I want my money back!!!!1

Rating: 5/10 (21 July 2008)

I will keep this short because my point is easy to get. I think the movie was very over hyped and lacked the creativity Tim Burton brought to the original. The location for the movie did not capture the gritty mystic feel Gotham City has. I mean that is a big part of the movie, isn't it? So that threw me off from the get go and I never really adjusted to it after that. It was almost like I was waiting to see Spider Man come swinging through from building to building The highlight was The Joker as I thought, Heath was excellent but that is pretty much where the excellence stopped for me. Also the Joker's background history was non-existent, he kind of just came out of no where with no explanation?? Bale is a horrible Batman and barely an okay Bruce Wayne. The missing bat cave & Wayne Manor were huge negatives too... In addition to what the movie missed it was very drawn out a much longer than it needed to be.
