BATMAN BEGINS A Warner Brothers presentation that has been rated 5 out of 5 by Daily Mirror commenting, "You're going to love every minute of it" and also rated 4.5 by The Sun commenting "A bold and brilliant superhero movie". The acclaimed Director Christopher Nolan's comment about the direction of Batman Begins was "From the beginning my interest was in taking a superhero story by treating it in a realistic fashion" where he explores the origins of the legendary Dark Knight. The whole idea in this movie is to fight injustice by any means and to turn fear against those who pray on the fearful. Bruce Wayne (Christian Bale) who turned out to be the Batman was disturbed by the murder of his parents, travelled through this world seeking the means to fight injustice and to turn fear against the ones who put them down on the innocent. In this movie Bruce Wayne's trusted Butler Alfred (Michael Caine) who never gave on Bruce, detective Jim Gordon (Gary Oldman) the only trusted policeman in the city and the collaborator of Bruce, Lucius Fox (Morgan Freeman) helped to become the masked crusader who uses strength, intellect and a array of high tech weaponry to fight the ominous band that pressurize the city who turned out to be called the Batman.
There were many things in the movie that made the movie realistic and fascinating to the audience, which mainly are the flash backs to Bruce Wayne's Personal young life. But of all the change of Villains had a dramatic influence on its popularity where at first everyone considered the mafia leader in Gotham city Don Falcone to be the villain but in the end, the role of the villain was in the hand of Ducard who in the start was the personal trainer of Bruce to overcome the fear which have dominated over Bruce. The return of Bruce Wayne back to Gotham after several years from Asian barracks in the story was interesting where Bruce return as a changed man with an ultimate decision to fight injustice in the Gotham city.
" Bats have frightened me this time my enemy share my dreads" was the words of Bruce Wayne to his trusted butler Alfred because as young Wayne the fear of Bats made Bruce's life to be screwed up. The cave in which Young Bruce had a fall started the fright of bats in Bruce's life but his father used to tell him that "from fall we learn to pick ourselves". Even the last words of his father to him were "not to be afraid". Bruce admit to himself that he was responsible for the death of his parents and took up the challenge to understand the criminal minds in order to fight injustice. Because of his challenge Bruce gave himself to injustice where the Asian police caught him guilty and had him behind bars. A stranger named Ducard who works for Ra's Al Ghul released Bruce from the prison because Bruce was selected by them to fight injustice by destroying Gotham city as Bruce was called by them as the "son of the Gotham city". But Bruce alleged that he was not willing to be an executioner and clamied there were innocent in the Gotham City. This made Bruce to destroy Ra's Al Ghul's League of Shadows foundation but saved Ducard who later became the villain in the movie. The benefit from League of Shadows on Bruce Wayne was that League of Shadows vanished the roots of all fears from Bruce and also thought him how to creep along on little cat feet, picking up many other sophisticated combat tips on his way. Thus bruce returns to Gotham city and unleashes his alter ego Batman to fight injustice.
In the Gotham city bruce wanted to be rewarded for his shares in the company his parents have started and was not looking forward to interfer in the business because his mission was something else than to be involved in the business. In his company he got the help from the science department where Lucius fox his ally who gave Bruce the raw meaterials needed to make costumes of the ultimate Batman. But Bruce not only wanted to fight injustice and to turn fear against those who pray on the fearful but also wanted to prove his lady friend down in the DA's office that " its not the way I am underneath but what I do that defines me". Thus the black mask helped him to be successful in fighting injustice, turning fear against those who prey on the fearful and also proved his lady friend that he was victorious in what defines him.
Thus this 134 minute theatrical thriller was not only triumphant but also was the foremost action movie in 2005. In my opinion it is most thrilling Batman Movie I ever seen in which every fact about fear and injustice are being realistic and also the film accumulates the genres of Action, Thriller, Moderate Horror, Crime and drama. Also towards the end of the movie the Ducard tries to destroy Gotham city with the fear of the people, which shows us that the most gutsy person also have his dreadful enemy which is fear. As the detective Jim Gordon says to batman at their last exchange that " you are wearing a mask jumping through rooftops take this guy off" so that batman is not ending, it was only the beginning and that's why it is called "BATMAN BEGINS".
