Not your average superhero movie

Rating: 8/10 (23 January 2008)

I like Spiderman. Superman is good. I didn't particularly like Daredevil. Superhero movies are usually just fun. Fun. Not usually great movies, but fun. Well, Batman Begins defies all expectations. I have never really watched any other Batman movies, or read the comics, so you could say that my opinion doesn't really count, because I have no idea of the past representations of Batman. Well, I'm sure that all of those are good movies, but I am also sure that this one is better. Christian Bale is amazing, dark and brooding. The whole movie is a surprise, what with all the flashbacks to why he became batman. The acting is very good, and I really did enjoy this movie.
