This movie brought my faith back in Hollywood

Rating: 10/10 (15 June 2005)

Let's see I'm not sure where to start.
1. I was never a fan of comics...I'm a full time, college educated professional, but enjoy watching movies like shawshank, the tobacco movie (with russell crowe), the red violin, hotel rwanda... 2. I initially thought a superhero movie would be for kids, and I got forced to seeing this movie and a. I was wrong about the kids part b. boy was I wrong and learn my lesson about prejudging and taking things at face value...
I would recommend that you go see this movie without reading anything about it. Don't let anything ruin the movie, don't let people build it up, just go see it as if you were a little kid. I thought clapping was ridiculous in a movie theater, but it naturally came to me and I started clapping as well as everyone else around me that probably thought the same way I did...
The screenplay was so poetic, and despite batman being a comic, you can really dig down deep, it strikes to the core of what humanity stands for:

facing your fears

getting up when you are down

not giving up

it's what you do, and not who you are is what makes you who you really are.

The movie does not insult your intelligence either, it's harder to point your finger at something and say, oh I wonder how that would happen in real life, and granted that it's an action movie, that's extremely impressive to me.
so go enjoy the movie...i don't want to say too much.
