WooHoo

Rating: 10/10 (17 June 2005)

Best Batman movie ever! With this movie, I believe we can usher in a new era of believable Batman movies, free from camp. The real kudos here belong to David Goyer & Christopher Nolan whose story is by far the best adaptation of a comic book origin story in recent memory with a totally unseen turn. The film also does the best job of explaining in realistic terms how it is that batman and his wonderful toys can exist. The casting is almost flawless with Christian Bale being by far the best Batman AND Bruce Wayne and the supporting cast is equally well suited to their roles. For those of us who were about to swear off Batman movies all together, this film is a bright light of hope for the future of the franchise.
