Editorial Review: Description: See how BATMAN really began. BATMAN started it all, and it's now available on DVD for the first time ever! Watch as mild-mannered Bruce Wayne (Lewis Wilson) becomes Batman, the classic superhero who, with Robin (Douglas Croft), protects Gotham City from the evil schemes of Dr. Tito Daka (J. Carrol Naish). Packed with adventures involving a radium-powered death ray, a deadly alligator pit, electronic zombies, and even the original Bat Cave, the BATMAN 2-disc set is a must-own DVD for any fan of the Caped Crusader!

![]() Rating: - The Real Batman Begins MovieThis is the first time Batman & Robin were ever brought to the big screen.We have an excellent cast of actors playing the various roles. Lewis Wilson as Batman isn't bad at all. So I have to wonder why he faded away from a film career after doing this serial? Douglas Croft is great as Robin the Boy Wonder. He looks the part right down to his thick curly hair. The story concerns Batman & Robin's battles with Dr. Tito Daka. Dr. Daka is a Japanese villain who is in America for the war effort. ...

Thank goodness we don't have to watch it on those old VHS tapes anymore. This DVD will make you feel like it's 1943 again and you're watching Batman help out in World War 2! You'll love the diabolical deathtraps that the evil Dr. Daka has waiting for his victims! Rating: - Great GiftI bought this as a gift and it came brand new and on time as prescribed by the shipping method I elected Rating: - Come, Robin, let's change clothes behind that tree!Bereft of the budgets and storytelling ingenuity Republic Pictures brought to their chapter plays, Columbia's first stab at DC Comics' Batman franchise is a drab, exceedingly repetitive bore, with J. Carroll Naish's "oriental" villain Prince Tito Daka dreaming up some of the most inane--and easily survivable--traps for heroes Batman (Lewis Wilson) and Robin (Doug Croft), who change clothes so frequently in odd places together (in the backseats of cars, in alleyways, even behind trees!) that it's not ... Read More Rating: - THE MOST INTENSE NOSTALGIAI couldn't resist buying this 2 diskette set because I'm as much a Batman nut as I was when I first saw this serial. Call it morbid curiosity, but I wanted to see how far from the original Bob Kane creation the newer, glossier and far higher tek versions with their psychological pretensions have come. Well, not much, I think. Batman's wrinkly knit cotton tights and high-waisted satin trunks have certainly been replaced by flashier and more realistic physique-dramatizing materials. His new costumes ... Read More Browse for similar items by category:
