BATMAN TRULY BEGINS
I have been a Batman fan since I was 7 years old (I'm 48 now). Have been collecting comics of Batman & Superman for over 25 years. I have videos of all the versions of Batman (including the 1940's serials). Believe me, when I saw Batman Begins, I almost screamed at the screen: FINALLY SOMEBODY GOT IT RIGHT!!! Christian Bale as Bruce Wayne/Batman was incredible. The only flaw is that Batman should have a real killer instinct. Absolutely no compassion for criminals. The rest of the cast was excellent except in my opinion Katie Holmes. First of all, her character doesn't appear in the comics. Second, she looked way too young for a district attorney. But that's my opinion. Aside from that, the storyline was first rate. You actually believe that this kind of tragedy can happen to anyone. Sometimes it really does. Even though the movie over 2 hours long, to me the time passed way too quickly. I didn't want it to stop. Can't wait for the sequel. I wonder who will play the Joker? When the DVD comes out, you can be sure that I will be the first in line to buy it. If you are a diehard fan, you won't be disappointed.
