Awesome
After leaving the theather, I was one happy guy. Batman was always the coolest and most interesting comic book character to me but all of the big screen adaptations all failed in my opinion. While the first two were above average, they still were not at all like the good comics. The next two were absolutely horrid and now this one is absolutely fantastic. The acting is superb with an exceptional performance by Christian Bale as Batman. He IS the best batman. Morgan Freeman, Michael Caine, and Liam Neeson are superb as usual while Katie Holmes does a nice job. Cilian Murphy is perfect as Scarecrow and the mask he uses is great. The movie is good because it first introduces Batman and his training with Liam Neeson. The lines pronounced by Liam Neeson are fantastic and it shows Batman's great fear of bats. He thus must learn to conquor his fear and return to Gotham where he can fight crime. I loved the new Hummer like Batmobile and when Bale was Batman, it was perfect. The words pronounced, the anger, and the appearance of the awesome costume had me and probably the rest of the world in true glory. If you don't like Batman, you should still watch it as it is one of the year's best films. If you don't know anything about Batman, this movie explains his roots. If you are a true Batman fan, it will be by far one of your favorite movies. If you think that the movie is going to be for children, it's much more dark than the others. This is the Batamn that I've been waiting for and it isn't just good, it's one of the best movies that I've seen.
