Good action movie, overall mediocre

Rating: 5/10 (24 September 2008)

Just came back from seeing this movie. For an action flick it's OK I suppose. Good acting, great special effects. Story is... well as one would expect from a Batman movie. Okayish with a fair amount of cheesiness and very shallow at times.
There's nothing really in the story which makes you strain the thing between your ears. Just sit back and be "wowed" by all the bright and wonderful special effects and horrible villains.
That's all fine by me and pretty much what I would expect from a Batman movie. What I honestly don't understand how this movie made it to #3 in the IMDb. Seems very out of place. In my mind, it shouldn't even make the top 100.
