    This could have been handled so much better. Considering that our yellow-clad, square-jawed hero released his movie in 1990 after the wild success of the Batman film a year prior, you'd think that Dick would take a page out of Bruce Wayne's book on the video game front as well.

    Vote Dick Tracy 2012: it's the smart choice.
