A decent ride when sitting in the front row, which provides gentle tugs, and has a classic design which will forever remain embedded in our hearts.

Just don't sit in the back, it's really nauseating!

Worst Invert Ever! In saying this, I am saying that the other million clones of this ride suck too.

Intense! Best ride is towards the front, especially in the front row.

Not made for fanboys.

Yay for forcefull beema! The ride looks very nice with its yellow paint job and also has a nice front "city park" part of the line.. But when you go inside it was very hot.

This is a classic. I love the feeling I get on this ride, especially when I'm going upside-down during the inversions.

I love all inverts. It ranks on the bottom though when compared to rides like Talon, Raptor, Alpie, Montu, DD, etc.

Respectable ride, but after 13 years of operation, its really showing its age. There have been better and smoother inverters to come out since. After riding this so many times, its no longer worth the wait in line during the summer though. Saying that, I mean for all clones of it too. Sure ride it to keep your coaster count up, but I wouldnt recommend waiting hours in line for it if you already rode it in GA, TX, or CA. Because surprise surprise, its the same thing.

Definitely one of the better Batman the Rides. This one seemed to be a lot faster in the 2006 season than in past seasons. I recommends front row for best rdie.

While not much in the drop department Batman is a classic coaster and the twists and inverts whip by with speed and excitement. Batman is a fun ride but i wouldnt recommend waiting in a long line on a hot dat for it. Your better off hitting Nitro which is right around the corner.

A pretty good invert, short but packs a good lil punch. Alpengeist is the king tho.

I think this ride is of very high quality - being the first B:TR clone I've been on. (And it will be the only one until I can get out of the freaking north east... not saying that the selection around sucks, I just want to experience [i]everything[/i].) Sure, I rank Talon and Montu higher than this one, however, it is still fast, forceful, and pretty smooth. The theming was pretty good for a Six Flags park, and I realized the mechanics could jsut leave their tools for the ride lying around and it would actually help with the theming. The speakers for the gun shots in the queue under the station were in plain sight was my only gripe, other than the rhythmic (and fake, and LOUD) sounding water dripping going up the stairs and on the final stretch of queue before the station annoyed the crap out of me. Otherwise, a great ride! Quite photogenic (as most B&Ms are) and definitely worth going on. The wait wasn't too bad... only about 40 minutes on Columbus Day Weekend.
