Not-so-superhero movies

"Catwoman" (2004)

On the page: Batman’s love-hate relationship with the sexy jewel thief has long made her one of the Caped Crusader’s most popular villains.

How it turned out: After being consigned to development hell for so long that everyone forgot how cool Michelle Pfeiffer was in "Batman Returns," this film proved that putting Halle Berry in a cleavage-friendly cat costume can't save a movie that eliminates every appealing aspect of the original character and condescendingly pits its heroine against an evil cosmetics executive.
