30th anniversary!

A Dark Knight, the Caped Crusader, ol' Boogaloo Bats. There is a Batman for all seasons. But whatever you call him, he's known far and wide as a comic book hero who's managed to keep relevant in entertainment for decades, re-invented time and time again to answer a nation's distress Bat-signal all. It was camp colors and biff–bang–pow for the 1960s (the Batman TV show). The '80s found a taste for blockbuster art deco madness (Tim Burton's Batman). The '90s got the best of it (Mask of the Phantasm) and the worst (Batman & Robin). The world of the 2000s demanded realism and it got Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight trilogy. Recently, he played nice with the Justice League. But now, Robert Pattinson dons the cowl in 2022's long-awaited The Batman.

Holy review aggregates! Now we've gathered all the theatrical Batman movies in one list (including the one night stand of The Killing Joke), ranked by Tomatometer! (And see all things Batsy on film and television with our Batman franchise page.)
