Batman: The Motion Picture Anthology [Blu-ray / 4K Ultra HD + Blu-ray (Boxset)]
Collection of four action adventures featuring the DC Comics superhero. In ‘Batman’ (1989) the streets of Gotham City are no longer safe for criminals, who are being picked off by a masked vigilante in a rubber suit – dubbed ‘Batman’ by the press. Reporter Alexander Knox (Robert Wuhl) teams with photographer Vicki Vale (Kim Basinger) in an attempt to discover Batman’s true identity – an investigation which leads them to the door of mysterious millionaire Bruce Wayne (Michael Keaton).
Meanwhile, crime boss Carl Grissom (Jack Palance)’s attempt to rid himself of untrustworthy henchman Jack Napier (Jack Nicholson) does not go according to plan, and after emerging physically and mentally disfigured from a vat of chemicals, Napier reinvents himself as the psychotic Joker. In ‘Batman Returns’ (1992), 33 years after being abandoned as a baby, Oswald Cobblepot (Danny DeVito) returns to Gotham City, bent on revenge, as the Penguin. He begins a warped campaign to become mayor of Gotham, helped by millionaire businessman Max Shreck (Christopher Walken) and undertakes a mission to murder every firstborn son in the city – a plan which will avenge his own beginnings.
Meanwhile, Batman (Keaton) emerges to stop him, but struggles with his dual identity after becoming romantically involved with Shreck’s former secretary Selina Kyle (Michelle Pfeiffer), who takes up her own secret identity as Catwoman to get revenge on Shreck. In ‘Batman Forever’ (1995) former District Attorney Harvey ‘Two-Face’ Dent (Tommy Lee Jones) is terrorising Gotham City when a new villain appears on the scene – The Riddler (Jim Carrey). Together they plot to take over Gotham and discover Batman (Val Kilmer)’s identity, using a device which can probe the human mind.
Meanwhile, the caped crusader is joined in his fight by new sidekick Robin (Chris O’Donnell), whose trapeze-artist family have recently been slain by Two-Face. Finally, in ‘Batman and Robin’ (1997) Batman (George Clooney) and Robin (O’Donnell) have to stop the vengeful Mr Freeze (Arnold Schwarzenegger) from taking over Gotham City. To make matters worse, the venomous Poison Ivy (Uma Thurman) decides to join forces with Freeze.
Luckily for the caped crusader and his rebellious ward, they team up with new partner Batgirl (Alicia Silverstone).
