Even though the film might be a bit too cartoony like the comics, Michael Keaton and Jack Nicholson's performances as Batman and The Joker are portrayed well enough to make this film an enjoyable flick.

'Batman' is a movie that's seen many times, and while it certainly is a classic, it does have its flaws, mostly in the central characters.

The movie stars Jack Nicholson as the Joker, and Michael Keaton as the title character. Yes, it is in that order as well. Directed by Tim Burton, the movie has his own unique style with colorful characters and a darker, gloomy tone to avoid the camp-style of the Adam West "Batman" from the 1960s.

The plot revolves around Batman trying to catch the Joker from injecting Gotham city with crime, and exposing the citizens to some Smile gas which incidentally transforms the people into what the Joker has become. The Joker became the crazy maniac that he is after he fell into a pool of acid which disfigures his face to form a permanent grin. Nicholson gives a great performance as the crazy Joker, but having seen the movie recently, it almost seems as if he might be over-acting his role. The loud, maniac laughs and the over-the-top delivery of some of his lines can seem a little problematic.

But this is in no way Nicholson's fault, like I said, he did a fantastic job in the role... Director Tim Burton has been known for animating his characters on screen. Not just with the pale face make-up, but possibly how he tells his actors to deliver their lines. A huge part of the Joker's performance is obviously influenced by Tim Burton's vision.

Michael Keaton is great as Bruce Wayne/Batman, but we don't delve that deep into his character. It has been said many times by other critics that this is Jack Nicholson's movie, and not Keaton's. This is true, we get more of a Joker origin story rather than the title character. This may be due to the fact that the screenplay, written by Sam Hamm and Warren Skaaren were so focused heavily on creating such an iconic villain, that they got lost in translation and forgot who the movie was for in the first place.

Other than this, 'Batman' is a visual treat, a thrilling adaptation of the Caped Crusader of Gotham city, it does feel a little jarring that we get a glimpse of Bruce's childhood/origin story almost half way through the movie, but, when you have fun with what Burton presents you with, it's hard to stay mad.

Overall, if you want a good Batman movie, this will deliver what you might want. The actors' performances outshine the overall story.

I enjoyed this movie. My biggest complaint was the fact that a little too many scenes revolved around The Joker (I know Jack is a big star and all, but the movie is called "Batman" not "The Joker"). But nevertheless, Michael Keaton nails it. It's difficult to imagine the guy who played Beetlejuice could nail a tormented hero like Batman but he does. And don't get me wrong, Nicholson's Joker is fun to watch- he's just a little just a bit over-the-top sometimes. Overall, a good film. Expand

Comme une bandeUne vision très personnelle que ce Batman de Tim Burton qui oscille souvent comme un pendule détraqué entre le loufoque et la folie, entre une sorte de dessin animé caricatural et le kitsch voire le bizarre le plus échevelé. Comme une bande dessinée en somme qui peut se permettre toutes les facéties qui lui passent par la tête... ou presque.

Il en résulte quelque chose de déconcertant mais de résolument original, car Gotham est une ville issue de l'imagination et à nulle autre semblable : architecture gothique, mélange d'ambiance entre années 80 et années 50 et bien entendu l'homme-chauve-souris dont l'avatar Bruce Wayne est étrangement à côté de la plaque, brillamment interprété par Michael Keaton. Un héros donc bien plus humain que les tentatives trop aseptisées de Christopher Nolan.

Quant au Joker, il se taille la part du lion et Jack Nicholson lui donne une épaisseur incomparable faite d'ironie, de drôlerie et de méchanceté gratuite... un cabotin irrécupérable, un "artiste"... et un vrai dingue !

Bien sûr, le personnage de Vicky Vale est important pour l'histoire et une plastique avantageuse est une qualité non négligeable mais Kim Basinger ne cesse de nous navrer d'un bout à l'autre et du début à la fin : cette nana, c'est une souffrance.

Heureusement, la musique tonitruante de Danny Elfman se plie avec un brio stupéfiant au délire ambiant, caricaturant juste ce qu'il faut ses nombreux accents héroïco-héroïques et suit les deux névropathes de près, alternant ironie et romance.

Les répliques d'une manière générale semblent tout droit sorties d'une série B (ou Z ?) comme si elles se parodiaient elles-mêmes : il faut entendre par exemple le couplet que sort le grand Jack Palance à l'autre Jack ou les interventions "télévisées" du Joker...

Malgré sa durée raisonnable, le film souffre encore d'un manque de rythme ici et là et son côté BD est finalement autant un atout qu'un boulet à traîner, car rien n'est vraiment "sérieux" ou réaliste. Un Batman pas croyable mais auquel on adhère pour tous ses excès, loin du balai dans le fion de nombre de super-héros.

In definitive, a great Batman movie and a great Tim Burton movie.

Batman

Burton's taken on the cape crusader of the Gotham city is much more practical and grounded than it claims to be. Don't get it wrong, it has its weak moments and it gets cheesy at times with its cheap gadgets and tacky physical sequences that is clearly off putting, but amidst all these outdated thrills lies a stunning performances, a performance so mesmerizing that it has the potential to carry off the entire movie. There is real ruggedness in here, mano-y-mano as Nicholson calls it, and it's that humane emotion that makes it more gritty and smart. The screenplay is tightly packed that keeps offering twists and turns in this cat and mouse chase until it grows mature and fiddles with character's emotions.

