Jim Carrey’s performance as the Riddler helped to elevate a flawed Batman sequel.

Now that Matt Reeves’ The Batman has been released, we have gotten to see his take not only on the Caped Crusader, but on Catwoman, the Penguin, and the Riddler. The latter has received a lot of attention for the changes he has undergone from the character we have known in past interpretations. Gone from the Riddler is the over-the-top brightness. With the long dirty coat and the creepy mask, Paul Dano’s version looks more like a terrorist.

Batman Forever may have been the biggest film of 1995, but it was also a film with a lot of turmoil. Tim Burton, the director of Batman and Batman Returns, decided not to return this time around. His replacement, Joel Schumacher envisioned a more campy vibe that rejected the previous two films darker tone. This turned out to be a near catastrophic choice that led a disagreeing Michael Keaton to drop out.

Carrey’s tendency to stay in character even when not shooting has annoyed many of his co-stars over his career, but that type of method acting is ideal for a character of such emotional intensity. There is no way though for Carrey’s zany, pinball presence to not command the screen. You could even argue that it saves the film. With the misguided approach and the loss of Keaton, Carrey’s star power kept the film from falling apart and being ignored by fans.
