Review of Batman Begins (2005) by Mitchell S — 10 Jul 2017

Batman Begins is directed and written by Christopher Nolan and stars Christian Bale, Michael Caine, Liam Neeson, Katie Holmes, Gary Oldman, Cillian Murphy, Tom Wilkinson, Rutger Hauer, Ken Watanabe and Morgan Freeman.

The last Batman film that we ever gotten was the terrible film called Batman and Robin!! Don't remind me it is a cringe of hatred in my book. But Warner Bros. gave the Greenlight for reboot for Batman, they had to do it right. Finding the right riders finding the right director finding the right man to do it. Since Christopher Nolan created three great films, it would be amazing that he will terrible for a big blockbuster film, NOPE.. HE KICKED ASS!!

Finally a great adaptation of Batman, my favorite superhero of all time. I'm not a huge fan of the Joel Schumacher films of his adaptation of Batman. I really love the Tim Burton version of Batman. But Christopher Nolan's version is true realism, and the real Batman vision that the fans and the audience will love and rejoice!!

They finally got the origin story right for Bruce Wayne/Batman. So at the beginning of the film it was mainly flashbacks from bruce's fear of bats and the death of his parents. Just the journey of become Batman is fascinating to look at and Ra's al Ghul and the scarecrow was a perfect fit for the first villains in the new Batman film.

I just really love what Christopher and Allen brought to Batman. Visually it was great, The cinematography fantastic, just the realism as Batman. Bruce Wayne never was born it was any superhero powers. And that's what I found very interesting with Bruce Wayne/Batman because they're just human. No dorky powers or anything but just human and brains. I love every bit of it I love it I love it I love it!!

Beginning middle and end it is such a great journey for seeing a true origin story for Batman. I do like The Dark Knight so much is my favorite film/favorite comic book movie of all time. But the dark Knight was just the middle story, in a trilogy there has to be a beginning a middle and an end. And Christopher Nolan brought the Trilogy into A great and a remembrance to all.

Christian Bell, as one of the three best Batman/Bruce Wayne's out there, I do like Ben Affleck, but I prefer Michael Keaton. The side characters and the villains were phenomenal. What I like about this movie it doesn't overshadow Bruce Wayne. Everybody in the film is very equal in the film and has a purpose in the film. And I think that's what makes so genius with Christopher Nolan's writing, sure there was like some inspiration to bring in this film like Frank Miller comics. You can see a lot from the storyline like The Man Who Falls, Batman: Year One. Really good comic books and I highly ask you to read them.

It was not the moment of shine for the actors to bloom but it was more of the director and writer of Christopher Nolan that brought him to the limelight of what he's very well-known for his dark Knight trilogy and it shows.

Seeing this movie in 2005 really opened my eyes and made more of a loving connection with Batman for me. I love Batman even more just by watching the dark Knight trilogy because Christopher Nolan made it so right. Without Batman begins I will not even know about this great director that is working today.

Grade: A Perfect 10.
