Adam West's Swansong
For those of a certain age, there is but one true Batman and that is Adam West. 'Batman vs. Two-Face is the second of two animated features in which Adam West reprises his iconic dual role of Batman/Bruce Wayne, along with Burt Ward as Robin and Julie Newmar as Catwoman. All are drawn to appear as they did in in the iconic TV 1960s TV series. It also features William Shatner voicing the primary villain, Harvey Dent (aka Two-Face). As a nice touch, the character is also drawn to resemble Shatner as he appeared in the mid-'60s. Ironically, this character never appeared in that TV show and that is where the premise falls apart a little bit. The story line is a little darker and does not evoke the charming campy humor of the original series, which its predecessor, 'Return of the Caped Crusaders' did much more effectively. In many ways, its tone was moe consistent with 'Batman, The Animated Series'. Nonetheless, this DVD deserves a place in any Bat Fan's collection, if for no other reason than it is Adam West's final performance. He completed recording his dialogue shortly before he succumbed to leukemia in June 2017. The film is dedicated to his memory.
