Yesterday, I took a day off from work to run some errands and to see Batman Begins.
The summary in three words: It was great.
As a film designed to be a prelude to a new series of Batman movies, there's a lot of backstory to cover, and they do a remarkable job of both telling what seems to be rather dull information (but which, obviously, all makes Bruce who he is), without actually losing the attention of the viewer.
The new Batmobile? Bad-ass. As one of the characters in the movies even says, "I gotta get me one of them..."
If you haven't seen it yet, go see it. It's probably the best telling of the Batman story to date, even beating out Tim Burton's "not bad at all" version.
