good cast keeps it afloat
17 July 2000
What starts off as a really promising film, "Batman Forever" ultimately degenerates into the campy sillyness that marred it's follower, "Batman & Robin". Still, the cast fits perfectly for this movie, and their performances keep it interesting. Val Kilmer is perfect as the stone-face, emotionless Bruce Wayne. Nicole Kidman pulls off the sexy superhero's girlfriend role perfectly. And the villains are great fun to watch: Tommy Lee Jones cackles manically throughout his role as Two-Face, (remincisent of Jack Nicholson as the Joker in "Batman") and looks like he's having the time of his life. Jim Carrey, meanwhile, steals the show as the nutcase Riddler, doing it as only he can.
