Amazing

Rating: 9/10 (25 June 2005)

"Batman Begins" is awesome. When I first went to see it on the theater I didn't really thought much of it, because I was disappointed of the 3rd and 4th part of the saga, but when I heard they were starting over, I was very interested in the movie.
What's better in the whole movie is Batman himself. When he is on the suit, you really feel afraid of him, and Christian Bale really made it work extremely right.
The supporting characters are also extremely great. Michael Caine is great as Alfred, he makes a couple of really great jokes and makes a great performance. Katie Holmes playing Rachel Dawes is also pretty cool. She manages a very serious acting and looks very beautiful in all her scenes. Liam Neeson, Morgan Freeman, Rutger Hauer, Ken Watanabe, and everyone does a great job.
The most amazing thing about this movie is that it doesn't really rely on CGI, like other super hero movies. This movie focuses more on the performances and the characters than anything else, although it does have a couple of great action sequences.
The Scarecrow is also great, the effects they used to make it scary are really awesome.
Bottom line is, after the disappointment of Batman Forever and Batman and Robin, this movie makes us all feel better and beg for a sequel.
