Review of The Batman (2022) by Richard Lawson for Vanity Fair — 28 Feb 2022
The reality is that there is probably nothing truly novel to be done with Batman at this point. He’s been thoroughly mined for both fun and pathos; try as Reeves and his co-screenwriter Peter Craig might, they can’t squeeze much higher-meaning blood out of a fatally depleted stone.
Pattinson, moody and saturnine, does what he can, but he’s not afforded much beyond growling and scowling.
