Astonishing!

Rating: 10/10 (14 June 2005)

I am no fan of the Batman movies, but this one is astonishing. Really, it is just greatly amazing. It has a little feel of the Highlanders movie in a very good way. I love Tim Burton's film, but this "feel" for Batman felt more appropriate to me. By the first minute, I believed that Gotham existed. Not only Gotham, but every gadget in Batman's possession. Even the Batmobile is so much more believable. By the way, there is not Bat-anything in this film other than Batman. The Batcave is there, but it is not named at all. It explains so much and it keeps your attention from beginning to end. You won't be looking for your watch believe me! I love watching movies that doesn't take you for a dummy and gives you contents that make sense. Okay, a guy dressed in a bat costume makes very little sense, but still in this film, it seems that it does make a lot of sense. And frankly, after seeing it, you'll probably wish you could see the following Batman movies with that feel and style. You'll want to see more. So, it is a "must see" if you ask me.
