The Batman
“Happy fucking Halloween.”
being a longtime super fan of The Batman, somehow I have never watched it on October 31st before and not to be dramatic over this movie yet again but:
1) Matt Reeves is such a genius in Batman mythos that he shows us his origin story through one shot instead of ten minutes spent in crime alley twenty years ago. to me, this is the only filmmaker who only ever truly got Batman.
2) the scene where the GCPD captured Batman and they’re all trying to beat him up and calling him scumbag and Batman gets a bit of confidence but Gordon pins him to the wall and he thinks he got betrayed by the only person he can trust and you can see that his eyes have teared up a bit.
3) Batman’s eyes tear up so many times during this movie it’s insane how delicately Matt Reeves and Robert Pattinson did that (if intentional), he’s still the sensitive little boy from crime alley trying to be tuff and make a couple of friends :(
