Wow

Rating: 10/10 (5 July 2005)

Having never seen a Batman film before - ever, i was drawn in by the mass publicity and media frenzy plus my friends all wanted to go.
After the first 2 minutes i was absolutely hooked...this was a big budget 'arty' film - quite a paradox in the Hollywood industry. The way Nolan puts the whole Batman franchise into the real world had me engrossed. I absolutely loved it.
I'm not going into a long detailed review as many people have different opinions but the direction, acting and everything was spot on - the only thing i have a complaint about is Katie Holmes, i don't know if its just me keeping the image of 'Joey' from Dawson's creek but I just didn't think it was a role which suited her. Scarlett Johanssen would have been a much better choice for this role.
10/10 Well done Chris Nolan a film which will go down in history!
