1. The film feels like a proper continuation of the second film, whilst updating the setting to the present day.

==Why It's Better Than
Batman

***Batman*** is a 1989 film directed by Tim Burton and written by Sam Hamm. It stars Michael Keaton as Bruce Wayne/Batman, Jack Nicholson as Jack Napier/The Joker, Michael Gough as Alfred Pennyworth, and Kim Basinger as Vicki Vale. The film was released by Warner Bros. on June 23, 1989, in the United States.

## Plot

It was almost time for the 200th-anniversary bicentennial festival of Gotham City and for this special day, the city's mayor wants the city safe from all the criminals who run rampant in the streets. It's in this scenario that rumors about a masked vigilante dressed in a bat costume begin to be heard, leading reporters Vicki Vale and Alexander Knox to investigate this mysterious character who seems to be seriously interested in cleaning up the city by himself.

Bruce Wayne, "Batman"'s alter-ego hosts a fundraiser in Wayne Manor and it is on this occasion that he meets Vicki Vale for the first time falling in love with her. Prior to these events, the notorious mob boss Carl Grissom discovers an affair between his second-in-command Jack Napier and his woman Alice therefore he decides to have his top man killed by the police by setting him up in a raid at Ace Chemicals with the aid of a corrupt policeman.

Batman arrives at the place and during a fight with Jack Napier, the latter accidentally falls in a chemical vat full of acid and is presumed dead both by Batman and Gotham City's Police Commissioner Gordon.

Unbeknownst to them, Jack Napier has survived and what should have been a lethal incident, but his appearance is grotesquely disfigured: his face now resembles the one of a clown due to completely white skin, green hair and a permanent unsettling grin on his now scarlet red lips leading him to call himself "The Joker".

Using his new persona and now completely insane, Jack Napier exacts his revenge on his former boss and manages to take over his criminal empire. Using this new resource, the Joker begins terrorizing Gotham's population with a lethal venom injected in hygiene products but this plan is promptly countered by Batman.

The Joker begins investigating his enemy and casually discovers a photograph of Vicki Vale, eventually falling in love with her. Batman's battle against the evil madman has now become personal but it will get even worse when he'll find out something about his nemesis that will make the old but never forgotten ache of the murder of his parents resurface and even more difficult when the Joker hosts the bicentennial festival and is backed up by the greed of the people that Batman is trying so hard to protect.

## Why It's Better Than *Batman Forever* and *Batman & Robin*

1. It has a better tone, with darker themes that fitted the Batman film very well.
2. Michael Keaton did a great job as Bruce Wayne/Batman.
3. Better acting from Michael Keaton and Jack Nicholson.
4. Jack Nicholson is also great as the Joker and he did an amazing job portraying the character due to his blend of spiritedness and insanity.
