Batman Begins: The IMAX Experience (2005)

Cast: Christian Bale (Bruce Wayne/Batman), Michael Caine (Alfred), Liam Neeson (Henri Ducard), Katie Holmes (Rachel Dawes)
For complete info, see IMDb's Batman Begins page.

I've been a fan of Batman for years. Not the comics, but all the animated series, the old TV series, the first Batman movie (Jack Nicholson made a great Joker, didn't he?), etc. When I heard about Batman Begins, I thought there was great promise, but realized that they could crash and burn. (Did you see Batman & Robin? Unfortunately, I did.)

I went to see Batman Begins in IMAX, since I figured if the movie was well done, this would be the best way to appreciate it. I am very impressed with what Christopher Nolan did with the Batman story and I can't wait to see his next movie, even though I heard the Joker is going to be in it and I don't see how anyone can follow Jack Nicholson's Joker.

Since I haven't read the Batman comics, I don't know if this movie was close enough to those for the fans of the Batman comics to be happy. They definitely moved pretty far away from what I knew of the Ra's Al Ghul character's story, but the story, special effects, and acting were so great that it didn't bother me.

If you like Batman, you've probably already seen this movie and I hope you enjoyed it as much as my fiance and I did. If not, then you may still want to check it out, since it's a great action flick.

Grade: A-
