A Bat and his Toys

Rating: 9/10 (21 June 2005)

Surprisingly good. Kept me leaning the entire movie. The ending was a little convoluted, with the "kissing take-away",and the matching corner smiles, but I bought all the rest. Michael Caine was superb (can't you hear Michael saying "superb"?), as was the rest of the casting (love the Bat's police contact). Batman light is was not, except for a couple of well placed zingers.
I did think the darkness (lighting) of the movie detracted from the IMAX experience. I expected to be pulled or pushed more by IMAX, but the background depth I think affected that perception. So, when the DVD comes out, "I'll look into it...". If I'm wrong, I will send apologizes all around, and that's no joke(r).
Bat's away!
