Batman Begins (2005)

Old and timeless story of Batman that won the hearts of both kids and adults. If you are among those millions of fans of Batman movie series then you must see Batman Begins to know the very beginning of how Bruce Wayne picked his way of becoming Batman and leading a double life. Just to start with, you are welcome to have a look at Batman Begins movie review to make sure this film is definitely the one worth watching.

Batman Begins is one of the best from Batman movie collection and the only one revealing the motives of Bruce Wayne (Christian Bale) for taking a bat mask. Christopher Nolan made a great job to resurrect Batman after his previous failure Batman & Robin, emphasizing on realism and humanity wrapped in dark, gloomy tones. The leading character is so graphic that it's hard to believe it was taken from a comic book, rather it seems he comes from a real life. Feeling of fear is what tears many people, even such a super hero like Batman. I like the idea of making him more real, not too perfect and flawless.

It would be a mistake not to say a word about the cast, as it's awesome! Liam Neeson, known as Ra's al Ghul in Batman Begins, is the head of the League of Shadow and Batman's most evil enemy. He is self-restrained, brutal yet very intelligent, I would say a decent adversary to contrast Bruce Wayne. Alfred (Michael Caine) is a true example of faithfulness and friendship. Wayne owns his butler a lot, as he is the only one who knows the truth about Batman, keeps it in secret and supports Wayne. Lucius Fox starred by Morgan Freeman is a highly moral and responsible manager of Wayne Enterprise.

Before watching, be ready for a real surprise from Christopher Nolan – this is the style of the movie. Starting from Wayne's infancy to his coming to age, turning from a blayboy to the fighter for justice, every scene is excellent and clear. The city he fights for seems to live its own life, and it's hard to comprehend the epoch as there are no signs of retro time or present days. What complements the movie perfectly is the music and visual contrasts, from gloomy, dull Gotham to snow-white mountain hills.

So, if you are a big Christopher Nolan fan, his Batman Begins and The Dark Knight in particular, then it's time to shift from reading this Batman Begins movie review to watching the film and leaving your comments afterwards.
