Batman Begins

I'm not a real fan of Batman,if DC Comics and Marvel comics are 2 evils,I'd pick MARVEL as the lesser.Marvel always made better comics(The Avengers suck though) but,however Marvel usually hasn't had good movie adaptation(with the exception of Spiderman that movie was good). DC has always usually had good adaptations of movies especially Batman. Eventually the Batman series of movies went down hill until it got so bad the only point to watch Batman and Robin was to hear Schwarzennegar(Better actor than governor times alot).Eventually it got so bad one director decided to change and recreate Batman into something good,the product.........


Batman Begins which was sooo good they made a sequel,THE Dark Knight.I,know,I know of the craze that's probably the first thing anyone who reads this would suggest me to review.One problem folks,I haven't seen The Dark Knight.Will this appease ya' Huh HUh,HUUUUUHHHHH?!?!?!

I came across this movie on the way up to a sledding activity in the mountains and uh yeah I liked it. WHY? Here's why

Batman Begins

Presentation: 20/20 (Good presentation,best presentation off all comic book based movies,sorry SPIDEY you out)

Plot:20/20 (Basically after going to an opera house,he sees bats and gets so scared the 2 parents decide to exit,unfortunatley they exit out into a dark ally where Joe Chill awaits to get they're money he demands they refuse,we all know who dies.Years later he gets a gun and is about to shoot and avenge his parents when a guy working for Crime Boss Carmine Falcone shoots Joe Chill.As he confronts Falcone,Falcone dismisses him. Sensing Falcone is right he seeks mentor ship in the mountains with a sinister mentor.After returning and a few events Ra's al Ghul shows up(Liam Neeson) and reveals a plot to destroy Gotham City in order to cleanse the rest of the Earth he claims to have been responsible for the London Fire and the Sacking of Rome.The plot to use crazy gas made by Dr.Jonathan Crane/Scarecrow which will go into the water supply wiping everybody out)

Characters: 18/20 ( I like the main character I just wish the real him was his non-superhero identity,his non superhero identity is a selfish, obnoxious,bratty,and spoiled jerk who has a benevolent side which is what most heroes start off as and most regular humans at that. His hero side is caring and goes out of the way to save lives.I like the villains they were excellent,Ra's al Ghul shoulda' lived longer.Rachel Dawes was good new character introduced as a childhood)

Bale's Role:20/20 (Beyond superb pretty good at being both the selfish side and the hero side,while I have to admit his Batman growl does get old,it's the dialogue that has my attention)

Neeson's Role:20/20 (Best at the part in the whole movie,seriously Bale is so overrated I'd say Neeson has a slight edge. His quiet,cold voice made my shiver like a good villain should)

Set: 20/20(Good set it looks extremely expensive,like more expensive than National Treasure expensive and National Treasure set was not cheap.The City was very much detailed and realistic)

Execution:15/20 (Leaves a bit to be desired but hey it's mostly pretty damn well executed)

Final:19/20(Good movie certainly a must watch until my eyes droop kind of movie but well it could've been executed a little better,not that I could do so)