The conversations are pragmatic but the dialogues are cinematic, they demand attention through it especially Nicholson's ideologies that are expressed through monologues and one liners that may or may not crack you up but it surely is palpable to the bold decisions the character makes. It might be gullible, but it also keeps you thoroughly busy in its crime world, from fake advertisement to press news and from cutthroat politics to slick agendas that keeps flipping like a coin, it is immensely enthralling to encounter a good old protagonist-antagonist striking their horns on screen.

Aforementioned, Nicholson is the heartbeat of this case, he is hilarious, intriguing, impressive, at times predictable but not scary as he should have been. Keaton as Batman is over chewing stuff and other supporting cast fades away in front of Nicholson's cynical laugh. Burton needs to up his game whilst pulling off heist and explosions, the fighting sequences could have easily been convincing. Batman works as far as it is a political drama as soon as it starts paying its due to the comic book fans, it dips vigorously down.

Jack Nicholson as the Joker was weird. I didn't like him. I wasn't a big fan of Michael Keaton as Bruce Wayne or Batman. Vicki Vale annoyed the hell out of me. I REALLY did not like the music by Prince. The part where Batman killed the thug really bothered me and yes, I know that Batman has killed people before, but that was a long time ago. And then there was the part where Joker shot down the Batwing with a bullet. A bullet. Really? I liked the music by Danny Elfman and I liked Alfred, but other than that I can't think of other things I liked about this movie. I didn't like the movie, but I didn't dislike it. Expand

Directed by Tim Burton (who became famous at this time thanks to this film and "Edward Scissorhands"), has Michael Keaton (in the title role) and Jack Nicholson (as the villain Joker) among others talented actors. But in this movie the actors weren't well, they simply failed to adapt to the way Tim Burton, a sui generis director, wanted the film.

In fact, in this film (and in the following sequels), Tim Burton has shown that knows nothing about comics, and his love for his personal way he understands cinema is greater than his ability to adapt comic strip for cinema. Merely copying one thing to another?! A film that is comic-strip is not a movie nor a comic-book! The interpretation of the characters is too stylized, the costumes are too unrealistic, the cinematography is too dark and the absurd scenarios are worthy of an Orwellian dystopia. Everything has been thought to refer the public to the comics and strengthen the dystopian character of the city where the story takes place. Thus, as in the comics, Batman is the product of reality where he lives: a good and noble man who uses the violence to brings justice where it fails, turning perversity against the perversity he fights. Still, it's a comic-book Batman, not a cinema Batman, and the film doesn't even tries to bridge's the gap between reality and comics, something that surely would make the film more interesting.

Mr. Burton, who want a comic-book buys it, who is going to the movies normally expects to see something different...

The acting was atrocious, no story, the worst Joker of all time, a rubber Batman costume, a city painted black, and a director that didn't seem to give even one **** about what he was doing and how many people he was hurting.

I heard arguments from people that it was better than the Dark Knight Trilogy created by Christopher Nolan. Um....might be one of the worst incarnations of the Caped Crusader ever made. First off, there is a major problem with michael keaton as batman. This fool was wearing glasses as bruce wayne, had kinda of curly hair and had absolutely no suave of any kind. I was trying to figure out if this guy was supposed to be a grown up peter parker or something instead of bruce wayne. But the bigger problem is Jack Nicholson as the Joker. You friken kidding me? Joker has always bean kinda of lean and skinny. Nicholson had too broad of shoulders to sell as the Joker. Didn't have the voice, didn't have the look, and minimized the craziness of the Joker. And the biggest flaw in the whole movie was that they changed Batmans orgin story of who killed his parents. A common thug kills his parents in the allyway. But not in this movie. Instead it was friken Joker when he was younger. Joker? Bullcrap man. And batman doesn't realize until near the end of the movie. The man who killed my parents was the Joker! Okay Tim Burton. Thanks for killing my fascination with batman. Expand

I saw it when it came out when I was a little kid and hated it. Now that I'm an adult, I thought that perhaps I didn't have the ability to appreciate whatever it was that people loved about this movie, so I watched it again. And I still hate it, LOL. I don't know where to begin, frankly, because every aspect of this movie, from the completely unfaithful representation of the comic book characters to the cringingly awkward dialogue and perplexing moment to moment decisions to the stiff and contrived flow of action, made this one of the biggest wastes of time I've spent in a while. I just finished watching the scene where Bruce Wayne confronts the joker in Vicki Vale's apartment. Oh yeah, you fanboys know what I'm talking about and every one of you knows when you saw that scene even your reaction was, "And Bruce Wayne did that because....?". That reaction pretty much sums up my sentiments for almost every character in every scene in the entire movie. Don't waste your time with this movie. The new Chris Nolan ones are at least compelling and rational, even if they aren't completely adherent to the comic book themes. Stick with them and may this movie be buried for eternity at the bottom of the $5 DVD bin at your local Walmart! Expand
