Product: Batman Begins (Two-Disc Deluxe Edition) (2005)
Rating: 5.0
A THRILLING, ENGAGING LOOK AT THE BIRTH OF A LEGEND!
Eight years after the disaster that was "Batman and Robin," the Caped Crusader returned to the silver screen in Christopher Nolan's epic "Batman Begins." And the wait was definitely worth it. Nolan's film is, simply put, the best in the series. Christian Bale captures the true essence of the character, playing him neither too weak (like Tobey Maguire in the "Spider-Man" films) or too strong, but somewhere in between, and perfectly. The great supporting cast, fantastic action sequences and dark tone converge to create the best superhero film since the original "Superman." The 2-Disc Deluxe Edition comes with amazing extras and a fascinating 72-page comic book with three stories that inspired the movie. Fans of the comic books or previous films will not be disappointed in "Batman Begins."Movie/DVD Grade: A+
