I agree that both these films have stunning performances in them, but the first is far superior. Guess what, your list of big names for the second film is one longer than the first, and it sucked. The more stars you have on screen competing for time, the worse the film. Nicholson was the star of the first film. The biggest movie Keaton had been in before Batman was Beetlejuice, hardly the major star you suggest, and Basinger was a minor character in the film with little screen time (not that she was that big a star anyway: "My Step-mother is an Alien" "Blind Date.") There was one major star in the movie and it worked. They keep adding people to this one and I am worried.
