Batman Begins is a great example of what a reboot should be. It honors the source material, yet creates something that is new and exciting. This movie is a bit slow at the beginning, but it manages to pick up the pace and create thrilling scenes and dramatic tension -- all while remaining anchored to a realistic world. This movie helped me better understand why Bruce Wayne becomes Batman and why the criminals fear him. Well done, Mr. Nolan.

Despite the previous attempts at a decent Batman movie by DC, Batman Begins finally hits the mark. This movie is generally not regarded as the best of the Dark Knight Trilogy, and I tend to agree, but this film really opened the audience's eyes to what a true Batman film is and prepared them for the grave yet entertaining sequels, The Dark Knight and The Dark Knight Rises. Christian Bale (Bruce Wayne/Batman) was an excellent choice by the casters as his acting truly depicts the dark and mysterious side of Batman which has never been shown before in a film. Christian Bale along with other exceptional and well known actors such as Liam Neeson (Ducard) and Michael Caine (Alfred) really made the movie as interesting and exciting as it was. Without the impeccable acting, I fell the movie would not have the same impact. The plot, which I found interesting, was incredibly easy to follow. I'm this case, with multiple younger children watching this film, I think it was a smart choice. But I believe it needed just one intricate story piece or another scene of Bruce Wayne's childhood for the older portion of the audience. The setting in which the movie took place was crucial to the entire movie. The dark and fear-filled setting that was used starting around the 30 minute mark, was useful in the form of getting the audience into a prepared mindset for the rest of the film. I do have one minuscule problem with the setting...it was very repetitive. After the setting became fear-filled and intense, it rarely ever came out of that environment which for me wasn't a problem but I felt that it needed another 2 minute clip of a lighthearted scene. The soundtrack for this movie was absolutely impeccable and useful in every aspect. I greatly enjoyed listening the to the frightening and fierce music throughout the movie. In the end, Batman Begins was an outstanding film and through every twist and turn that it took, you were along on the ride. I 100% recommend this film.

After the crash because of Batman's last movie before The Dark Knight trilogy that didn't really reflect the impression of a real Batman movie, Christopher Nolan makes something like that in the three series of The Dark Knight. Tim Burton's Batman I think is very good where he shows some of the great actors such as Michael Keaton and Jack Nicholson and was a comic appreciation in the form of the best movie ever and this is it, a superhero film directed by a genius of Christopher Nolan and the result is not disappointing.Batman Begins is one of the real superhero movies. The film depicts a picture of Batman's character as a dark, gloomy, creepy, yet fantastic. Christopher Nolan built all those elements into a gothic style which was also shown by Tim Burton himself in his Batman series. At first, I only know this figure from people who often talk about it and honestly, I've never seen it on local television. I only know his name but didn't know the source and anything else. But, I've watched Batman Begins and I know that.This film takes the set with a non-linear pattern like the typical style of Christopher Nolan that will be told in turn. The setting takes in Bruce Wayne character as a child who witnessed his parents being killed before his eyes. Bruce learned how to fight and take it, face the greatest fear of a bat, until learning how to overlook the past. It's your typical superhero-based movie, the protagonist who lost his parents, the beginning of their appearance is considered as a villain and the things that are in the superhero movie.Batman Begins takes the background of a city called Gotham where the city is ruled by evil, another satirical social issue to brings into reality but kinda dark. The protagonist who presents two different characters does have the deepening of the well-development character and for me, this is why the superhero movie existed. Initially, I didn't feel sympathy for the character of Bruce Wayne where I prefer his character as Batman but towards the story, it's gradually moving to two characters with contradictory sympathy. It's not like the character of Bruce Wayne loved by the people in this film where the Batman character is the superhero of Gotham city but these two characters are both likable and there is no sense too keep their exaggeration.Batman Begins uses a plot based on the Batman story but this film doesn't always focus on the characters of Bruce Wayne nor Batman. By adding a supporting character that develops the story and strengthens the protagonist, its passage turns into a more realistic Batman who also attends as a character portraying other superheroes. Christopher Nolan always adorns his films with a hurt protagonist and has a profound mistake on every character and in Batman Begins, all of that is shown from the dilemma that Bruce Wayne must face to the intensity of drama that surrounds him. I also didn't know that Batman is a compilation and summary of a ninja where Batman is the underlying character of it.If talking about Batman then we don't forget the actor who plays it from behind the scenes and we are talking about Christian Bale with his great performance and memorable as Batman character. His performance is convincing and supported by other famous actors such as Liam Neeson, Michael Cane, Gary Oldman, Ken Watanabe, and Morgan Freeman. Love that character played by Cillian Murphy but one thing that fails is the character immediately lost in the climax. Gary Oldman also has a memorable role as a partner of Batman himself, Ken Watanabe is not too explored, Liam Neeson is great too, and Morgan Freeman as well. All the actors I think fit with their respective roles and I hope, the next movie still has the same actors and the role as well.Batman Begins shows as a film that resurrected the Batman franchise and became one of the films that created a variety of influent to the films that tried to follow the technique of Nolan as well. It's darker, portraying the Batman's bleak character figure as well as the urban city, the cinematographic, the actor, and some of the humor that exists. Bottom line, it's great to start with this The Dark Knight trilogy and the second with three series will be coming.

This was a great epic performance by Christian Bale. This movie showcases the becoming of batman. The stylish bike with the excellent suit are worth mentioning. Scarecrow was an important and scary part of the movie. Batman manages to deal with it but is betrayed by Raul. Interesting series of fantasy and action. Great to watch.
