Editorial Review: Product Description: Batman Begins explores the origins of the Batman legend and the Dark Knight's emergence as a force for good in Gotham. In the wake of his parents' murder disillusioned industrial heir Bruce Wayne (Christian Bale) travels the world seeking the means to fight injustice and turn fear against those who prey on the fearful. He returns to Gotham and unveils his alter-ego: Batman a masked crusader who uses his strength intellect and an array of high tech deceptions to fight the sinister forces that threaten the city.Format: BLU-RAY DISC Genre: ACTION/ADVENTURE/HEROES UPC: 085391115212 Manufacturer No: 111521 Amazon.com: Batman Begins discards the previous four films in the series and recasts the Caped Crusader as a fearsome avenging angel. That's good news, because the series, which had gotten off to a rousing start under Tim Burton, had gradually dissolved into self-parody by 1997's Batman & Robin. As the title implies, Batman Begins tells the story anew, when Bruce Wayne (Christian Bale) flees Western civilization following the murder of his parents. He is taken in by a mysterious instructor named Ducard (Liam Neeson in another mentor role) and urged to become a ninja in the League of Shadows, but he instead returns to his native Gotham City resolved to end the mob rule that is strangling it. But are there forces even more sinister at hand? Co-written by the team of David S. Goyer (a veteran comic book writer) and director Christopher Nolan (Memento), Batman Begins is a welcome return to the grim and gritty version of the Dark Knight, owing a great debt to the graphic novels that preceded it. It doesn't have the razzle dazzle, or the mass appeal, of Spider-Man 2 (though the Batmobile is cool), and retelling the origin means it starts slowly, like most "first" superhero movies. But it's certainly the best Bat-film since Burton's original, and one of the best superhero movies of its time. Bale cuts a good figure as Batman, intense and dangerous but with some of the lightheartedness Michael Keaton brought to the character. Michael Caine provides much of the film's humor as the family butler, Alfred, and as the love interest, Katie Holmes (Dawson's Creek) is surprisingly believable in her first adult role. Also featuring Gary Oldman as the young police officer Jim Gordon, Morgan Freeman as a Q-like gadgets expert, and Cillian Murphy as the vile Jonathan Crane. --David Horiuchi Batman at Amazon.com

Average Rating:
 Rating:  - This is not your father's Batman!!!This movie has a much more darker tone than its predecessors. It successfully tells how Batman was created and of Bruce Wayne's internal struggle with his alter ego. This HD-DVD has a stunning picture that does not disappoint. And, the story moves along quite nicely while keeping the movie within the realm of reality. If you are looking for a Batman movie that will entertain you from beginning to end, you've found it! Rating: - A great beginning!I love how they set up this classic comic book story. Batman is a very real person with lots of great toys and a passion for fighting injustice. With this movie they created a very dark Gothem and a very dark story...as it was meant to be. A vast improvement from where the films have been going until now. And there is no better way to watch this than on Blu-ray! Rating:  - Batman BeginsGreat Movie! Much more serious and well done than the recent Batman movies. (Except for the first two done by Burton) Rating: - Batman BeginsBought this to play on the Sony BDP-S350 1080p Blu-ray Disc Player I just purchased. The sound and video was excellent. Rating: - Great MovieLove the Nolan Batman Films! better than anyother franchise however getting it here was an issue, nearly 2 weeks late despite paying the extra cash to get it here BEFORE THAT, failed to provide any consignment details so i could track the item nice litte bonus in the bluray was the opening to dark knight Browse for similar items by category:
