Watching Batman again reminded me how much I loved this movie the first time through. Batman/Bruce Wayne (Michael Keaton struggles with his need to fight crime, after the murder of his parents at the hands of Jack Napier/Joker (Jack Nicholson). Napier becomes the Joker after he is dropped into a bat of acid when the crime boss (Jack Palance) sets him up. Batman befriends a photographer, Vicki Vale (Kim Basinger). There relationship develops, but Joker also wants to possess her. Joker does get even with the crime boss, and takes over as the boss. He has developed a poison which makes laugh before they die. He has plans for a city wide gassing at a party. Batman interv ees and sends to balloons filled with gas into the atmosphere. The Joker has a big gun with which he shoots down the Bat plane. This leads to a big fight.
This movie is very good. Nicholson is good as the Joker, and Michael Keaton is also very good.
