I have disliked all of the modern BATMAN flicks. I do think that Nicholson was the only good thing about BATMAN. His Joker was inspired. I would have to say that Michael Keaton, one of my all-time favorites, was terribly miscast as Bruce Wayne/Batman. He certainly was scary in Pacific Heights but was unconvincing in the Batman role.
I thought Val Kilmer was the best choice, despite being a bit too young for the role. Too bad the Kilmer effort was wasted on such grade Z fare.

I liked Kilmer also - Lasermeister 05:06:09 03/01/02 (0)
Yes, I also liked the Kilmer Batman the best, even though it was probably a bit of a miscasting. Technically, Clooney was the best casted Batman in terms of physical size and appearance. He turned out to be somewhat underwhelming on the big screen in this role, however.
