Batman's triumphant return

Rating: 10/10 (2 July 2006)

Batman begins made a memorable return on screen last summer, because of its strong psychological aspect focused on the Dark Knight's origin. It is very faithful to the famous graphic novel Batman: year One, and that's why it was so popular and exciting, 8 years after the disastrous Batman & Robin, who almost killed the franchise for good. In general, it's a very good movie, although not as good as the 1st Batman, which I like most of all movies of my favorite hero.
Christian Bale was done for Batman's role, and all well-known actors (Gary Oldman, Morgan Freeman, Liam Neeson, etc.) did a great job too. I'm awaiting impatiently its sequel, cause I was very enthralled with Batman begins.
If you like Batman as die-hard fans do, you won't hate it, cause it's more closer to the comic book than ever comparing to Batman & Robin.
