Best Batman Ever

Rating: 9/10 (4 December 2005)

This movie makes the Tim Burton version seem as outdated as the 1960's t.v show. Batman has never been one of my favorite superheros (until now!) and after the last couple horrible sequels I wasn't feeling too pressed to catch this one. Boy was I surprised. Great acting all around and a awesome script by David Goyer who also did the great Blade movies. The biggest surprise to me was how well the female character was written and how good Kattie Holmes was in the role. Bale is also perfect in the role of Bruce Wayne and the costume, car and gadgets he uses were all designed really well. I really hope they can keep this tone and look in the sequel. And I hope they again use villains who haven't been used to death. This Batman would kick Spiderman's sulking butt. I see they're making a new Superman - it might make for a cool sequel to team them up.
