MOVIE DECISION GUIDE
CAST & DIRECTOR
Directed by Joel Schumacher. With Val Kilmer, Tommy Lee Jones, Jim Carrey.
WHAT IT'S ABOUT
Batman faces off against two foes: the schizophrenic, horribly scarred former District Attorney Harvey Dent, aka Two-Face, and the Riddler, a disgruntled ex-Wayne Enterprises inventor seeking revenge against his former employer by unleashing his brain-sucking weapon on Gotham City's residents. As the caped crusader also copes with tortured memories of his parents' murder, he has a new romance, with psychologist Chase Meridian.
