Most Overrated Superhero Movie Ever

Rating: 1/10 (1 October 2006)

Wow this movie definitely does not deserve the distinction of being in the top 250 movies of all time that's for sure. It only really owes its popularity to the countless obsessive comic book fanboys who have managed to give an unusually high rating to this film considering the fact its the same fanboys who gave it votes of 10 over and over to fix it so the movie got an 8.4 rating. In reality this movie is more like a 7.0 and that would probably be being generous. There are too many flaws to even try to start listing here in one review. I'll just touch on the key ones. Katie Holmes - oh she is so out of place in this film it's painful. Christian Bale - not a terrible Batman but not the right fit for the character. I think he's good looks actually works against him in this role because Batman/Bruce Wayne ain't pretty. He's gritty and an every man. Morgan Freeman - great supporting actor but his role in this him is just insulting and bordering on an Uncle Tom. I'm African-American and felt this was a slap in the face. Last but in no way least, Christopher Nolan - bit off far far more than a director with minimal experience under his belt can chew. Maybe the sequel won't be as flawed but I'm not holding my breath.
