Batman ( Val Kilmer) arrives at the scene, consulting with Dr. The movie opens as Two-Face, the former DA Harvey Dent ( Tommy Lee Jones), holds a hostage in a bank vault. He no longer is the one to fear.Batman Forever Title. Ultimately the part that makes me love Carrey's Riddler is his terrifying scream at the end, when Batman closes in on him, starts around the 4:30 mark That scream is pure insanity broken. And both are beyond helpless and have their own frustrated cry out at Batman, "what makes you so hard to kill? Why are you unable to die?". Both feel threatened by Batman, they feel all it takes to kill a man is the right weapon, the right plan, the right knowledge. The two lines each villian say are perfect Two-Face, before he shoots the grenade launcher at Batman, "Why won't you just DIE?", and Riddler, lying defeated, weakly cries "Why can't I KILL YOU?". My two favorite scenes in the whole movie are Two-Face trying to kill Batman in the subway and Batman capturing Riddler. The flashback scenes and when he steps into the Nygma brainscan room at the party are great ("tell me your deepest, darkest secrets"). Blame the writers for his cheesy lines about drive-thrus and smirking after he kisses Nicole Kidman. He was moody, quiet and didn't say much most of the time. Val Kilmer was not the worst Batman he could've played. also kind of a "why do you have all those" moments) when he talks in his normal, Harvey Dent calm voice show that he has the two sided thing happening every now and then. Those instances (like when Batman throws all the coins at him at the end. Two Face was a little over the top, but his violent demeanor was accurate in how he just hated everybody after his accident and wanted to kill. These are all true aspects of the character and Carrey upped the ante. He wanted attention, he wanted Bruce Wayne and Batman both to beg at his knees, he wanted to be the smartest man in the world.

Jim Carrey played the role of Edward Nygma, a character as insane as the Joker in some aspects, to a very insane level.

(To get this out of the way, when the Riddler is destroying the Batcave, although a great idea, is carried out too slapsticky and Carrey went too far in trying for laughs.
