At the Liberty:The Batman

DAYTON—The Batman is playing at the Liberty for two weeks.Bruce Wayne/Batman (Robert Pattinson), after two years of stalking the streets, has been led deep into the shadows of Gotham City, striking fear into the hearts of criminals. Amongst the city’s corrupt network of officials and high‐profile figures, the vigilante Batman, with only a few trusted allies—Alfred Pennyworth (Andy Serkis), Lt. James Gordon (Jeffrey Wright), has established himself as the sole embodiment of vengeance amongst his fellow citizens. When a killer targets Gotham’s elite with a series of sadistic machinations, a trail of cryptic clues sends the World’s Greatest Detective on an investigation into the underworld, where he encounters such characters as Selina Kyle aka Catwoman (Zoe Kravitz), Oswald Cobblepot aka the Penguin (Collin Farrell), Carmine Falcone (John Turturro), and Edward Nashton aka the Riddler (Paul Dano). As the evidence begins to lead closer to home and the scale of the perpetrator’s plans becomes clear, Batman must forge new relationships, unmask the culprit, and bring justice to the abuse of power and corruption that has long plagued Gotham City.
