Batman Begins (DVD, 2005, Deluxe Edition)

This is, by far, the best of the Batman films. The new batmobile almost makes you tingle with envy. The future Commissioner Gordon said it best when he said "I gotta get me one of those!" Christian Bale's performance was the stand out of the film. Which says a lot when you see the big names of some of his co-stars. It kept my attention from beginning to end. I knew Bale would make the big time from the first time I saw him on film (Empire of the Sun) and am glad he is becoming a leading man. Say what you will about Nicholson's performance in Batman:The Movie, but this one leaves them all behind. As a Batman movie, it is, indeed, excellent. Thanks for reading. signed:CLW
