This is the kind of movie you can watch over and over again because the sum of its good moments far outweighs its weaker moments. With a great cast, a simple story and a fabulous setting, the movie takes us to a situation where a very nice woman (Drew) develops a relationship with a complicated man (Adam) while their children interact in ways that are convenient to provoke laughter. With exaggerated characters (this happens in every Sandler romantic comedy) there is no situation that does not generate at least a smile. Normally the third segment of the film shows weakness in this kind of film because it tries to give an emotional twist to something that we really saw as a comedy and therein lies the problem. If we ignore this, the film is enjoyable and can be watched over and over again.
In a certain sense, this Batman film is more related to the series and the film from the sixties with Adam West and Burt Ward. The tone is more colorful, camp, cartoonish and exaggerated. The villains are devoid of common sense and are slaves to their limiting behaviors which evidently guarantee their defeat. It is thanks to this that the film moves quickly, does not make a fool of itself and leaves a taste superior to Burton's films which have a darker tone and are further from the best Batman in history (West).
It is always a challenge to offer three villains and that is a sign of weakness. However, in this case, they are all given space to show stupidity and make it easy for Batman, without much effort, to defeat them.
Val Kilmer is a good Batman and the casting is adequate. The film is entertaining and that is exactly what is expected of Batman. The Burton and Nolan saga were the lowest in relation to our beloved character.

This film succeeds in conveying an authentic experience to the viewer about the art of flying fighter planes. On the technical side, it is a magnificently accomplished film and that is to be applauded. Its story is another matter: on the one hand, we have the interaction of several pilots, whose jealousy and internal problems fail to captivate us. There is a romantic story that is well filmed but does not captivate us and that is something we must thank the director for, a true craftsman who with little material (the script is poor) manages to fill our retinas with dazzling images. The conclusion is that after the final adventures we are left happy and eager to fly a fighter plane and blow up a couple of Migs. That is no small feat.
