Dark Knight Begins

Rating: 10/10 (25 June 2005)

This movie rocked. I was walking out of the theater thinking "I want to buy a ticket and see it again." The new Batman is grittier and darker. Taken right out of The Dark Knight and Batman Year One comics. I highly recommend this movie to any Batman fan, any super hero fan, any movie buff...... you get the idea. Hell, my Marvel comics loving friend who states "DC sucks, Superman and Batman are boring" loved the damn movie. Although she still won't admit that Batman is the greatest hero of all time. I was losing hope that DC would be a contender in the movies after the recent run of Marvel characters in good movies like Men In Black , Xmen and Xmen 2, Spiderman and Spiderman2, the Punisher, and not so good movies like The Hulk, Elektra and Daredevil, Men In Black2, combine that with the extremely poor Catwoman, well it didn't look good. But with this Batman and the setup for the sequel, Constantine and Sin City, plus the news that Superman will return in 2006, it looks like DC is back.
