Does Batman Forever hold up?

This is a long episode because we welcome a special guest, our close friend Matty from the No Nerds Were Harmed podcast. One of the biggest Batman fans I know so we needed his opinion on one of the most divisive Batman movies of all time. 

June 16, 1995 Val Kilmer dons the Batsuit for the first and only time in his career. His Batman takes on Robin as his partner, falls for Chase Meridian, outsmarts Two Face, and matches wits with The Riddler. Chris O'Donnell, Nicole Kidman, Tommy Lee Jones, and Jim Carrey respectively. Joel Schumacher takes over as director, after Tim Burton leaves the project, and gives us a brand new Gotham and a brand new Caped Crusader. This was the top grossing movie for 1995, but has been dragged through the dirt in the years since. 

Does this movie deserve the vitriol and hatred it receives? Does it deserve the love that others pour upon it? We aren't here to decide if it deserves love or hate, but we are here to answer the question; Does It Hold Up?
