Best Batman Origin story

Rating: 8/10 (4 December 2019)

This is my favourite batman origin story out of them all. Christopher Nolan did fantastic work in reviving the Batman franchise after a long hiatus from the last dreaded Batman movie, Joel Sheumacher's Batman and Robin. Nolan was able to create such a depthed and detailed story about the psychology of Bruce Wayne and revived the character into a new modern world of realism which reflected the mid 2000s very well at the time.
The worst thing about this movie however is how the action is shot, lots of hard and fast shots with the camera shaking around can hurt your eyes and must've given many Batman moviegoers a headache watching these closely shot combat scenes. However the new Bat-Eqipment and Bat-Gadgets that are used in the movie are interesting and entertaining to watch being used such as batarangs, bat grappling hooks, a high pitched audio device which summons bats to fill the area which disorientates thugs, and of course The Tumbler Batmobile. It's my second favourite Batmobile model behind Tim Burton's 1989 vehicle, what makes this vehicle truly shine however is the incredibly shot and exhilarating chase sequence which has the Tumbler drifting around streets aswell as totaling rooftops.
The casting for the actors was also great with many memorable characters introduced in this movie which we will grow fond of in the upcoming movies, Michael Caine as Alfred and Morgan Freeman as Lucius Fox stand out in particual, as well as the incredible Christian Bale at Bruce Wayne as well as Liam Neeson as Ras al Ghool.
We watch his psychological struggles, his dark past, his mental journey of beginning to fight injustice, physical training and eventual transformation into The Batman. The film is a deep character study into the character aswell as an entertaining Comic Book action film with some glaring camerawork flaws. Overall this film is the best telling of the Batman origin story and we don't need any more. it's one of the best DC movies behind The Dark Knight and is a must watch for any superhero fan. An emotional and sincere origin telling bleeding with Batman atmosphere with a tone of gritty realism
