Batman: The Motion Picture Anthology 1989-1997

Titles Comprise:

Batman: After a young boy witnesses his parents' murder on the streets of Gotham City, he grows up to become Batman, a mysterious figure in the eyes of Gotham's citizens, who takes crime-fighting into his own hands. He first emerges out of the shadows when the Joker appears - a horribly disfigured individual who is out for revenge on his former employer and generally likes to have a good time, but the identity of the "bat" is unknown. Perhaps millionaire Bruce Wayne and photographer Vicki Vale have a good chance of finding out?

Batman Returns: Gotham City faces two monstrous criminal menaces: the bizarre, sinister Penguin and the slinky, mysterious Catwoman. Can Batman battle two formidable foes at once? Like the Academy Award winning 1989 original, Batman Returns is directed by movie-making wizard Tim Burton. And like the first blockbuster, it's a dazzling adventure that leaves you breathless.

Batman Forever: Riddle me this; riddle me that, you'll find adventure on the wings of a bat! Brace for excitement as Val Kilmer (Batman), Tommy Lee Jones (Two-Face), Jim Carrey (The Riddler), Nicole Kidman (Dr. Chase Meridian) and Chris O'Donnell (Robin) star in the third spectacular film. Joel Schumacher directs and Tim Burton co-produces this thrill-ride of a movie that thunders along on Batmobile, Batwing, Batboat, Batsub and bold heroics. Hang on!

Batman & Robin: Chills and thrills: will Gotham City be put on ice? George Clooney is Batman as the dark knight battles his greatest threat yet: Cold-hearted Mr. Freeze (Arnold Schwarzenegger) and venomous Poison Ivy (Uma Thurman). New very special effects include a wild sky-surfing sequence and Freeze's outrageous ice-blasting arsenal. It's state-of-the-art excitement from our Batfamily to yours!

Bruce Wayne is a rich playboy by day, masked vigilante by night. His vast fortune allows him to maintain his dual identity, whilst secretly developing an elaborate array of high-tech vehicles and gadgets which he employs in his never-ending quest to save Gotham City from its criminal elements. This collection sees the 'Caped Crusader' facing off against Jack Nicholson's deranged Joker in the original BATMAN film. He is pitted against a trio of villains in BATMAN RETURNS – the freakish Penguin, deadly seductress Catwoman, and power-hungry capitalist Max Schreck. In BATMAN FOREVER, Gotham City is once again under siege, this time from the mind-controlling Riddler and his diabolical associate Harvey Two-Face. Things get environmental in the fourth instalment, BATMAN AND ROBIN, when our hero returns to battle the abominable Mr Freeze and green-thumbed Poison Ivy. Throughout the series, Batman is aided and abetted by his trusty old butler Albert, enthusiastic sidekick Robin, and Alfred's spirited niece (who assumes the identity of Batgirl), as well as his allies down at the police department.
