Amazon.com:
Batman Begins discards the previous four films in the series and recasts the Caped Crusader as a fearsome avenging angel. That's good news, because the series, which had gotten off to a rousing start under Tim Burton, had gradually dissolved into self-parody by 1997's Batman & Robin. As the title implies, Batman Begins tells the story anew, when Bruce Wayne (Christian Bale) flees Western civilization following the murder of his parents. He is taken in by a mysterious instructor named Ducard (Liam Neeson in another mentor role) and urged to become a ninja in the League of Shadows, but he instead returns to his native Gotham City resolved to end the mob rule that is strangling it. But are there forces even more sinister at hand?

Cowritten by the team of David S. Goyer (a veteran comic book writer) and director Christopher Nolan (Memento), Batman Begins is a welcome return to the grim and gritty version of the Dark Knight, owing a great debt to the graphic novels that preceded it. It doesn't have the razzle dazzle, or the mass appeal, of Spider-Man 2 (though the Batmobile is cool), and retelling the origin means it starts slowly, like most "first" superhero movies. But it's certainly the best Bat-film since Burton's original, and one of the best superhero movies of its time. Bale cuts a good figure as Batman, intense and dangerous but with some of the lightheartedness Michael Keaton brought to the character. Michael Caine provides much of the film's humor as the family butler, Alfred, and as the love interest, Katie Holmes (Dawson's Creek) is surprisingly believable in her first adult role. Also featuring Gary Oldman as the young police officer Jim Gordon, Morgan Freeman as a Q-like gadgets expert, and Cillian Murphy as the vile Jonathan Crane. --David Horiuchi

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Back To Its Roots
After the colossal flop that was "Batman and Robin", the entire Batman franchise went into a bit of a lull. Rumors of a "young Bruce Wayne becoming Batman" movie circulated for years, but nothing substantial was finalized. That is, of course, until this masterpiece from Christopher Nolan.

Whereas the first two Batman films were very gothic, and the following two were little more than action-adventure fare, this film delved into the important issue of "why is a man driven to dress up ... Read More


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Batman Begins.
Blu-Ray quality is amazing both in sound and visuals, would have loved more extras but excellent all in all.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Better than the DARK KNIGHT
After watching the Dark KNight, twice, I couldn't help but thinking 'why everybody is so crazy about the neew movie, isn't the Begins way better?'

I'm not here to criticize the Dark KNight, because it really is a great movie that has everything. Smart and sly evil character doing whatever he can to destroy people's lives, and the Batman struggling to keep up with his selfcommitment to justice without people's fair recognition. What a Drama.

However after all, I should raise ... Read More


Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - May be my Blu-Ray player, but...
...I did everything I could to get the latest software updates to my BDP-S1 Blu Ray player in preparation for this disk. By the time I did all the updates I had the very latest software right off of Sony's website. It looked great once I finally got it playing (which took 3 or 4 attempts for some reason - again may have been my player). However, I had to watch the entire movie before finally seeing the DVD menu with the extra features. I really wanted to watch the Dark Knight movie preview right away ... Read More


Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - It's about time.
Finally a version of Batman that seems made for adults instead of children. A decent plot and villains that are not completely over the top. My only complaint would be that most of the scenes in Gotham city are too dark. All in all, an enjoyable action movie to show how the Batman legend begins.
