Take a peek :-
In his second year fighting crime, Batman uncovers corruption in Gotham City that connects to his own family while facing a serial killer known as the Riddler.
It's been 10 years since Batman graced the big screen in his own solo film, and director Matt Reeves missed no opportunity to put Batman front and center in the aptly titled The Batman. Led by Robert Pattinson as Batman, the film is ambitious in scope as a character- and mystery-driven film, delving into the Dark Knight's psyche as he was pushed to the limit in the early years of his crime-fighting career. Whether you're a fan of Batman, superhero movies or suspenseful thrillers, The Batman has something for everyone and will leave you wanting more.
Set in Batman's early years, Bruce Wayne is solely focused on his mission as the guardian of Gotham, so much so that his life (much less his playboy persona) as Bruce Wayne is non-existent. Batman is Bruce's obsession and reason for being, but when a serial killer begins targeting Gotham's elite and exposes their corruption, leaving clues specifically for Batman, he must confront his own darkness before it fully consumes him.
Pattinson gives a fantastic performance as the Dark Knight. Throughout the film, he conveys Batman's intelligence, determination, stoicism and most of all anger quite well. The amount of emotion he can convey with just his body language and eyes is impressive, especially since Pattinson spends most of his time in the Batsuit. Make no mistake, The Batman is a Batman movie first and foremost, and the superhero appears in costume on screen more than any other incarnation. The way Pattinson emphasizes the use of his eyes says a lot more than some of his lines, creating a great combination of his physical and vocal acting.
The second lead stars Zoë Kravitz as Selina Kyle/Catwoman, who shares great chemistry with Pattinson. Kravitz embodies the role of femme fatale quite well, but shows her own agency as Selina, with her mysterious background and motivations that capture the character's anti-hero status. Like Pattinson, Kravitz does a lot with his body language and has almost as many disguises as Batman, giving each a slightly different personality as they help Batman investigate for their own reasons. Jeffrey Wright's Gordon gets plenty of time to shine as he has a pretty big supporting role. She shares a close partnership with Batman where they are shown to truly be equals and need each other. Andy Serkis isn't in the film as much as Alfred, but despite his limited screen time, he uses every moment to provide insight into Bruce's mind and his own take on the case, while also portraying the father-son dynamic he often shares with Bruce.
Rounding out the cast on the villain side are Colin Farrell as Oswald Cobblepot/The Penguin and John Tuturro as Carmine Falcone, Gotham City's two biggest mobsters. Farrell is almost unrecognizable as The Penguin, not least because of the heavy prosthetics he wears, as he embodies the Penguin's swaggering arrogance, while Tuturro plays the confident and menacing mob boss with just a smile and a soft, cool voice. The crowning achievement for the villain, however, is Paul Dano as the Riddler, recast as a notorious serial killer targeting Gotham's elite.
Dano gives quite an unnerving performance as the masked assassin while also showing his intelligence and superior attitude towards those who are either corrupt or unable to keep up with his tracks. One of the difficulties many comic book writers have cited in using the Riddler is the use of riddles, whether existing or of their own creation, but The Batman embraces the Riddler's penchant for riddles and puns quite well, creating a villain that will keep you hooked. he guesses and is always one step ahead, which Dano shows perfectly. His performance will likely go down as one of the best supervillain performances in the superhero genre and would be right at home in a David Fincher film.
In this context, The Batman is heavily influenced by film noir with its dark atmosphere and emphasis on mystery. This is very much a superhero adventure detective story that tests Batman's skills as a detective. The detective point of view is a welcome change and brings something new to the table, and Matt Reeves and his co-writers Peter Craig and Mattson Tomlin create a very gripping and captivating mystery for the audience to solve alongside Batman, Selina and Gordon. While gritty and grounded isn't exactly new ground for the Batman creators to explore, having already done so with Tim Burton's Batman and Christopher Nolan's Dark Knight trilogy, Reeves' approach feels fresh in how it feels like a psychological thriller with its exploration Batman's psyches. and wonders how much good he's really doing for Gotham—as both Batman and Bruce Wayne—with corruption so rampant.
Batman's development culminates on a touching and inspiring note, becoming one of the best characters in the film franchise.
While the focus is on the detective tone, the action throughout the film is amazing. Fights are fluid, clear and often brutal as Batman holds his punches short. The action, as well as the gruesome nature of the Riddler's murders, pushes the PG-13 rating to the absolute maximum without going into R territory. There's also one of the best Batmobile sequences in all of the Batman movies, as the more grounded Batmobile is still a must-see. Greig Fraser's cinematography is simply beautiful in its imagery, whether it's Batman and Catwoman standing on a Gotham rooftop soaking up the sunset, or Batman walking into Penguin's club and destroying his thugs. Combined with Michael Giacchino's subtle and beautiful score, every aspect of Batman fires on all cylinders.
The Batman is a masterpiece with how the acting, writing, cinematography, music and more come together perfectly in a moving, mysterious, action-driven, character-driven story. Pattinson gives one of his best performances as Batman by delving into what draws him to him, while the supporting cast of Kravitz, Wright, Dano and Serkis pay tribute to him and the film's themes. Not only is it one of the best Batman movies ever made, but one of the best in the entire superhero genre, it's likely to please Batman fans and the general public alike.
What people are saying about this movie:-
(1) Detective Batman on top! Great story. Just as dark a universe as we've come to expect from DC. The bleak, gritty, dark tone of this movie is exactly what I wanted. Just when you think the movie is over, there's more. Beautiful cinematography. Great score.
(2) Everything about this movie is trying too hard - the over-dramatic score, the long shots of the characters' faces, the over-the-top acting, the convoluted crime story - it all looks like it's trying to win an Oscar at any moment.
It's too long, drawn out and the story feels like a generic crime saga where the Batman universe is shoehorned in.This movie isn't a masterpiece, but it makes a lot of effort to make you think it is!
(3) The Disappointing Batman was not a fan of Emo Batman. Sorry Robert Pattinson. The film was just a little lackluster and felt like it was trying too hard to imitate Christopher Nolan and David Fincher. In the end, the mystery was a bit convoluted and not worth the three hours of what was mostly a run-of-the-mill superhero movie that lacked much excitement or suspense. The Riddler limped a bit too. I have already forgotten most of the movie and the characters. Stunning.
