Darkest Dark Knight

Rating: 9/10 (23 June 2005)

Forget what you know about Films 1-4. They were a start but in the end those films needed an enema.
BB lives up to the hype for the comic book fan who identify The Batman with his modern day creation/persona post 1986. The film brought images of comic legends Frank Miller, Bill Sienkiewicz and Alex Ross, as well as classic Blade Runner.
The mythology of Bruce Wayne as a grief/angered soul forever running from his demons, transformed and personify his fear to Gotham's evil was absolutely brilliant.
Casting was perfect. Bale is The Batman! Bring them all back, but Katie you've served your purpose.
My one point is that many fight scenes were too fast and POV was too close quarter combat. Distinguishing which combantant is hit/hitting was difficult...and fans want to see The Batman kicking ass.
Kudos to Nolan & Goyer and whole production company. Hey studio sign all these folks up for sequel and give them a raise. Good luck casting Dark Joker, and you're right CN do not even go near Robin.
