Batman Begins

Pros: The movie gives a realistic view of the comic book character.
Cons: The attempted romance between Bruce and Rachel goes nowhere.

Between 1989 to 1997 four Batman movies were released with three different actors (Michael Keaton, Val Kilmer and George Clooney) portraying the caped crusader. We were also treated to a slew of over the top villains including the Joker (Jack Nicholson), ...

Pros: Christian Bale, Bruce Wayne, Comic Plot, Casts, Acting, Childhood Flashback, New Beginning, Dialogue
Cons: Action

The dark knight look like Batman with usual dark clothes Bruce Wayne played by Christian Bale bent his arms down on knee made a cover for this movie, "Batman Begins." He plays the dark hero who wanders how much he could become the stature of liberty ...

Pros: Better acting and direction than any blockbuster in recent memory
Cons: Not for kids... or girls

Suddenly it's a good time to be a moviegoing fan of comic books again. After watching forlornly as Frank Miller's film career disintegrated amid the combined chaos of Robocops 2 and 3, it has been a source of considerable delight to see this master ...

Pros: Brilliant acting, directing, action, and story.
Cons: Overtly grounded in reality Action overwhelms the final act

A sense of euphoria swept over me as the title sequence opened for Batman Begins. The screech of thousands of bats began to swarm around the theater fading into the screen. Through this blurred image, I caught myself squinting. Did I just see the ...

Pros: Great story and acting
Cons: None

I've always been a casual Batman fan at best. I liked the 60's TV show and the later films, but found the first two way too dark for my tastes. I had little desire to see this film until friends and family started raving about it. I decided to give it ...

Pros: definitive storyline of Bruce Wayne, cinematrics and fight scenes, psycho demeanor of Scarecrow, pre-renovated BATMOBILE.
Cons: Katie Holmes, (why?) Bruce Wayne’s secrecy.

As a longtime Batman aficionado, I anxiously chewed my popcorn after fifteen minutes of useless previews to movies I would never see. Anticipating the return of the dark night and my all-time favorite superhero seemed like a means for the worst, what ...

Pros: Great characters! Great cast!
Cons: none.

I've always loved the Batman comics. The entire Batman mythos is so far beyond any other superhero. I respected the Tim Burton films a bit but they were a bit silly. That travesty with Val Kilmer and Jim Carey was shameful and then they mucked it up ...

Pros: Strong in plot and script, superb action scenes and great acting!
Cons: none.

Not as Cartoonish as past batman movies, void of any influence from the old TV Series starring Adam West, What started out as a comic book character so long ago...has returned with a true essence of what Batman, and Bruce Wayne, are really all about. ...

Pros: good cast (believeable characters,) nice special effects... plus, doesn't everyone love a good super hero?
Cons: The beginning can get a bit tedious. Some parts may be confusing.

I saw Batman Begins last night. It was, in some ways, a generic comic book super hero movie: 1) It helped to have my brother with me, who's read up on the comics and could remember all the character's names and just explain the semi-iffy spots. I ...

Pros: More true to the source material than any previous Batman movie.
Cons: Katie Holmes.

I knew it would be good, but I am very happy to say it was VERY GOOD. In my opinion, it is the best Batman movie yet. My previous favorite of the bunch was Batman Returns. Christopher Nolan weaved a wonderful tale of a flawed hero, introducing the ...

Pros: Compelling story, characters we can empathize with, fun and exciting
Cons: A few "duh" moments that make you think screnewriters are very very dumb?

Overall enjoyable but (spoiler follows) some of the same flaws that almost all Hollywood action movies seem to have: incredibly stupid parts that distract from the suspension of disbelief, predictable formulaic plot, and a been there, done that tedious ...

Pros: Fantastic story, brilliantly executed. Looking forward to the sequels.
Cons: The Bat-voice seems a bit overdone.

Like most Batman fans, I was severely displeased by Batman + Robin's genital close-ups, Bat-nipples and ice-skates. I nearly stood and cried out "Mr. Freeze is a scientist, not a Schwarzennegger!" I was disheartened that not even Tommy Lee Jones ...

Pros: This is how batman should have been made from the start dark and grown up.
Cons: none

Director – Christopher Nolan. Main Cast – Christian Bale as Bruce Wayne/Batman Liam Neeson as Ducard . Michael Caine as Alfred Pennyworth. Katie Holmes as Rachel Dawson . Cillian Murphy as Dr. Jonathan Crane/The Scarecrow. Gary ...

Pros: Cast, special effects, action scenes
Cons: The film constantly feels like it just started.

An interesting way to go about a franchise: instead of making a sequel or a prequel in typical fashion, restart the series even after the previous installments were successful. This is exactly what happens with Batman Begins. This movie has NOTHING to do ...

Pros: Attention to detail and story Batman is taken seriously Thoughtfully cast.
Cons: Wish it was longer, but you have to end a film at some point.

A few hours ago, I left the movie theater, so satisfied. A huge thanks to the makers of Batman Begins! I'm writing this, bearing in mind that I don't want to spoil it for those that have not seen it. Batman fans will see it, so I don't have to ...
