A Good Place to Begin
Batman begins is a good movie. It answers several questions for those who have not read the DC series (i.e. Why "bats"?, Why are all the bad guys escaped from Arkam?, Where does Bruce Wayne get his cool crime fighting gadgetry?, etc.).The stunts are great. The bat-suit and utility belt are still imaginative. The bat-cape is still too cool! And, I want to park my '70s muscle car and drive this bat mobile (unlike the tiresome cars in the previous 4 flicks)!Bale is great as the Caped one. Caine, Freeman, and Hauer are memorable in supporting action.The movie really takes off after the first 30 minutes of Zen-Judo weirdness. The prison and ninja fights scenes are dull and boring- bordering on silly (as usual with martial arts stuff).Take a Date to this movie, you'll both enjoy it.
