Batman
ActionAdventureCrimeFantasy126 min
Bruce Wayne is Gotham City’s wealthy heir and secret vigilante, stalking alleyways as Batman after his parents’ murder shaped his life. In Tim Burton’s shadow-drenched take on the character, Michael Keaton keeps Bruce guarded and remote while Jack Nicholson’s Joker turns a mob power struggle into a public spectacle of violence. Kim Basinger threads into the conflict as reporter Vicki Vale, drawn to both Gotham’s masked avenger and the man behind him. As Batman’s war on crime escalates, Bruce has to protect his identity while facing an enemy who treats the city like his stage.
