      For the first half I honestly thought it was trying to be camp like Adam West's Batman. That first scene where he finds the thumb and goes "ohh... for thumb DRIVE!" reminded me of this scene and I could not stop thinking about how stupid the "detective" scenes were until I walked out

        They should let Snyder finish up with his grimdark batman but I'd really like to see something influenced by Adam West and 60's pop art after all this.

      Probably because it was garbage.

      Long movie with glacial pace and the characters still felt underdeveloped.
      Batman and Catwoman were unlikable.
      The villains were boring and shitty.
      The detective work was kindergarten tier.
      The action was sparse and lame.

      Still not as bad as BvS or Justice League (both version) but it's extremely fricking close.

      it was mediocre and meandering
      the attempts at being cinematic were undercut by its own goofy script
      I wanted to like it but there really isn't much there, and it's stretched out egregiously

      I thought it was better than TDK by a longshot
      TDK's answer to vigilantism was quit because it could cause crime.
      The Batman's answer was fix the negative aspects of yourself and help other people, and if it inspires some bad, frick it and keep fighting.
      I thought it was awesome.

That being said, this is a contrarian board that likes to shit on everything, I mean its Cinemaphile lots of angry/trolling types here. People here defend Snyder ffs and his Batman that kills people, and shots his movies with a lame filter that looks like a cutscene from a ps3 game for lords sake

        completely agree
        it's clever how they answer the vigilante question
        by changing his motive, which is what riddler took inspiration from, batman can now only inspire copycats based on the mere fact that he is a vigilante, and those that are inspired will either die due to inexperience, make no impact, or will become murderers, and none of those are Batman's fault. Those are choices made by the people and the only thing they can say Batman did to inspire them is the mere presence of a vigilante, or Batman's mission to enact justice, which is basically just another way to say "vigilante"

          For the first film in a series, it triumphs over Begins, which is a boring pretentious-fest with shit dialogue and an even shittier third act. I skip a massive chunk of that flick everytime I watch it because it's so dull.

          Reeves clearly took inspiration from Zero Year more than Year One. Year One is in the design aesthetics, but Zero Year represents the characters.

    Reeves wanted to do something new with Batman in cinema. I respect that, but the audience did not. Maybe because the thriller itself is not engaging enough. It doesn't get into your mind like Zodiac. A thriller must provoke appetite. Seduce. The Batman doesn't have that in the thriller aspect, it has that in what Batman does as a vigilante (Combat, Batmobile) and those moments are brief because the movie is a thriller.

    Another point against, but on a personal level, is that Reeves didn't have the balls to say more explicitly that the green militia was a direct consequence of the systematic corruption of the city's political and judicial body. Real Mayor was there to redeem, I mean what the frick step on the fricking gas pedal.

        What the frick are you even talking about, the movie for the first tame gave up the boring dihotomy of Batman superhero and Bruce playboy. Pattison went edgy all the way, and he played it great. You can argue about the degree but it was the least safest Batman since fricking 89. The movie took tons of risks

    It had the best Batman aesthetics, best Gotham by a longshot. Pattison nailed the "tormented violent freak" they were going with this Batman. With better script it would be the best Batman. The batmobile kicked ass, Selina was sexy and Kravitz nailed her part. Dano was cringeKINO, Penguin was great. Action scenes were amazing, I mean the fricking batmobile was really good. I wish it had a better script, honestly the movie looses it in the third act, can't argue with that tho. I'm vengeance/10

    Because its just a really average movie. It only got somewhat good ratings because its been like a decade since the last batman movie. If this dogshit movie was released one year after TDKR it would get a solid 2/10 on every single review page. Boring, uninspiring, dull, soulless and empty as frick. Literally not one memorable scene, not one memorable moment from any actor, not one memorable piece of dialogue or even soundtrack. Just 3+ hours of wasted time
