Maybe the last act felt kinda like a strech but it serves two purposes: Having Batman realize what he's been creating (Riddler being the one hinting at him how he inspired him and the Riddler's cosplayer remarking that with "Vengance") and also, solidifying Batman as a hopeful hero, maybe in the next movie he could use "Justice" instead of Hope cause I feel like that Sups theme. I can even begin to state that Reeves could make the definitive Batman in live action, all the pieces are there, the seeds have been planted and now he has to continue to create this amazing world. More than anything I want Robin in this saga: screw Joker, Harley Quinn or whatever, we need Robin.
I'd be so surprised if we got Robin in this unless they age up Bruce so Robin can be like 18 or 19, lol. This is so grounded that it almost wouldn't make sense to include Robin here unless you really change his origin up.
@@OnMyMindEntertainment I Think we’ll get a Easter egg in the sequel, but we’ll actually see a 17 or 18 ish Robin in the last one. And by then, 7 or 8 years would’ve passed so Batman can be the wise and more mature version of himself confronting a deeply hurt, brass and vengeful Robin. Then he will fully understand what Alfred had to deal with when he took on the “Vengeance” persona.
This Batman being a culmination (and elevation imo) of the Batmen past is such a great point. It appears there's inspiration drawn from the games as well
I really like this film, and personally I think that the pacing was used well in this film. I also like that the riddler reminds me of the personality from the Arkham games. If you haven't played them, try to find the audio files that you can find in the games, they are really well made and listen to the riddler ones as they are one of the best to show how crazy he is like the movie.
Yo Mike! Long time no see, I haven't been able to watch videos much these days, but I'm still here! I 100% agree with you. As much as I LOVED the Christian Bale Batman movies (well, the first two lol), I think this is the best portrayal of Batman on screen so far. I absolutely loved this film, despite some of the logical gaps, which as usual, I didn't notice until I saw the pitch meeting lol. This is such a phenomenal Batman movie. So good, great villains, I loved the acting styles, I loved the absolute grit and darkness of it. So good.
6:22 He leads them to the roof of the building, how could Ryan miss that? Lol. Also, I’m pretty sure Falcone’s is pronounced, “FalconE”. Like the E is spoken.
He is. Vowels in Italian names are pronounceable. And in Arabic "Ras" is pronounced as it is written..."Ras". That was part of the Nolanverse. However, this movie is going after the comic book pronunciation. So Falcone minus E and if Ras going to show up he will be "Raysh".
Robert Pattinson’s Batman is by far the best version of a detective that’s ever been on the big screen. I like the fact that this younger Batman is still learning and improving along the way too.
Great review. Disagree with the ending of the Dark Knight--I have issues with that movie but the ending, in my opinion, was one of the best endings of any film. And the Two-Face content was built up throughout the movie, whereas this "second ending" with the flooding, etc. felt tacked on.
It was Joker in Arkham. My brother also thought it was Two Face as well but Matt Reeves said it was a Joker that Batman captured but hasn't fully adopted the persona
I love this movie too! And Pattenson is like the best live action Batman for me. Yeah, yeah, shout out to Keaton, but yeah I really enjoyed this portrayal. It feels like a character that's built to grow over a few movies as well.
This was fun 👍 But why is everyone trippin' about The Riddlers riddles being so simple now? His riddles were never about their inherent complexity, the complexity comes when trying to apply the answer to Batman / the current situation But yeah, the answers themselves are always 100% Googleable 😆🤷♂️😆
I think it would have been way better if Falcone hadn't been lying about Bruce's father. It makes for some really interesting material to grapple with. But of course the movie immediately backs off of it because we're not allowed to deal with real moral complexity in a blockbuster. I also feel like it would have been more interesting if The Riddler didn't go full evil. What if he was just killing gangsters? That allows the movie to ask how he's any different than Batman, and why Batman gets a monopoly on vigilante justice. But again, the movie backs away from that interesting idea by having him want to flood the city.
To me 2022 batman was *really* good, that said, I do really like The Dark Knight but in different way so I can't really choose between the two which is the best. But batman walking towards Penguin's car from the flame is maybe literally the coolest scene ever in movies. That said, I think I can say in my opinion this is the best Batman the character in movies.
I agree and disagree (respectfully) with you on some points (everyone is entitled to their own opinions). "The Batman" flaws I felt was the bullet immunity with no consequence yet was still about to jump/leap about like in tights (let alone holding himself up after shotgun blast to chest). The romance with Selena Kyle/catwoman felt a bit forced/rushed ... wasn't feeling the connection, but the biggest flaw was movie length ... it really felt that it dragged on, I looked at my watch a couple of times in the cinema. Dark knight I felt didn't drag on it felt the right length, but I agree with the Two-Face section could have been written better (Have Joker taunt him, disappear til after Joker is caught, then end the movie with Police/Batman not finding Harvey and the two cops who kidnapped him and Rachel get shot ... fade to credits).
