Mechanically Sound

Rating: 5/10 (7 January 2020)

The story structure in Batman Begins is excellent. My one gripe is that the origin sequences, at the beginning, feel too rushed. There are nice beats within, but so much is left untapped. It could have been it's own film.
The dialogue is too wooden and in concert with the backing music often gives off a soap opera feel. The characters never feel fleshed out from an acting standpoint.
Batman Begins has the best story structure of the three Christopher Nolan films, but it lacks memorable characters and emanates low energy.
