You Wanted Me, Here I Am

Advantages: An excellent Screenplay, brilliant performances and a very enjoyable movie
Disadvantages: Other than the sad death of Heath Ledger none

Having established himself as the protector of Gotham City, Batman sets out with the help of the District Attorney Harvey Dent and Police Lieutenant Jim Gordon to bring down the largest Criminal organisations. Their plans take a bit of a diversion though when a new mastermind takes control of Gotham's crime syndicate. The Joker demands that Batman unmask himself and sets off on a killing spree to try and ensure it happens. The real question for the ...
...been over a year since the follow up to Batman Begins was released but yesterday rather than head to the cinema we decided to finally watch it. Having heard nothing but good things about it and loving the previous film it seemed almost unbelievable that we hadn't watched it yet. Where Batman Begins had in my opinion taken the Batman films to a new level I was hoping that The Dark Knight would carry on this progression and I certainly wasn't disappointed. ...

...cast, with many established British actors. It is good to see the characters in their younger incarnations before they become vital to the Batman world. The special effects are stunning and will dazzle and amaze. This is an amazing film from Christopher Nolan that definitely does the Batman franchise justice. ...

...him. in this batman film the joker is a bit more of a terrorist than a criminal, with blackmail and hostages. batman has a sort of Q from james bond and a new good guy Harvey who is a sort of polatictian who has a dark ending. Cast Dark Knights cast is absolutly outstanding, they may not be brad pitt, tom cruise and keria knightly (they're really famous) but it has actors that act just as well if not better. a special congrates to Heath Ledger ...

Batman Begins/ Dark Knight Blu Ray Box

Advantages: Great Films, Good Value for Blu Ray
Disadvantages: Still cheaper to buy normal DVD and the difference isnt that huge

...Nolans Excellent Screen Conversion of The Caped Crusader Both films are set in the dark and dirty city of Gotham, the stories follow Batman as he fights crime and generally saves the day. Batman Begins: This film basically sets the scene for the probable next few batman films, we see bruce waynes story from the murder of his parents... to overcoming personal demons and rising to become the batman. While stopping along the way to kick Scarecrow ...
...packing in his job as the Batman, theres a new politician in town... a Mr Harvey Dent,and he is doing a great job of cleaning up Gotham so why would Gotham need a Vigilante..... because the jokers in town thats why. I have to honestly say joking aside.... Heath Ledgers performance in this film is nothing short of AMAZING, he will make you walk around asking people " Why So Serious" Trust Me.... buy this film... just to see him in his final and finest ...

As So The Story Begins

Advantages: Good action, great effects, good storyline
Disadvantages: Batman's voice!

...curious to find out how Batman began and what made him want to be him. I am so glad that I did as I so enjoyed the film. As I said previously this was watched on the TV so this is a FILM ONLY REVIEW. At the start of the film we see a very young Bruce Wayne playing with his friend Rachael when he falls down a well and is attacked by bats. He suffers nightmares from this and when he is at the opera with his parents and there are bat like actors on ...
...was keen to know how Batman became what he did and I have to say that I was not disappointed in anyway. I think the only downside to the film for me was the role of Christian Bale as I did not like him playing the role in the Dark Knight either. He was great when he was playing Bruce Wayne and even when he put the Bat suit on but as soon as he opened his mouth as Batman it just went wrong! I loved how he managed to portray the hurt he was bottling ...
