Michael Keaton plays a perfect Batman as well as Bruce Wayne and is still one of my favorite Batmans today. Gotham City is a huge Gothic metropolis that's unique style is something only Tim Burton could create. This movie captures the spirit of Batman almost perfectly. Batman has to stop The Joker and save Gotham from the scum that turned him into the hero he is. He also gains an infatuation with Vicki Vale and constantly stalks her. Joker starts to take out the other mob bosses and terrorizes the city with various deadly chemicals mixed with random every day appliances. He emerges with a permanent smile and christens himself as The Joker. On the opposite side of the spectrum a local thug working for Grissom, Jack Napier, encounters the Batman during a heist at a chemical plant falls into the acid.
He becomes the interest of journalist Vicki Vale who is determined to find out who is under the cowl. Enter the caped crusader who starts making a name for himself as Gotham's protector. The city is all but controlled by mob boss Carl Grissom with police Commissioner Gordon and District Attorney Harvey Dent all but powerless to stop him. The plot takes place in the familiar setting of Batman's home town, Gotham City. Then the Dark Knight Returns by Frank Miller and The Killing Joke by Alan Moore came out and were a huge success. But back in the 80's superheroes were still considered to be entertainment mostly for children. Nowadays there's a new superhero movie out every summer.
