A realistic view to the dark knight

Rating: 10/10 (8 January 2014)

This is an excellent movie, even for people who doesn't like superhero movies. On comics Batman is trained on various forms of martial arts, but the movie concentrate on Ninjutsu. That makes a lot of sense, once the ninja are highly trained fighters. The production tries to explain the use of armor and equipment in a very effective way, what remembers me the gadgets always present on 007 movies. Other aspect is the Bat element and black uniform, related to the human fear. Christian Bale is the best Bruce Wayne so far. He's a great actor, and brings a good tension to the character. I'm not a big fan of Ra's Al Ghul, but the enemy history on comics are barely related on the movie. Liam Neeson is a great actor, doing a great job as a "jedi master", but I couldn't see him as a great enemy. This is a good beginning movie, but put the hero a bit distant from his origins: the detective.
