Allaby, do you have a special affection for Ms. Berry? She's a lovely woman, but her Catwoman performance was nearly comedy.

I enjoyed her performance. It was fun. She is a good actor.

Ranking performances from Batman '89 onwards,

Batman
1. Tie: Pattinson/Bale
2. Keaton
3. Kilmer
4. Affleck
5. Clooney

Catwoman
1. Pfeiffer
2. Tie: Hathaway/Kravitz
3. Berry

However, Julie Newmar is the greatest Catwoman ever. Shame she never got to play her on the big screen.

I find Kilmer gave an extremely underrated rendition of Batman. I say:

1). Bale
2). Kilmer
3). Pattinson
4). Keaton
5). Affleck
6). Clooney

Yeah - I agree. Kilmer is my fave Batman. Christian Bale is all right, but he overacts. Keaton is good at being a tormented soul - but he isn't athletic enough to buy as Batman.

Adam West was a joke. Ben Affleck - I don't know, he may have drinking at the time. He didn't fit.

George Clooney was a joke. Oh and Pattinson, too small. Plus too young looking.

The one guy I felt had pretty much all the elements needed to play Bruce Wayne / Batman - or was closest to it anyway - is Val Kilmer.
