10 Most Disappointing Villains In Movie History

3. The Riddler - Batman Forever

So the Riddler, as you're no doubt aware, is one of the most iconic of all Batman villains - he's one bad guy who forces Batman to use his brain, given that he's into puzzles, and, well, riddles. There are some fans out there who like Carrey's interpretation, but I can't stand it: the way that the otherwise talented comic plays the Riddler emphasises, for me, everything bad about Jim Carrey, the '90s, and "funniness" in general. And I say that still convinced that Carrey could have played this differently and made it work. It's a devastating and cringe-worthy performance, though - incredibly dated and awkward to watch in retrospect.
