Storyline

- TriviaAccording to Jim Carrey, he did not get along with Tommy Lee Jones, who told Carrey he hated him. Carrey later surmised that it was because at the time, Carrey's blockbuster Dumb and Dumber (1994) was released the same week as Jones's passion project Cobb (1994), financially eviscerating it and moving the film's recognition into obscurity. Carrey explained "(Jones) was a little crusty about this because 'Cobb' was his big swing for the fences," further recounting that during shooting he unintentionally visited Jones in a restaurant and cheerfully approached his table asking "Hey Tommy, how ya doing?" only for Jones to turn pale and begin visibly shaking, "...like he had been thinking of me for 24 hours... The blood just drained from his face in such a way that I realized I had become the face of his pain or something. He started shaking and he got up... like he was in mid-'kill-me' fantasy, he hugged me and said, "I hate you! I really don't like you!' And I said, 'Gee man, what's the problem?' and I pulled up a chair which probably wasn't smart, and he said, 'I cannot sanction your buffoonery!'" The very next day, they filmed the scene in which Riddler forms an alliance with Two-Face in his lair.
- GoofsWhen Batman shows up at Chase's apartment, he comes in through her balcony. It is pouring rain outside, but Batman is totally dry.
- Crazy creditsThe main title "Batman" never actually appears onscreen. It is instead represented by a bat logo with the rest of the title, "Forever," superimposed on top of it.
- Alternate versionsFinally passed uncut in the UK by the BBFC for the two-disc special edition DVD in 2005, with an upgrade from a PG certificate to a 12 certificate.

Featured review
I must admit that I was biased before I'd even seen this movie back in 1995. I was biased because I just didn't expect it to be any good due to the absence of Michael Keaton.
When I did watch it I thought it was okay. Val Kilmer did his best as Bruce Wayne although he just looked a bit too young to play a millionaire playboy-but he did do a good job.
Finally we saw the debut of Robin. I thought Robin's costume was cool-it was updated for the 1990's.
Once again the villains stole the show. Jim Carrey (a truly funny man) made a great Riddler and Tommy Lee Jones made a superb Two Face.
Nicole Kidman made a great love interest for Batman but I would have liked to see more interaction between them in the film.
Whilst I think the first two Batman films were the best, I have no problem in recommending this film to any Batman fan.
