i still like it though . warren beatty be only fair a the comic book hero . what save this movie be the set and the incredible cast and it offshoots a mediocre script . i really expect something more substantial in the term of action and or plot but i get very little . the main reason to watch this movie be to watch some of the big star in hollywood at the time in such an unusual film . the one person who do a terrible job and do not even belong in this film be madonna . she do not belong in this movie and her acting job be pretty bad . the movie at some point just stand still . you expect something more and you get nothing . al pacino play a really bad dude and he do pretty good . he and beatty do make an excellent good guy and bad guy . it be also interesting to see dustin hoffman and and warren beatty in a film other than isthar . i do not see ishtar but i heard bad thing . the thing about this movie be it be good and but it could have be so much good . i like it a a child because i think it look cool and and visually the movie be amazing and the set be incredible and the writing be only fair and and with such a cast in the movie i would expect a little good anyway . spoileri especially think the finale be not big enough . it be interest but for such a grand scale film i just think it could have end with a little more of a bang . the reason to watch this movie be the atmosphere . the movie only use the 7 comic book color make it all that more excellent visually anyway . the costume and makeup be flawless as well . the facial makeup for the villain be great . beatty be just not up to such a big than life character . still and this be a good movie that could have be much much more . it be to me good than batman and the other comic book adaptation that come out close to the same time . of course that movie be much big in term of gross .
