Batman Begins with a bang!!!

Rating: 10/10 (22 June 2005)

Batman Begins with a bang!!! Exceeded all of my expectations and showed that superhero movies can be dark and interesting again. The trio of Christian Bale, Michael Caine and Morgan Freeman is an excellent foundation to keep this saga continuing for hopefully many many movies. Having dark, sadistic villains is more entertaining than the MTV pop villains like in Batman Forever and Batman and Robin. Gotham also looked more realistic than the previous movies. It was also nice to see a movie that wasn't flooded with special effects. I don't think they could've cast a better Batman than Christian Bale. He is perfect for both Batman and Bruce Wayne. Scarecrow exceeded my expectations and was definitely better than advertised.
