Dark knight. Review on Batman Begins Movie

The screenplay, the scenes, the cinematography, the background score, the dialogue delivery, almost everything is so well knit and smooth that not for a moment, anything seems redundant. Christopher's Nolan has done a superlative job making a super hero as close to reality as possible and every character is believable. On the drama scale, this one could very well not score as high as other Batman or other super hero movies. But, you could definitely watch this one for its intellectual value and have a taste of good cinema. The good guys, the bad guys, the cameo characters, all of them have been given a dimension are not just sketched out.

Hans Zimmer in collaboration with James Newton Howard has once again worked melody with his soundtracks, perfectly capturing the suave, Bruce and the Dark Knight’s energy. Christian Bale's Batman is as believable as his duplicity of playboy Bruce Wayne.

Katie Holmes comes across as cool, emotional and yet confident DA Executive as Rachel Dawes. Liam Neeson is no surprise and a treat to watch, as a Ducard, a senior member of League of Shadows, that you almost agree with him on his ideas of crime should not going unpunished. Michael Caine as Alfred, highly accented and composed and loyal butler, Morgan Freeman as Lucius Fox are as always reliable. Cillian Murphy as Dr.Crane has given quite a performance as a maniacal psychiatrist.

Batman Begins is a story of evolution of young Bruce Wayne from a scared-of-bats kid through the murder of his parents, for which he considers himself responsible, on to his training to become the Dark Knight. As a young man, believing he needs to live like criminals in order to understand them better, he turns to the underworld and gets himself in a prison. (This is where the movie unfolds) Ducard picks him up as an able candidate to be trained under the tutelage of Ra's Al Ghul and the League of Shadows. After some tough training, Wayne returns to Gotham (Chicago according to the producers, was the best and fitted perfectly for the purpose) with the intent of fighting the corrupt system, which has eaten up the city he was born in and loved, and where his empire – Wayne Empire, also is being used for the support of the very system.

Every action, every scene and every thing that is in the movie has been constructed logically. One can justify, everything right from the way Bat mobile works to the way Bat suit flies. Even the action, chase sequences do not look foolish and dramatic.

The only dramatic thing in the whole plate was Batman’s Voice when he is Bat suit! That definitely could be kinda funny!

This one is by far the best super hero movie we have seen in recent times. The whole product reflects the commitment, hard work and the conviction, with which this was done.

Definitely Watch able!
