As the weekend has now passed, we sit with most likely over thousands of Batman reviews, and another review appears from the shadows. Just kidding, I write this review from the comfort of my living room. But when we saw this movie at our local theater it was a packed house. Full of fans and most likely youtuber movie critics covered in batman attire, it was a fun night to watch a new Batman rise, and I will tell you this. This movie was most definitely delivered. From the atmosphere, the music, the action, the suspense, the characters, the direction, the grimness, and, of course, The Batman.
When it was first announced that Robert Pattinson was playing Batman, I didn’t really know much about his previous work. I never watched the Twilight movies, not that I was hating on them. I just didn’t have an interest in watching, but overall, from what everybody told me about his acting, he is a really great actor and his performance as a more menacing and reckless Batman he did a very great job and cant wait to see what has for the future.
The Premise. Gotham City on a cold halloween night is caught off guard by murder of a power official in Gotham city. A man leaves a calling card with a riddle inside for a two year veteran Batman. Jim Gordan needs his help to help solve these murders and riddles, but the rest of the police force does not trust Vigilante. While Batman struggles with the Riddler murders a young Bruce Wayne struggle stuggles with family secrets that come out. Now, Bruce Wayne must overcome the demons and face the challenges, but he also needs the aid of Selena Kyle, Aka Catwoman, while he faces other enemies like Oswald Cobbelpot and Carmine Falcone.
I got to say for me personally that this was my favorite catwoman that I have ever seen on the big screen. She was very strong, slick, and loved her look, and I must admit I have a big crush on Zoe Kravitz, so I was already sold when she announced to play Catwoman and I hope at some point she gets her own spinoff. She definitely deserves it, in my opinion. Then theres
This was my favorite overall character in the movie, and it’s incredible how they turned Collin Farrell into the Penguin. I still can not reconize him when I look into the picture. He was brash, had some funny lines, and this was the penguin i always wanted to see. I know everybody loves Danny Devitos penguin, but for this, Penguin blows Batman Retuns penguin out of the water for me and can not wait to see Hbo max series.
The tone of this movie was incredible; it was very dark and grim. It almost gave me a feel.of the first Tim Burton movie while the music blended in with Nirvana gave me a Batman Returns vibe. Also, Matt Reeves direction gives this movie a slight horror tone the movie.
I loved this Riddler; he was scary, his voice, his riddles, and his presence was so creepy and fit perfectly to the movie. We all love Jim Carrey as the Riddler, but this character was in a desperate need of an upgrade, and we definitely got that for this character.
Overall Grade A+
This movie was a masterpiece for me and can not wait for a sequel. Now, am I going to say this was the best Batman movie? I am not ready to give it that crown, but with a test of time, more.views and may just become that. Now, even if you do not agree with this review, at least we can all agree on one thing. This movie is for sure better than Batman and Robin. But all jokes aside, I loved this movie, and I want to watch again, but I do not want to sit for that long again. Tell me what you thought about the movie. Your likes and dislikes. What do you want to see for a sequel, and what characters do you want to see join this new Batman universe? But thank you so much for taking your time to read this review and until next be safe and much love to my followers and readers. Have a great day.