Tis thing of making batman a bit grounded can be a problem sometimes. We know that some of the things batman does are naturally unrealistic, and when unrealistic stuff happens in the movie, it becomes a bit hard to suspend disbelief
I think that Ryan hit it for me, I didn't think that last act worked. It felt like the movie had ended and then "BUT WAIT.... THERE'S MORE!" lol I told everyone I felt that Pattinson looked like the most comfortable in the costume tbh I liked how the costume was not only the symbol, but it was also efficient. It had purpose. Almost everything on it had a specific reason for being there, including the Bat symbol on his chest. I think if I watch this more I'm going to like it more and more.
with the bomb scene, its not the fire or shrapnel that would do the most damage, its the concussive force to his internal organs. his armor blocks bullets, sure, but his suit is way too sleek to have any significant padding beneath needed to dampen the force of the explosion. Batman would die of something called "Blast Lung"
Affleck is my favorite Batman. The costume is realistic and comicbook correct, focusing on mobility over rubber or armor plating, and the vehicles are realistic, yet more sleek than the Bale vehicles. I also see Affleck as the best pretty boy of the Batmans.
I can’t wait until we see the full Bruce Wayne persona from Pattinson. If you haven’t seen Robert Pattinson in Tenet, I highly recommend you watch it because his character is probably the closest resemblance to what Robert’s Bruce Wayne will look and sound like minus the British accent. lol
This was definitely the most Batman live action film ever. I did think it went on too long. I felt after watching it, should have ended at the death of Falcone but they were like we need a action scene at the end. Like the riddlers plan went from killing corrupt officials to wacky drown the city villain plot at the end.
After watching it twice, I agree with Ryan completely as he captures all the issues I had with the film. I loved the dark noir feel of the film, it's basically Fincher's Seven meets Batman and I loved it. Robert Pattinson was excellent as Batman and maybe my favourite and most comic accurate Batman yet. The first two acts were great (barring the Catwoman subplot which I didn't care for) with a great premise of a murder mystery and the corruption aspect. It reminded me of great Batman stories like Mask of the Phantasm, Long Halloween and Court of Owls etc. especially the Wayne's and Arkham past which was great. But my problem with the film started when the main through-line of the film, which is the detective/investigation aspect of it falls flat when it was straightforward that Falcone was the big bad and the third act was a complete stretch, overdramatic and stupid as it only made the film unnecessarily overlong. Also, didn't buy the Cat and the Bat romantic angle cuz their chemistry is kinda non-existent in the film. I still rank it as one of the better Batman films but for me, TDK is still the best Batman film up to now.
I haven't seen the Batman but if he is abusing a drug to be stronger it's most likely venom like Bane would use. Which would mean this could be in a dark batman universe. I really hope it's the saint Batman arc where Batman gets hurt and gets Azrael to take over. He makes a badass iron man suit style Batman and removes batman's head or maybe his brain and puts it in a machine so he can break his will.
Sad to say that I cannot watch this reaction just yet, as I still need to see the movie first when my schedule clears, so I will leave a better comment in the future after I see it. While I am here though, I just wanted to ask if you could please react to the honest trailer for the 1966 Batman movie, since you are in the bat-mood. I also wanted to ask if you could please react to the Cosmonaut Variety Hour videos about the Spider man Sam Raimi trilogy and the amazing Spider-Man duology respectively, as I genuinely think that would be a nice thing to try. Then again, I think you are doing great without my input, so please don't think I am forcing you. With that being said, please consider watching them if you have the time, and I wish you the best of luck in the future. :)
My favorite Batman by far. My only concern is in comparing the extreme Batman and Riddler represent, they really end up showing Riddler was right to an extent - like not like a villain going too far but that the only conceivable alternative to a corrupt system is to literally destroy it with floods and murder. Like there’s so much worthy of valid criticism in what Batman is as a character especially as a more realistic one, in the universe, and the movie does that so well. I do worry it walks the line The Boys does however (which is mostly fine), they critique cops, megacorporations, scientology and more than anything the extreme adeptness capitalism will co-opt the messages of progress despite perpetuating injustice. Like with Starlight’s new suit, and the Citizen Starlight movie - but y’know we still get the sex appeal on screen and critiques the power of corporations whilst making money from it- it literally is all the shit it critiques. They didn’t let the post-third act breathe past the bad very much and focus on the turning point as tragedy, and how Batman is just a man and despite his efforts (to beat people up rather than idk charity) he at best can hope to make things less bad and that his struggle to do that is heroic, noble and does make a difference- which is an incredibly poignant and important message for folks to live with in this age. Love from a fellow Texan lol. Depending on its focus in the sequel and given the other themes that were heavily coating the scene in the Garden it may not have the effect I saw on those I would worry about. I just hope it doesn’t scan as Thirteen Reasons Why for terrorism, because the terrorists were correct and got what they wanted.
I’m the minority but Ben affleck is my favourite his older worn down Batman was totally unique and he nailed it he was the only good part of BVS and not getting his own film is one of the biggest crimes in movie history. But Pattinson also did a great job as a younger Bruce Wayne
He absolutely was the best thing about BVS. I liked that he was a different version of Bruce and Batman that we had never scene before on the big screen. Also, he was the most comic accurate size wise as Batman.
