Watching "batman" today makes me think that it's a pretty ridiculous story after all and even more so are most of the performances and scenes, especially around the joker.. I realize there are some cult ingredients in it, for example some resemblances to "citizen cane", maybe the awful 80ies-Prince-music, the 80ies computers and monitors that are shown - but all in all, I'm sorry, 90ies' "Matrix" is just more my kind of film. What seems strange as well is that everything seems to be filmed in the studio, nothing on the street, and all the elements of the plot seem just loosely connected. Still it is interesting to watch, but more for historical reasons but for any suspense which is really not coming up.
