Batman has returned and is better than ever!!!

Rating: 10/10 (7 April 2009)

The 90s Batman films were works of art, but unfortunately went to crap once the third came around. That's usually what happens when we bring in a new director more often than not sad to say, but its true. But with "Batman Begins", Batman is truly reborn, no lie. We have a spectacular cast assembled here, with Christian Bale as the Caped Crusader, Gary Oldman as Jim Gordon and Michael Caine as Alfred, excellent choices. I do consider myself a fan of Batman, being my favorite hero and all (I use to watch all those Batman shows that were great if you ask me), but I am unfamiliar with some of these characters, such as Rachel Dawes (Katie Holmes) and Luicus Fox (Morgan Freeman). Luckily, thanks to Goyer's story, these new characters fit in perfectly. The story of Bruce Wayne is told perfectly and one can really feel his pain and struggle to find his true destiny. I feel the wait is totally worth it and the audiences will enjoy watching Bruce's journey to becoming the dark knight.
Liam Neeson stars as Ras Al Ghual I'm glad to say, and his performance, as usual, is incredibly done to say the least and I love Cillian Murphy as Scarecrow. The villains are just done so well I'm really impressed. Good job Christopher Nolan!!! The story is excellent and makes sure each character, hero and villain alike, plays a crucial role we all enjoy in the dramatic climax.
The new Bat suit is kick-ass, although the 'bat-a-rangs' aren't used as much in this movie. Whatever, because the new Batmobile, or Tumbler actually, is just awesome! The chase sequence is one of the best action scenes I have ever seen and was just jaw-dropped by it. Of course, Batman kicks a lot of ass, just great stuff if you ask me. Gotham City itself sets a dark aura over the film, and we really understand why Batman does what he does.
The music by Hans Zimmer and James Newton Howard is powerful and drives the emotion in the film no doubt. Batman's new theme is dope and the score is often dark and somber. This score matched Batman perfectly.
Batman Begins brings back Batman better than ever!!!
