Product: Batman Begins (Two-Disc Deluxe Edition) (2005)
Rating: 4.0
For The New Generation
Being of a younger generation, I never saw any of the older Batman films. I think it was a good descision of Nolan's to start from the beginning...It's intriguing, this film, with plenty of good acting and casting. Liam Neeson is, as always, phenomonal. His voice alone is enough to make me shiver with fright.Christian Bale is also very good. While I cannot compare him with any of the previous Batmans, I'll go and guess that he couldn't have been much of a let down. He is a very good actor.Michael Caine positively ROCKS as Alfred.Something that appealed to me, opposing popular superhero films, is the fact the Bruce Wayne doesn't actually have super powers. Not only does this saves us from a corny "scientific" explanation (cosmic radiation, more than likely) for why he can do this or that, but it also helped me connect with the character more.It's a good start for what should be one heck of a series. I can't wait for the sequel.Favorite line: "He's driving a black...tank."
