Finally...

Rating: 9/10 (20 June 2005)

Finally, a movie about BATMAN! Not about high-tech gadgetry, or colorful villains. Not about "big name movie stars" or over-sized cod pieces. No over-the-top acting, cheesy catch phrases, or convenient love stories. A movie about Batman. Granted, there are gadgets and villains, but this movie has a plot, and character development. Batman Begins doesn't assume the viewer knows how and why Bruce Wayne becomes the Dark Knight, it shows the viewer how and why. No Joker? No Penguin? And who is it that plays the Scarecrow? The Scarecrow? Doesn't matter, this is a Batman movie, hence the title; Batman Begins. Finally, a well done DC movie. Finally, a movie about Batman.
