"Batman" (1989) directed by Tim Burton is a classic superhero film that introduces the audience to the Dark Knight of Gotham City as he confronts his arch-nemesis, the Joker. The movie is known for its dark, moody tone, reflective of the comic's style, and introduces themes of justice, vengeance, and morality. Michael Keaton stars as Bruce Wayne/Batman, while Jack Nicholson delivers a memorable performance as the Joker—a psychopathic villain who thrives on chaos and criminal activities. The film features elements of action and adventure, and its portrayal of the battle between good and evil aligns with some biblical themes, though it is primarily secular in nature.
