The movie opens with Batman stopping a hostage situation in a bank caused by Two-Face, who had once been Gotham City District Attorney Harvey Dent until a mobster threw acid in his face, scarring him and creating a split personality. Two-Face escapes after defacing Gotham's Statue of Liberty. Later on, Edward Nigma, a researcher at Wayne Enterprises, develops a device to beam television directly to a person's brain; Bruce Wayne rejects the invention, noting that it "raises too many questions", and Edward resigns from his position.

After meeting psychiatrist Dr. Chase Meridian, Bruce invites her to a charity circus event. While there, Two-Face and his henchmen storm the event in an attempt to discover Batman's secret identity, in the process killing a family of acrobats, The Flying Graysons. The youngest member, Dick, survives and throws Two-Face's bomb into the river. Bruce assumes responsibility for Dick and allows him to stay at Wayne Manor. Dick declares his intention to kill Two-Face and avenge his family's murder, and when he discovers Bruce's secret identity as Batman, he insists on becoming his sidekick, "Robin".

Meanwhile, Edward has become obsessed with Bruce, and he begins to leave riddles for him. He decides to become a criminal known as "The Riddler" and become allies with Two-Face. Using his invention that Bruce had rejected earlier, Edward could read and control people's minds, and steal their intelligence quotient. At a business party, Edward discovers Bruce's secret identity. Two-Face then attacks the party and nearly kills Batman, but Robin comes just in time to save his life. However, Two-Face and The Riddler later converge into Wayne Manor. The Riddler enters The Batcave and destroys most of the equipment, and he and Two-Face then kidnap Chase. They also leave Bruce another riddle.

After solving the last riddle, Batman and Robin locate The Riddler's Lair, where both are separated upon reaching the island. Robin then encounters Two-Face and manages to beat him to the ground; Two-Face clings on for life, and realizing that he cannot kill him, Robin helps the villain back up. Two-Face gets the upper hand, and captures Robin. Meanwhile, Batman makes his way into the Riddler's lair and meets The Riddler himself; he reveals Robin and Chase as hostages, and gives Batman a choice of saving one hostage, but not the other. Batman finds a way to save both hostages and destroy the brainwave-collecting device, driving The Riddler insane in the process. During the battle, Two-Face falls to his death after Batman throws a box full of coins at Two-Face's coin in mid-flip. The Riddler is finally sent to Arkham Asylum, and Chase is asked to consult on his case. The Riddler offers to reveal Batman's true identity to her — raving nonsensically that he is Batman. Chase then meets Bruce Wayne outside and tells him his secret is safe.
