Hmmm, not quite.
Keaton doesn't do it for me in this film, which is a shame as Jack Nicholson is always worth watching. I even like the way the story is told with minimal CGI. In the end however, I just can't get past Keaton. The end result for me is that this is an average film, and not one I would buy on DVD.
The Joker goes after the city to get back at his ex-boss thus beginning a reign of terror, and of course there is the reporter (Basinger). She is in the city to do a story on Batman.
Not an overly complicated plot/story line. The later Batman movies were better. As stated before the biggest gripe I have with this movie is the lead actor Keaton.
