The Batman

First actual thrilling movie in a long time. The intro was well executed, I was instantly hooked. The Riddler has to be one of my favourite villains. The psychological depth of Bruce Wayne is unmatched, I think this is one of the few things that I kinda missed in Nolan's trilogy. On the other hand in Nolan's trilogy I think there was a somewhat more an equal balance in Bruce Wayne's sceentime and Batman's, but then again the movie is called "The Batman" so I can't really complain. I did watch this film in two sittings, so I don't think it was too long. I think if I had watched this in one go, I would have thought it to be too long, because it's a 3h movie. This film easily tops Nolan's first and third Batman films and I dare say that it's (almost?) at the same level as The Dark Knight. The only thing I kinda missed was Batman's deep voice, nonetheless very enjoyable watch, great action scenes and lots of "aura moments". I look forward to part ll. "Fear is a tool. When that light hits the sky, it's not just a call. It's a warning." "I'm starting to see now. I have had an effect here... but not the one I intended. Vengeance won't change the past, mine or anyone else's. I have to become more. People need hope. To know someone's out there for them."
