Product: Batman Begins (Two-Disc Deluxe Edition) (2005)
Rating: 5.0
It's worth the extra few bucks to see it @ an IMAX theater
I agree with all the positive reviews of this entertaining and well-acted movie. The previous Batman movies were lukewarm whereas Batman Begins is BURNING HOT! There's no comparison.I am very glad I saw Batman Begins at the IMAX. The sound was big and rich, the images crystal clear. I did hear a little boy cry for a minute at the very beginning because the colossal screen and full sounds are a new experience for those of us who do most of our viewing in front of a comparatively much smaller TV screen. And children if not adults do fear most things new. (by the by, FEAR is the main subject of this enjoyable movie) If you're unusually sensitive to booming sounds, be advised that the sound is louder but not more offensive than most standard movie theaters. That's one of my big gripes of the standard movie theaters, whenever the volume increased, the amplifiers could not handle the extra noise volume and all I could focus on was the annoying tinny noise & the vibrating speakers. It was a relief to actually watch a movie and not be distracted by noticing something wrong with either the theater or the movie itself.The best way to experience this ab-fab movie is @ the IMAX. As soon as the movie ended, most people could not help but clap. Rare for a movie relesed these days. It is an all-over physical/mental experince not to be missed.p.s. when I got home from the IMAX last night, I turned the TV on and the Batman Begins movie commercial was on! I was amazed at how much of the experience was sacrificed on the reduced images. There's no comparison.
