    It took me a while
    When I first watched this movie back when it came out I hated it. I'm not sure why I just did. And about 3 months ago I rewatched the movie and absolutely loved it. And then just yesterday I watched it again.

    A lot of people didn't like how Bruce Wayne was so... emo I guess but I think that if his parents have died he will be emo and I think that's the kind of Batman everyone's been secretly wanting.

    I loved Paul Dano as the riddler, I think he did a great job portraying this much more sinister version of the beloved villain.

    So if you're looking for a dark and gritty (practically R rated) Batman movie this movie will just hit in all the right spots!

    REVIEW REGARDING THE BATMAN!
    I have seen alot of iterations of batman, in comics, cartoons and in the movies, this movie was exceptional, they could have cast a better catwoman though! The suspense and the thrill was top-notch! They also could have introduced more characters such as the two-face or killer croc in the movie! The detective part and the energy of the flick was astounding, hopefully if there is a second part, it will be a success in the same-way! They also could have included it in the dc extended universe instead of stand alone movie, the previous versions of Bale, Affleck, Keaton, Kilmer, West, Conrroy, all could be seen reasonating in this movie too! Afterall batman without his gadgets and suit is just an ordinary human being with a couple of unfortunate events in his life!

    Best Batman movie. Couldn't have done it better.
    The cinematographic is just amazing, the gloominess of the UK was the best place to film Batman. Also, the iceberg lounge/ club scene? It made me want to go so badly, but sadly it closed. The plot twists? I'm not gonna go any further, but every time I thought the movie was about to end, something would happen again, but not in a way that the movie seemed to carry on and on, but it was done perfectly. The actors? Amazing cast. Arguably, and surprisingly Robert Pattinson is perfect for Batman and in my opinion the best Batman. Every person cast fits their character perfectly. One of my favourite movies ever.

    Worst detective batman movie!
    It's 3 hours long and it takes him 45 minutes to figure out "a rat with wings" is him and not the penguin. Batman is a great detective in the comics and it's not shown here. This movie had some good moments but overall isn't good. Whiny little emo Bruce. Robert Pattinson is good in other roles but this was just awful. I can only assume a bunch of twilight fan girls and their extremely depressed bfs are the only reason this movie has such a hype because it's a terrible Batman movie. Zoe Kravitz deserved better because she kills it but this is an over hyped hot pile of garbage. Scrap this too DC.

    The best
    It's a really great movie. The production, the acting, the story were all flawless. The dark and gloomy atmosphere of Gotham city, which we are familiar with from the comics, was reflected in the film very well by the director. Another thing that also influenced me and drew me into the film was the music. It's one of the best quality superhero movies I've seen in recent years. There were some doubts about Robert Pattinson months before the film came out, but as seen in the film, he showed great acting. I hope that the second film will be as impressive and unique as the first film. Congratulations.

    The Batman: a riddle to solve
    The Batman is everything you would ask for in a superhero movie, a good performance by Pattison is what gives that touch of darkness to a Batman (Very newcomer) who we can say feels very "angry" inside and his only purpose: Revenge, The story is a river of mystery and riddle, and that makes it slow but very precise, the environment in which it takes place is quite dark and very rotten (as it says at the beginning of the movie), I It is quite reminiscent of movies like Blade Runner and Seven, with that grotesque atmosphere that even anything can happen. Also highlight Fraser's cinematography, Reeves's direction, the visual effects and the performances of Pattison and Kravitz as Catwoman (she deserves a separate review). In conclusion The Batman is a good movie, one of the best of 2022 and the best superhero movie in recent years.

    The promising future of superhero movies
    Personally, I am not very fond of the superhero genre. But there are always exceptions in life, which is also the case in cinema.

    Batman movie is one of these exceptions for me.

    First of all, I must say that comparing this movie to Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight is completely wrong and should be viewed as a completely independent work.

    The film is truly a masterpiece in terms of visual effects. In recent years, Marvel has tired us all by presenting low-quality and repetitive visual effects, but the innovations of the Batman film team have encouraged us to use special effects in cinema again. . In relation to the action sequences of the film, the team has performed well and presented believable and attractive action to the audience.

    I liked the director's realistic view of the DC world and the city of Gotham and its heroes. Although the movie is in the superhero genre, they turned it into a crime-mystery thriller.

    In general, this movie will determine the future of the superhero genre and the DC world, and I think it will be successful.

    Regarding Robert Pattinson's act, I must say that he can be a great Batman for the fans and it is too early to judge.

    The Bat Whisperer
    Whole movie is shot so darkly that you can hardly SEE anything and the characters all whisper so quietly that you can hardly HEAR anything, plus its dull as dishwater.

    Had to turn the subtitles on as even after turning up the volume it was so quiet.

    This is 3 hours of torture by boredom. Has absolutely nothing on Nolan's Dark Knight trilogy.

    The casting is terrible, the audio is terrible, the brightness/contrast is terrible and the soundtrack is even worse - it's emo Batman with an emo Batman soundtrack - Batman's theme song in this film is a Nirvana song - why?! Like everything else about this movie it doesn't fit.

    It was absolutely boring.
    The whole movie was just really dark and boring. I went into the movie expecting it to be good not as good as the Christian Bale Batman's. But what I got was a dark super confusing with some white man bad and the ending fight scene was really disappointing and pointless there wasn't a villain fight. There was a car chase that was meant to be really cool but it felt like a video game cut scene. Not like a movie scene. There was a lot of virtue signaling every white guy who had any power was a bad guy and every other ethnicity was a good guy even the Batman didn't seem to think he was the good guy.

    I don't even rate DC
    This is an honest review from a Marvel fan. I do watch DC films, but only if I'm bored. We sat down tonight to watch The Batman and I was dreading the 3 hours, so I was expecting to have a little nap. After watching Black Adam the other week I really was not expecting much from a DC film.

    I was blown away by this film and I wasn't even bored once. R-Patz did an outstanding job at playing this infamous role! When I found out he was playing this role I did have a bit of a laugh.

    The storyline was gripping and very well done, I liked how dark it was. It can be all too easy to make these films super cheesy. There was a little bit of a love story and a lot of girl power. The acting was really good and they got the castings spot on.

    I actually look forward to the next one........
