Long time readers of these pages have seen it documented many, many times .
. . Cranky hasn't had many good things to say about the movies made by
director Joel Schumacher over the last four or five years. So I don't know
what it means when the man turns out a film that, at its most basic levels
of logical construction and continuity, is well made. That is not to say I
liked the film, whose subject matter is particularly distasteful. I did not
not like it, so I guess that means JS has broken his losing streak on these
boards.
