An excellent rebirth!

Rating: 10/10 (19 June 2005)

This movie was an excellent rebirth of the Batman movie franchise.
This movie answers so many questions from the Batman lore, that I can't imagine anyone not enjoying the genesis of Bruce Wayne, Alfred and Police Officer Gordon.
While dark, and not as campy(quote from wife), I found the story to be well told, well directed and very well acted.
The casting of Michael Caine as Alfred and Morgan Freeman as Mr. Fox was fantastic and both added to this wonderful film.
Liam Neeson's character is very intriguing.
Christian Bale as Batman will in the long run prove to be the best casting of this character and I hope that he reprises this role several more times.
