Review of The Batman (2022) by Gamelore — 11 Mar 2022
Pass on this movie unless you want it completely sucking the enthusiasm out of you. Performances are lifeless. It also marked a distinct return to the 80s style lack of attention to realism, leaving no "outs" to explaining so many things that I lost count.
Total reversal of realism from the last trilogy. Also, what was up with the disrespectful pacing? Editor thought he was making a soap opera or Netflix series. I watched "Drive My Car" with the same runtime, completely enthralled with almost nothing happening because editing was crisp and well-framed.
The > 1 -hour of dead footage in The Batman was pointless.
