Batman Begins Review!, ^ = !! Options

[sulfur]

Yes I've seen it! And now heres is my review of Batman Begins!

Batman Begins has nothing at all to do with the other 4 batmans films, although i do like Batman returns. Christopher Nolan made this film just blow all the other ones away. Nolan has done Memento, which is on my top 5 movies of all times. I loved how there was no bulky man crouch (Batman forever) or no nipples (batman& robin)
Very good part, they explain how they built the batcave and how they obtained the parts to do it. the batmobile just owns the old one. Christian Bale i think did the batman job better than all the others, He fit the part of bruce wayne and did a very good batman. [ Before Christian Bale was cast as Batman, many other actors were considered for the role including Guy Pearce, Ashton Kutcher, David Boreanaz, John Cusack, David Duchovny and newcomer Hugh Dancy. ( from imdb trivia) ] so i think they chose the best person.
Liam Neeson does a good job too as training bruce wayne to become something more than just a man.


+
No bulky man crouch.
No batman nipples
Explain how he built his batcave + bat armor
Christopher Nolan (director)
new batmobile > old one
Christian Bale
Liam Neeson
Morgan Freeman


-
Crappy one liners.
Fear squences ( you will know when you see it)
ending too fast (goes from choas to resolved neat ending)
3rd act happends way to quick.
Batman learns how to fly/glide and master his equiment very fast.
Batman can drive a tank(batmobile) flawlessly.
Should have been R

=
Go and see this movie on Friday when it opens. You will like it. There are some parts that bother me, but overall its good.

I will add some more later.

what are your thoughts about the main character Christian Bale he seems to have no expressions except psychotic does he pull it off well. I mean im making this example based off of the three movies ive seen with him in it (equilibrium, american psycho, sumthin canyon) I was worried that he might have to show emotion I know when Val Kilmer was batman he f*cked it up cause he cant show any other emotion than suck ass... just curious

[Himura]

I honestly dont like the look of the new batmobile.
Oh, btw, its comes out tomorrow, the 15th

[xenonmodz]

actually some theaters have a 12:01 showing... ashton kutcher as batman would of been comparable to batnipples on alfred

[whistletips]

I think they took the old batnipples from the clooneysuit and put them on Katie Holmes. I saw a sneak last night and in one of the last scene it looked like she had 4 nips.

howstuffworks did a nice little rundown of the new batsuit today: www.howstuffworks.com/batsuit.htmwww.howstuffworks.com/batsuit.htm

Aite, just watched it today, and honestly....it was one of the best movies ive ever seen.

They finally captured how Batman is truly like.

i just got back from seeing this movie. I had high hopes for this cause i knew it wasn't gonna be like the last few batman movies, but this really outdid my hopes. I thought it was fucking awesome, i might even like it better than the original. I dunno what else to say besides go see it

the film is superb, if i have one minor complaint its that they made batman to superhuman at times.

other than that a really good return to form for the series.

I'm a huge batman fan, and my girlfriend is a superman fan. We went and saw this movie today and this movie kicked soooooooooo much ass! My girlfriend even had to admit that they couldnt make a superman movie as good as this batman movie. This is my new favorite movie. MAN I WANNA WATCH IT AGAIN!

how was he superhuman at all?

[Arius]

Two examples of the top of my head.

#1. When he puls the mob boss from the far, and then flys into the air with him
#2. In the asylum when he flys into the upper corner dragging the bloke shooting.

both times they could have shown him using his grappler thing and it wouldnt have looked to bad, but to me on both those occasions I just thought they made him look less human, and more super human.

[Himura]

Well, usually you dont really have to show the grappling hook to get most people to see the connection that yes, he did use it.

[TH!RDEYE]

Christopher Nolan is an awesome director and I knew that if he was going to direct it, it wouldnt be like batman returns with all the gay fluorescent painted walls and all that other comic book crap. He made this movie realistic. The batmobile was reasonable the bat tools made sense it was a more realistic kinda movie and that I thought was a new spin on a ageing genre of superhero movies. My only problem with the movie was 2 things about Christian Bale. His bat voice was super cheesy and his roundish face. Batmans face is distinguished by its broad linear features. The enemies in the movie werent really a focal point so I was disapointed with that but all in all it was by far better than any other batman movie except the first. nothin beats the Jack Nicholson and Michael Keaton

[Arius]

Sigh, it was just my opinion, and as i said before its a great film.

I dont beleive he could have / did use it in the slit seconds he had, and when he took the bloke from the car, he had hold of him with both hands so unless he magically grew a third arm he didnt use it.

It dosent take away from the film, but for me it was just one thing I thought they could have tweaked, its still a superb film.

[sulfur]

he had hold of him with both hands so unless he magically grew a third arm he didnt use it.

he had it wrapped around his belt. It showed him doing that on the screen.
