Giminy Willickers, Batman! They've returned your credibility as a serious live action superhero!

Rating: 8/10 (27 October 2019)

Impressive and formbidable retread of familair comic ground, compulsively not like the Adam West era.
Sometimes falling short of being quite as profound as it clearly thinks it is, I wonder if we could use it being about a half hour shorter but of course the Joker steals the show in a terrifying yet hilarious fashion (I didn't think of Mark Hamill once), the whole is very dark. I mean literally.
If you're not in the mood for it, it can be quite a slog but well worth seeing at least once.
I've never seen Batman begins and I don't think I lost anything for it.
