Saw it last night. A lot of people were skeptikal about this film, because Batman and Robin (1998) was such a horrible movie. But I knew it'd be better, 'cuz it's based on the original Batman comics. It gives the audience a different view of Batman's (Christian Bale from American Psycho) origin - mainly including Bruce Wayne's training under Ra's Al Ghul (Ken Wantanabe from The Last Samurai). The main villain in this movie is Dr. Jonathan Crane, aka The Scarecrow (Cillian Murphy from 28 Days Later). Also included in the cast are Morgan Freeman, Katie Holmes, and Liam Neeson. Michael Cain (Nigel Powers in Goldmember) plays Alfred, which I felt was an excellent casting decision. And yes, the new Batmobile fuckin' rocks. I don't wanna explain too much 'cuz I don't wanna spoil the movie, but it's da bomb.

My rating: 4.75/5

Anybody seen this/planning on it?
