Batman Begins

Batman Begins isn’t a bad movie. It’s not a poorly made movie, for the most part. But it’s a maddeningly uneven movie, a movie that should be much better than it is. It’s a movie that, if it had followed the trajectory of the first hour, I would be saying is an Oscar contender. In the end Batman Begins is a movie that tries but ultimately fails.

exactly.

Batman Begins is a movie divided sharply in half. One half is a movie that director Christopher Nolan understands. The other is a movie that he wishes he did, or that he’s trying very hard to understand. The first half of Batman Begins is a drama, a story about a young man who has traveled thousands of miles from his home to find himself and his place. On the other side of the world from his wealthy American home, Bruce Wayne finds the mysterious Ducard, a man who becomes a new father to him. Ducard takes Wayne under his wing and trains him in the ways of the ninja, promising him a way to bring the justice he so badly wants to the world. All of this is intercut with the story of the young Bruce Wayne and the murder of his parents, and it works. It’s easy to forget that it’s the singer, not the song, and in the hands of a storyteller like Nolan the complex and dark story gains new resonance and meaning. He makes it fresh.

exactly again.

Loved the first hour. The second hour just became a boring standard action movie. Youre better then that Batman.
