Philanthropic entrepreneur Bruce Wayne (Adam West) and his youthful ward Dick Grayson (Burt Ward) lead a double life: they are the Caped Crusaders crime-fighting duo Batman and Robin. A secret Batpole in the Wayne mansion leads to the Batcave where Police Commissioner Gordon calls the fearless duo on the Batphone with the latest emergency threatening Gotham City. Racing to the scene of the crime in the Batmobile Batman and Robin must (with the help of trusty Bat-Gadgets) thwart the efforts of a variety of master criminals. The dastardly deeds begin when The Penguin (Burgess Meredith) uses his flipper-powered submarine to steal a super-dehydrator which extracts all moisture from humans and reduces them to particles of dust. But the Antarctic Anarchist is not working alone gentle reader! No a plot this size requires the combined evil thinking caps of four costumed criminals: The Penguin himself The Riddler (Frank Gorshin) The Joker (Cesar Romero) and Catwoman (Lee Meriwether). And as Commissioner Gordon (Neil Hamilton) puts it The sum of the angles of that rectangle is too monstrous to contemplate! Using the super dehydrator the United Underworld (as they dub themselves) suck the moisture out of the nine-member United Nations Security Council leaving nine multicolored piles of dust. Can no one stop this blueprint of badness? This design of devilry? Two men can (well one man and one boy wonder) with the help of their trusty butler Alfred (Alan Napier). But first they'll have to defeat a ticking time bomb an exploding octopus and a shark with a six-foot vertical leap. Can the Dynamic Duo stop the fearsome foursome in time? Will Bruce Wayne fall under the spell of lovely Miss Kitka exotic correspondent for the Moscow Bugle who happens to be Catwoman in disguise? Can the man-eating shark be stopped with Batman's Shark-Repellent Bat-Spray? Will Commissioner Gordon decipher the Riddler's criminal conundrums?

Sometimes a filmmaker's second movie gets labelled as a sophomore slump. David O Russell shreds that fate with Flirting with Disaster, an outrageous, free-spirited comedy about private people forced into public situations. Mel Coplin (Ben Stiller) finds the opportunity he's been waiting a lifetime for: an adoption agency rep (Téa Leoni) has located his birth parents and the agency will fly him to California if they can record the reunion. With wife Nancy (Patricia Arquette) and new son in tow, the neurotic Mel is compelled to discover his origins, despite the protests of his neurotic adoptive parents (a wonderful Mary Tyler Moore and George Segal). To give away the plot any more would be a crime, but as the title states, Mel is on a collision course of Oedipal proportions. Russell, who made incest an intriguing black-comedy topic in Spanking, is very liberal with sex, and permits dangerous situations. The two women along for the ride are not just bit players: Leoni (Deep Impact) keeps her high-energy comic routine flying, while the grounded Arquette looks after the baby, despite the mad wanderings of her husband. Stiller is a perfect comic foil.--Doug Thomas, Amazon.com
