Gotham City. Crime boss Carl Grissom (Jack Palance) effectively runs the town but there's a new crime fighter in town - Batman (Michael Keaton). Grissom's right-hand man is Jack Napier (Jack Nicholson), a brutal man who is not entirely sane... After falling out between the two Grissom has Napier set up with the Police and Napier falls to his apparent death in a vat of chemicals. However, he soon reappears as The Joker and starts a reign of terror in Gotham City. Meanwhile, reporter Vicki Vale (Kim Basinger) is in the city to do an article on Batman. She soon starts a relationship with Batman's everyday persona, billionaire Bruce Wayne.

I'm pretty sure the trailer is unfinished. That middle part of the trailer seemed to be priming for music playing...but then nothing. - @Tuesday, September 25, 2018 6:58 PM

i think this movie started the "dark theme" for batman. Before this, batman is literally a clown in the comics. - @Saturday, September 15, 2018 7:19 AM

As dated as this is, it’s STILL, hands down, the best Batman movie before the Christian Bale era.. - @Tuesday, September 11, 2018 11:41 PM

One of the coolest Batman movie of that time. I have seen it on CD and TV. Joker was the funniest character. Anyway don't about others, but I watched trailers for the actors, plot and stories. - @Monday, September 10, 2018 9:02 AM

Burton's Batman was a assassin. Batfleck It is a care bear, compared to him. - @Monday, September 10, 2018 3:02 AM

wow.... that was one of the worst cut n pasted trailers i have ever seen for a big hollywood movie as far as technique and style.... but it does show u enough to get u interested in the movie... still.... i could have cut this lol - @Monday, September 10, 2018 1:10 AM

Great film, I still like The Dark Knight much more. Heath is my favorite live action Joker. Nicholson was really good too of course, but not psychotic enough. Even though Bale’s raspy voice is a bit dumb, his portrayal of Bruce Wayne is still the best in my opinion. - @Sunday, September 9, 2018 6:48 PM

I was 4 when Batman came out. I thought it was the greatest superhero movie ever made. ....Until Mavel Studios came along and made Iron Man, Captain America and The Avengers. at that time I had fully evolved into a Marvel mega fan. As DC was pumping out shit super hero movies(with the exception of the dark knight). - @Sunday, September 9, 2018 2:22 PM

This and Batman Returns influenced so much of the comic book and movie I’ve worked on. I so wish Warner Bros kept them for the 3rd movie :) - @Sunday, September 9, 2018 10:13 AM

Thing is, 'gritty' superhero movies are so commonplace now. Back then, this was a really awesome event. So much so that it deserved a viewing at London's Leicester Square, for me! - @Saturday, September 8, 2018 7:25 PM
