The Batman
"they think I'm hiding in the shadows, but I AM the shadows"
The Batman is nothing short of a cinematic masterpiece. Matt Reeves did something special here. I've grown up through multiple iterations of Batman now. You'd think I'd be getting old if the same Batman type stuff by now right? In an age of comic book movie slop, Reeves manages to create one of the greatest pieces of superhero media currently available. Everything from the plot itself to how the characters are written, how they speak...the visuals and the incredible soundtrack. I can't not praise the hell out of The Batman.
We follow Bruce Wayne/Batsy Boy in his early years of vigilantism. And mans is OBSESSED. There isn't much of a difference between Bruce and Batman in this film but that's on purpose. If you understand the story that's being told that shouldn't be much of an issue. We know the character will inevitably evolve into somehow an even greater one that we currently have. Robert Pattinson gives one hell of a performance. I myself am obsessed with this version of the character. I've spent hours just listening to Reeves and the cast and crew going into detail how this production was made. It's nothing short of incredible. There's so much love and care for the character put on display. All of the cast is phenomenal, notably Collin Farrell was a standout as The Penguin. I can't wait for that series. Jeffrey Wright as Commissioner Gordon was a god tier casting choice. Paul Dano as usual gives a good show as well. Perfect for the Riddler.
The Batmobile scene is forever burned in my mind. It got me to spend money on ROCKET LEAGUE for crying out loud. Wait till that bitch gets in Fortnite and everyone is done for.
