What a film!

Rating: 10/10 (29 July 2005)

This film, in my opinion, is absolutely amazing. It captures the realism of the Batman DC comics and accurately brings the essence of the true character of Bruce Wayne and Batman to the screen. The film is an absolute gem with its intelligence, realism, gritty action and is blessed with a stellar cast of top flight actors from Bale, Caine, Freeman, Hauer, Neeson, to Oldman etc etc. Batman was good, Batman Returns okay, Batman Forever very poor and Batman & Robin should never be discussed! Batman Begins for me, tops them all including the Michael Keaton & Jack Nicholson film. And the Batmobile/Bat-tank (AKA The Tumbler) is a beast of a machine!
