What good movies used to be like!!

Rating: 10/10 (15 June 2005)

I have been very critical at what Hollywood has been feeding us lately at the theater.
BATMAN BEGINS, begins a revival of what good movies are supposed to be (hopefully), NOT effects driven, but character and STORY driven with realistic effects that complement the story, not TELL it.
Christian Bale plays the Character of Bruce Wayne, putting the other Bruce Wayne's in previous movies to shame. With his chiseled features and exceptional acting, he brings this character to life. (check out Spielberg EMPIRE OF THE SUN)
The supporting cast, Michael, Caine, Liam Neeson, Katie Holmes, Gary Oldman and Rutger Hauer are the icing on this masterful cake. Bringing the movie together like few do anymore.
Go see this movie while it's in the theaters. The effect of seeing it with an audience will prove to make it more exciting! Also, visit a theater with a good sound system. The sound in this movie is great.. If you one of those people who still think movies are the same in any theater, you are mistaken. It's a scientific fact that you're senses rule you while in a movie. Think if you could interact with a movie with your other senses?
This movie combines everything you want in a movie and more, and is suitable for mature children over the age of 10. (you know your kids, if they have seen all of the HARRY POTTER movies and have come out fine, then you're OK..).
It is a loud movie with some scary moments, so use caution with your under 13's.
I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!
