Batman enters into the 21st Century in "Batman Begins"

Ok, so went to see the new Batman movie and I loved it, it seemed to bring the comic book into the next century for the next generation of readers and fans of the Dark Knight. Batman Begins gave a great background on how Bruce Wayne began his crime fighting career as the caped crusader, as well as building the bat cave, learning to fight and showing his deepest fear, which I won‘t give away for those who have for some unknown reason, have not seen it yet. The movie dug deeply into his personal life before he even made the conscious choice to become Batman. Christian Bale did an excellent job portraying the brooding young man who lost his parents when he was a young child and how he hid his fear with anger. It did not however, follow the first Batman movie with Michael Keaton when the joker killed his parents and spouted off the great line he did so well “Ever dance with the devil in the pale moonlight?” I loved that line from Jack Nicholson it gave me goose bumps the first time he said it. I was impressed with the writing and with the sets and how they showed Gotham City as being lived in and not some Hollywood art conception of what it might look like. I do know that most all the actors have signed for the next installment and I am seriously looking forward to it, and for those who will see it or have seen it, you will know who the next villain will be. As far as the Scarecrow, I would have liked to seen more of this character, but I understand that they were doing more background on Batman for this movie so I can live with how they did this. I would however recommend that people who want to take younglings to see it maybe go see it first, some scenes are a little more dark than the young folks might like and I give this film a 4 out of 5 aliens, so go see it and let us know here at SCIFIPUNDIT.

Alex?... ok. the tone and story of the movie are nice, even if parts of the story are done elsewhere in the movie series. I hate to replow old ground cause it is important for this character at this time to re-experience it.. I am sorry to say I fell asleep twice during this movie and both times it was during those type scenes. I thought the action sequences were strained..... they seemed to try to avoid special effects by making the camera all jittery and it was not my favorite way to watch the Dark Knight go BIFF on a bad guy.... all told I would recommend that you wait for this one on your home entertainment center ... sorry alex, we usually very closely agree on these things...

Ok, so I am not a good judge because I don't get to the theater often however I thoroughly enjoyed the movie. I liked the flash back sequences and the building of the batcave.

Alex darling, I didn't even read this, on purpose, until after I saw it.
