Best Batman Ever

Rating: 9/10 (15 June 2005)

Christopher Nolan has created another ground breaking, esoteric film. It's not only Batman Begins...it's like an entire new genre. Dark and deadly,fantastic special effects, super cast, and Best Batmobile Ever! I'm not a big fan of comic books on the big screen, but this is certainly the exception. Christian Bale plays Batman almost as a dual personality.. to great effect. My only negative is that Katie Holmes couldn't quite hold up next to the rest of the cast: just too cutesy and Katie-ish. Gary Oldham had me completely fooled: he is one of my favorite actors, and I didn't recognize him. Definitely best Batman movie yet. I hope that there will be a follow up to this one.
