It's not who I am underneath, but what I do that defines me.
Bruce Wayne is constantly tortured by his childhood memories when he witnessed his parents being murdered. Taken under the wing of The League Of Shadows, a deadly ninja assassin army devoted to erasing crime with their own brand of harsh justice. After completing training, Wayne refuses to join them on account of not agreeing with their methods, he returns to Gotham City to reek his own one man war against crime.
Director Christopher Nolan literally goes back to Batman origins to not just give the dead franchise a kiss of life,... read the rest.
i'm beginning to think people only say a movie is good because of it being long and having a good camera. to me the only highlight was cillian murphy's performance. the rest of this was just some dumb, boring trek.
Christopher Nolan's "Batman Begins" shows us exactly how Bruce Wayne (Christian Bale) transforms into the caped crusader we all know and love, Batman. Admittedly like many others, even though this is the first entry in the Dark Knight Trilogy, I watched it is as my last one, and that is due to me not even knowing of it's existence, which is thanks to it being heavily overshadowed by the critically acclaimed sequel, "The Dark Knight."
Batman Begins has a simple plot to follow full of twists. A young Bruce Wayne travels to the Far East, where he's trained in the martial arts by Henri Ducard (L... read the rest.
Christopher Nolan and Christian Bale are at the top of their games with this enthralling interpretation of just how "Batman" came to be.

He plans to use his training to return to the larg... read the rest.
Batman Begins opened the door for the new age of superhero cinema with its realistic, grounded approach and excellent quality.

Batman was stripped of all the goofy comic book shtick and thrust into a gritty real world that spent time d... read the rest.
It was a nice change to see for a batman series of movies that were going down hill. This movie was ok but at least it's not as bad as the ones that were being made before this.
A very self-involved and glum Batman. Not my favourite. Once we finally get to Batman being Batman it's a cool movie. Christian Bale wears the cape well, but the villains lack grit.
