Batman...
Current mood: amused

Okay as of yesterday I saw Batman Begins and I must say this: It is awsome. Christian Bale is at his best. He is the greatest Batman since Michel Keaton, possibly better. His acting is at a level that I have not seen it at since I saw him in Equalibrium(Haven't written a review on that yet but I will later for now I rank it as **+ out of ****, maybe *** out of **** I'd have to rent it again). He doesn't make me think he would be a good Batman he makes me think that He is Batman. Dear God he did a freaking good job. I have said this about him before but I will say it again American Psycho I thought was one the suckiest horror movies I had ever scene, but I watched because Mr. Bale was just that Good in it. Dark and Brooding Characters are his Speciality. Katie Holmes also did a very good job. Showing her Katie Holmesness throughout the entire film and giving the esscence of what she can do in movies was fully there. Morgan Freeman, I have yet to see Morgan Freeman do a bad job in a movie yet. He showed his dry humor througout the entire film and did an awsome job. Micheal Cain...It's Cain for crying out loud, playing Alfred! How kick ass is that? He did an awsome job. Mr. Liam Neson sid a spectacular job playing Raj Alghoul. Bale, Holmes, Freeman, Cain, Neson...all in the same movie...nough said. The movie starts out smooth and continues that way throughout the entire thing. The plot is unbelieveable, which is exactly what it should be for a hero film making you think outside of the box. I say unbelieveable because I don't see much of this really happening and it reminds me what it was like back when I went to Food Lion and Bought Batman comics off of the shelves. The Dialogue is smooth and well written. The Directing is dark and gritty, possibly more so than Tim Burtons in Batman and Batman Returns. The camera Angles are out of this world and that makes it even more awsome with the fact that there is little to know CGI in the movie almost all if not all the stunds were done by stunmen and Christian Bale himself. The Batmobile, which when I first saw it I did not like, turned out to remind so much of what it was and still is in many ways in tthe comic. Despite a few points were the movie is slow and maybe a little too unbelieveable(key word maybe) I thought it was worth the price of admission and then some. I give Batman Begins ***+ of ****
