HUGE improvement over "Crapman and Robin"

Rating: 8/10 (30 August 2014)

(78%) A strong reboot of a fallen superhero series that really needed a large sidestep away from the god-awful let-down "Batman and Robin" disaster. Begins is one of the finest made superhero flicks to date, with fantastic scope and a lot more depth than any up to that point. The cast is strong, the writing is more than good enough, and there's some great action in there too. Maybe the only real issue is that it's not as memorable as 89 Batman as every time I see it (3 times now) it feels like the first time, as nothing really resonates in my mind for some reason. It's still one of the best Batman films, just for me it's not the best.
