Redemption

Rating: 10/10 (7 July 2006)

Sadly, I've seen all the Batman films. Up until now, they were pretty much a waste of my precious time on this Earth. Then I saw "Batman Begins" and my jaw hit the floor.
Or as I call it, "Batman: the Apology" or "Batman Redeemed." This is the Batman that more than makes up for all the others. In fact, this is the only Batman movie you need to see. And you NEED to see it! This wasn't yet another director pasting the Batman name on their own twisted version of the genre - this is the de facto Batman, as he was, as he is, so accurately portrayed that DC comics themselves put their own mark of approval on it. You can tell that many scenes, images, and ideas were pulled directly from the DC archives, and even the most hardcore original comic fan would be hard pressed to find anything wrong with this film.
As a rule, movies based of comic book characters usually suck. Batman Begins is the exception to that rule. If you never see any other Batman movie (and for your own sake, don't), see this one. You won't regret it.
