The best 'super-hero' movie ever.

Rating: 10/10 (15 June 2005)

Do you remember when you were a kid and you had a fantastically outrageous dream, then a few years later your dream somehow came true and it was amazing? Well, picture that on a massive scale and you have the EXPERIENCE that is Batman Begins. I'm sorry to say Tim Burton fans, but you no longer have the definitive Batman film. This movie surpasses every super hero movie before it in every way. The cast comes through in phenomenal form, and Christian Bale IS Batman. Special effects are top notch, and the cinematography and Nolan's signature 'flashback storytelling' are both present and do their jobs wonderfully. The city of Gotham is believable, almost REAL, and you really get a sense that this could be how a legend is born.
Bottom Line: I usually hate sequels, with Batman Begins, I can only hope that Nolan remakes the whole franchise.
