Awesome

Rating: 10/10 (18 June 2005)

I wasn't sure because I was never a previous Batman movie fan, but this one was over the top. I'm a huge Christian Bale fan, so maybe that's what made it so awesome for me, but I'm thinking that it would have been great even with someone else in the title role. Christian just made it that much better. Liam Neeson, Michael Caine, Cillian Murphy, Gary Oldman, and even Katie Holmes made this a movie that I may have to spend money to see again. The fact that it tries to explain how Bruce Wayne became Batman and really gets into the center of his pain, makes you totally cheer for him every minute. The special effects were super. There was only one thing I would complain about, and it may be because we sat too close to the screen, but there were times when there was too much going on at one time and you couldn't see anything at all. It was almost enough to give you a headache trying to focus on what was truly happening. Other than that, it is a movie worth seeing again and again. Can't wait for the DVD!
