This is one of my favourite movies of all time. It’s one of those movies that you either adore or don’t get at all – whenever I recommend it to people, they either say it’s the funniest movie they’ve ever seen or they say they turned it off 20 minutes in. It’s extremely campy and very homosexual and, in my opinion, was decades ahead of its time: it perfectly satirized a kind of extremely corporate contrived superhero filmmaking that didn’t even really exist yet. I quote the line “they may be drinkers, Robin, but they’re also human beings” extremely regularly.
