The best of the bat
I went and saw this movie with high expectations because of all the hype and I have to say that I was NOT dissapointed. It held it's own as the best batman movie to date. Christian Bale was the PERFECT batman, well, moreso the PERFECT Bruce Wayne and that is precisly the point of the movie. This movie is more about Brce Wayne than batman and that is half the reason why my kid brother wasn't as impressed. The action is reserved for the end, the guts of the movie is more Bruce growing up, realizing his destiny and coming to grips with the murder of his parents. Besides Bale Cillian Murphy and Liam Neison do AMAZING jobs with what little screen time they are allotted and Katie Holmes, while not spectacular is still sweet and charming. The storyline is great, the plot is worthy of the title and this movie hopfully will catapult with an amazing series of SERIOUS and DARK movies that do the batman justice, the way he was always meant to be portrayed.
