Finally, someone set the right way for Batman

Rating: 8/10 (22 July 2005)

Actually, I've quite liked the two Burton's movies about Batman (what I think about Schumacher's movies, you don't want to hear), but I was still feeling that they were missing that something, something that makes you want to see it second time. I thought that X2 was the best comic book adaptation ever, but it can't compete with Batman Begins. Everything is just perfect, the movie looks great, Gotham City finally looks like city and not like scene of a theater and cast, that's just another chapter. A spectrum of various characters, Morgan Freeman as Batman's "Q" just rocks, Liam Neeson shows that no character is a problem for him and hey, what all you people have against Katie Holmes? She couldn't play Joey forever, she isn't that bad as everybody says. The only thing I miss was a villain that makes you wanna scream: "Batman, go kick his ass!" I just hope that everything that Chris Nolan proved with this movie teaches people from WB to treat comics characters with respect.
