Batman Begins should change its name to Batman Disappoints.

Rating: 2/10 (14 June 2005)

I honestly don't remember the last time I was more disappointed in a movie. There is absolutely no action worth mentioning in this entire film. The fight scenes are choppy and VERY VERY poorly done. I feared this might be the case with a rookie action director in charge but I never thought a Batman film would fall this low in terms of fight content. The set up is long and often tedious and the dialogue is surprisingly "New Star Wars" bad. Even the bast costume itself looks off. They were promising us more flexibility and believability with this design but it still looked awkward. Keaton's original still looks better. Bale was remarkably average as Bruce Wayne and his "Batman voice" is near laughable.
It pains me to say but Batman Begins should change its name to Batman Disappoints.
