The Batman (2022)
8/10
Pretty good
7 March 2022
Ever since the trailer first rolled I have waited, ever since the first talks and rumors I have waited. And after that wait, a long wait. We have been gifted and our wishes been answered. We was given a 3 hour long of delightful, well acted and greatly produced film. Never once did I think of looking at the clock, never once wondered I how long until the credits rolled. It was an entertaining ride the whole way. The main villain , Riddler, was very well portrayed and I'm looking very forward to seeing him again. Making him similar and taking inspiration from the Zodiac killer was a clever move, and the costume design was, while not comic accurate, a fine fit for the movie and character. I personally view it more as his first suit, and as his crime spree kept going his flamboyant behavior increased. Next I want to touch on the costume design. Magnificent. Just so good. The bat suit was made to fit reality and looked the part. Also I thought they made huge improvements from the previous Nolan movies, in which the suit seemed almost too plastic and latex. It seemed to stand to much out, and felt sometimes cartoonish. But with Pattinson's suit, they used materials in which we would see a real vigilante use, leather, Kevlar and fabrics. The world they built in this film gave the right Gotham feeling, and not the typical New York type beat feel like in the Nolan movies, and also wasn't over the top gothic like in the Burton movies. And I liked the inclusion of places like the Iceberg Lounge. As said I felt the characters was greatly performed. And Robert Pattinson did an amazing portraying a damaged and towering Batman. The writers was smart enough to understand that Batman's presence is more telling then loud words. So many things have come to together to create this amazing flick, and I would highly recommend any person to view it in the cinema. The acting, sound design, directing, casting, and cinematography was all great. A worth while watch for anybody.
