Film Review: Batman Begins
Batman Begins

Written by: Christopher Nolan and David S. Goyer
Directed by: Christopher Nolan
Given that I’m going to see the Dark Knight tomorrow night, I thought it would be a good time to go revisit Batman Begins. I will eventually go back to all of the older Batman films, but I’ll start here. There was quite a bit of hype over this one, albeit not as much as Dark Knight, but quite a bit and was it deserved? Certainly. While the approach is not going to win over everyone, the methodically paced orgin story for the Caped Crusader was engaging, entertaining and as true to a character as a comic movie could be…save perhaps J Jonah Jameson in the Spidey saga.

Review by Jedi Daniel
Wednesday was the premiere of The Dark Knight here in Australia. I booked tickets a week in advance knowing it would be packed. There hasn’t been a movie like this since Star Wars Episode 3 Revenge of the Sith with news crew outside the cinema interviewing awaiting fans.
Batman Begins was one of, if not the best comic book movie I had seen. It’s very rare when a sequel delivers more than the original and thought it may not be topped. However after Wednesdays screening, I was eating my own words. The movie can now be added to a rare list which includes Star Wars Episode 5 The Empire Strikes Back, X-Men 2, Terminator 2: Judgement Day and Aliens.

He reprises the role in triumphant fashion in “Batman Gotham Knight,” the highly-anticipated third film in the ongoing series of DC Universe animated original PG-13 movies.
