Utterly Brilliant....
Having just returned from the cinema, I felt I had to write a review for Hollywood's best blockbuster in ages. Batman Begins is, as you would expect, a film that depicts how Bruce Wayne became the 'Bat'. The film has a fantastic mix of action, storytelling and homur that keeps the pace chopping along nicely. The special FX are excellent and the Bat-Mobile is just cool. I have to admit, the one thing that I thought stood out the most is the very dark nature of the film (which it should be!), it worked really well and there were some moments that younger viewers or those of a sensitive nature might find a bit spooky. The cast list was top notch, as was the acting and directing. All in all, I have not enjoyed a trip to the cinema as much in a long time and I would strongly urge you to see this on the big screen. However, no matter when or where you simply must watch this film... its the best blockbuster that Hollywood has produced in a very long time - very highly recommended ;o)

Just Okay
Just okay for a Batman film, I preferred some of the other ones. Acting was not as good as expected and weak plot lines.
