Hi! I'll be reviewing this article over the next few days. My initial impression is positive, but I'll need to read the whole article before passing or failing it. -Drilnoth (talk) 15:00, 25 November 2008 (UTC)

I've started reviewing it and have noticed a few issues with the plot summary:

1. The sentence, "That night, a charity event is held by Wayne Enterprises with special guests, Batman and Robin and she decides to use her abilities to seduce Batman and Robin." really needs some work.
   
2. Although the first paragraph of description is fine, paragraphs 2 and 3 sound really choppy; there's a lot of short sentences that sound kind of stilted. Rewriting those paragraphs, or just finding places were sentences could be combined, would be great.

The following quotation in the "Cast" section has a reference, but the quotation itself is not actually located at the referenced website article: "Schumacher cast Clooney in the role because he felt the actor "could step away from a more brooding, self-centered Batman, like Michael Keaton or Val Kilmer, and be more more, accessible and fun."". After reading through the cited source, the quotation looks like it might actually be paraphrasing, so it should be rewritten a bit. -Drilnoth (talk) 15:23, 25 November 2008 (UTC)

I've finished my review and have put the article on hold for the improvement discussed above. -Drilnoth (talk) 15:45, 25 November 2008 (UTC)
