Product: Batman Begins (Two-Disc Deluxe Edition) (2005)
Rating: 3.0
Entertaining, BUT an average action-movie...
...where all's been done and seen before, so where all the "Best movie ever!" or "Fantastic!" comes from, well -personally I have absolutely no idea. It's a good movie, it's mindless fun -fantasy, and that's all. The beginning of the movie reminded me instantly of "Highlander" (the first one of those), the rest of it could have been inspired by a thousand other "dark" action-movies ("The Crow" as an example). So take it easy now, Batman-maniacs. Bale is a good actor, and "suits" his part -Oldman sadly wastes his talent (my favorite actor), the same goes for Freeman and Caine. No disaster, but nothing remembarable here. I couldn't help feeling that the script was missing something. And from the beginning it is in such a hurry, and at the same time this is quite a long movie. Not a good combination. In other words; Highly overrated, but entertaining. And worth seeing. I'd rent before buying though.
