The Dark Knight Triumphs
This Film goes back to the basics, and these basics haven't even been scratched by the previous Batman Films. Batman (1989) was great and really enjoyable but unfortunately wasn't timeless. I give it credit because it got non-Batman Fans to explore into the comic books thereby expanding their horizons on the characters in general. Batman Returns & Batman Forever....well they had their ups and downs. (Batman & Robin I exclude totally).After a complete out-burst of comic book films post 1999 we see the full grand scale cinematic appearences of all the Marvel Comic Book Heroes. Again, lot of ups and downs! The X-Men Series leaves a good concrete impression as does the Blade Series. Spider-man and Spider-man 2 make their mark in a sugary diabetic sort of way but still leave the viewer a very satisfied customer. Daredevil (highly underated) stays true it self beginning to end. Hulk, decent special effects and style The Punisher, Elektra etc etc.... I honestly have no real complaints as to how these comic films have turned out; I consider them enjoyable, each in their own way.Enter 2005, enter Christopher Nolan's Batman Begins. It not only Tops the Marvel Universe Movies, it pretty much knocks all of them out of proportion. Christian Bale makes the finest Batman ever, One of the only superhero actors to play his alter ego with the same amount of enthusiasm as he does the title role. This Movie is altogether about Christian Bale as Batman and the rest of the cast (superbly played) blends into the scenes with him (The Main Character). According to me, this in the only comic film that accomplishes that. A Superior Story (David "The Dude" Goyer), a Brilliant Cast and an extremely talented Director Nolan make this the most memorable superhero movie ever and one of the greatest contributions in 2005.The Dark Knight Triumphs Forever!
