Can't overstate how much I enjoyed the fact that they managed to portray a realistic "rookie" Batman. He ****s up, multiple times, but it never feels forced for the sake of the plot or takes away from his badassery.

The Patinson voice over was the only cringeworthy facet of the movie. It reminded me of South Park's Cartman as the Coon |

Very much so. When Bale was driving the Tumbler over rooftops, he had the same permascowl on his face that he always did. When Pattinson was driving through traffic with all the shit going on around him, he looked like he was going to piss himself.

Blew away my medium expectations.. won’t put it over TDK after one watch. But it might get there for me. Easily above the other 2.
Gotham was dark and beautiful Casting was on point.. up until the last cameo…. Trying not to judge off a minute clip, but didn’t feel right The Emo Bruce worked for this one, but hoping to see a lighter side in the future |

I just got back from seeing it. Really enjoyed it. They certainly went more "Detective" Batman and not super hero swing in from everywhere Batman. Do not get that 44 oz of soda if you have a small bladder. just saying.
One of the visuals that impressed me was when he had the Flare and was helping people out of the wreckage. Then he is walking them out and it is an over head shot of him "leading Gotham out of the darkness" So many other shots as well. I think it was well worth spending money on it at a Theater. |

Mother ****ing masterpiece.
I am ****ing speechless. The Batman that fans truly deserve. Best picture of the year so far and it is not even close. |

For people who aren’t MCU or DC fanatics (I haven’t seen a super hero movie since...Iron Man in 2008. Oh wait— I did see Deadpool), will they enjoy it? You guys are talking it up quite a bit, and it’s raised my level of interest enough to consider dragging my wife to a theater.
I don’t look down my nose at super hero movies, they just aren’t for me. This clearly seems different, and allows viewers with little to no knowledge of backstories, etc. to enjoy. Probably a stand alone / one and done movie, I’d guess. |

It is THAT good. I can't stress enough how entertaining it was. The plot was very well thought out & detailed and its long run time was used wisely in order to build character development and move the story along. Definitely see this in theaters on the biggest screen possible with the most booming theater speakers imaginable (the score is sublime and whenever the Batman theme came up in different versions , I got goose bumps every time) You won't see any stupid talking racoons in The Batman or any idiotic time traveling elements in The Batman or any type of stupid lame slap stick comedy in The Batman either (there is some really well done dark humor that was used in The Batman though. Mainly from Zoe Kravitz and Colin Farrell as the Penguin) Pattinson was ****ing awesome as Batman too. The Batman is the best most entertaining film I've seen in theaters since Blade Runner 2049 (and that was all the way back in 2017) See it while you can. I plan on seeing it again later this week. |

Really great movie. Just as much of a true detective type movie as it is a superhero movie. They did a great job of stringing the audience along for a long movie but keeping each step interesting and making you want to see the next clue.
Also great job casting this movie. Last edited by WhawhaWhat; 03-06-2022 at 03:02 PM.. |

I could see Joaquin Phoenix's Joker existing in this Universe. It was that grounded and gritty. Although...
Spoiler!
Overall 10/10. Loved the music...borrows just enough from the Imperial March to still be awesome and not make you see Vader instead of The Batman. |

I thought it was outstanding. Only minor quibble is that it could have been about 15-20 minutes shorter. Got a little flabby in the middle. But that’s minor. I know ‘Joker’ was a one off, but it feels like it could exist in The Batman’s universe.
