This movie is the best Batman yet.

Rating: 10/10 (18 June 2005)

It took them five tries, but finally got it right. I'm having a hard time even putting into words how impressed I am with every aspect of this movie.
I will say that the amount of care and consideration that went into crafting this film is apparent and appreciated. I can't think of a single detail that was overlooked in any aspect. From the start of the film, it took great pains to establish the character of Bruce Wayne and what would drive him to such extremes. The discipline shown over any previous television or film version in not allowing the technology or any other aspect to go too far. I can't say how refreshing it was to not see the campiness of Tim Burton's version or the rave-mentality of Joel Schumacker's.
The framing of the shots was beautiful, pulling you into the scene as opposed to simply allowing you to stay at arm's distance like one would view a portrait.
I loved the way the villains were handled, from Scarecrow to the allusions to the Joker. The plot twists included where other directors would have been afraid to have them. It was beautiful I just cannot say enough good things about this movie, and have nothing negative to say.