Yes exactly I agree 100% 😃😃 I will say this: I’ve read very few Batman comics, spider-man is the character I love and have read since my childhood. So when people say they love the movie cuz they feel it’s the best Batman representation from the comics they have a level of understanding I don’t have I can only judge what I see on screen
It was a great portrayal from Robert Pattinson (John Turturro, too), but Batman Begins is still tops for me. Because they focused so much on Batman as a detective, there just wasn't any interesting adventure story to it. He didn't perform any spectacular rescues or avert any dangerous situations, and his only fights were against unidentified crazy people.
I could see that. But I feel like since this is a Batman in his early years, we have to see him struggle to eventually get to Prime Batman/Bruce Wayne we know. I love Batman Begins, but outside of his mansion being burned down, he does everything else right. He doesn't really seem like a year one Batman in that movie. I do think this movie may be a little too realistic in some aspects for some that want a more action heavy Batman story.
@OnMyMindEntertainment in my opinion it really sucks Season 1 is a lot better, voice acting, sound effects and pacing is top notch It's actually an audio drama, not an audiobook so Ryan was right they made a batman production so dark it's all audio lol
My favorite will always and forever be Batman and Robin. Not because of the quality or the closeness to the source material...I just loved the pure camp. Another one of my favorite terrible movies is Street Fighter, if that gives you any idea of my campy taste hahahah
Finally saw the movie, and honestly, if they'd taken out the Batman aspect, it would have been a much better crime-thriller. Pattinson did _okay_ as Batman, but he sh*t the bed as Bruce Wayne. He had the makeup and the hair and vibe of a full emo Myspace kid, the only thing missing was the dark poetry and cutting himself. Also found it steange how Ryan called them twitch commenters, when they were definitely more inline with Twitter's cancel culture mob. But then I don't watch twitch, and haven't heard much about it except for "gamer girls", so maybe cancel culture is invading there too.
In my opinion it's not just only the best Batman movie I think it's one of the best movies I've ever seen. All of the actors shine . but damn Robert Patterson will probably end up being my favorite Batman
All of those people on the road died because Penguin is a terrible human with no concern for the welfare of other people and went out of his way to make people crash. And at the time, I just figure he injected himself with a handy cocktail of adrenaline and painkillers. Antibiotics could be part of it too.
Pattinson was hilarious as Batman and Bruce Wayne, because he always looked both 17 and 72 all at the same time, 100% of the time. He was as bad as Kilmer with zero chemistry with Kravitz. How do you make someone like her look bad, seriously
I know I'm seriously in the minority, but I did not enjoy this movie. To me it was a task to finish, it was overlong and boring, no where in the class of the dark knight trilogy in my opinion. Riddlers whole instant turn of motive just made no sense. But that is why there a infinite movies out there to cater to various taste.
@@OnMyMindEntertainment yeah nothing personal to the people who liked it and I can't answer for everyone else who walked out but I just hated the movie too many plot holes and things that didn't make sense
I didn’t really like the whole goose chase for the rat with wings. It felt like it dragged on for far too long and didn’t really lead anywhere other than Riddler shooting Falcone. Plus, the whole Thomas Wayne thing was pretty dumb. I prefer the way the Telltale series dealt with the “sins of the father”.
Maybe the last act felt kinda like a strech but it serves two purposes: Having Batman realize what he's been creating (Riddler being the one hinting at him how he inspired him and the Riddler's cosplayer remarking that with "Vengance") and also, solidifying Batman as a hopeful hero, maybe in the next movie he could use "Justice" instead of Hope cause I feel like that Sups theme.

More than anything I want Robin in this saga: screw Joker, Harley Quinn or whatever, we need Robin.
Couldn't have said it better myself buddy.
But Barry Koegan's looks interesting and intriguing , that's just me though.
I'd be so surprised if we got Robin in this unless they age up Bruce so Robin can be like 18 or 19, lol. This is so grounded that it almost wouldn't make sense to include Robin here unless you really change his origin up.

His jawline deflected that explosion in the Church. That’s what I believe anyway.
🤣😂🤣
Does anyone else think the "Green juice" is going to be used as the chemical that creates Bane in the sequel. Kind of like they did in Batman & Robin
That’s what I thought too
Immediately, unless they say it's some adrenaline thing he's done, I'm in complete agreement.
i definitely think its just adrenaline, because thats something batman has used before
That's a really cool idea I thought It was just a adrenalin shot or something but i like your thing way more
It’s clearly supposed to be Venom. He injects himself gets a massive adrenaline and strength boost and goes mad for a few secs.
I think that "Green Juice" in some way is going to connect to Bane in one of the sequels.
this had the best cinematography out of all the batman movies it’s so good
I'm with ya there!!! So many great shots in this.
This Batman being a culmination (and elevation imo) of the Batmen past is such a great point. It appears there's inspiration drawn from the games as well
Lmao so many good moments in this one!! The ouch ouch ouch one had me dying! 🤣🤣🤣
Lol!!! I love when he adds stuff like that. Really downplays the seriousness of the actual scenes🤣
I really like this film, and personally I think that the pacing was used well in this film. I also like that the riddler reminds me of the personality from the Arkham games.

This was funny 🤣🤣. But Mike I'm waiting on the Advanced Screening skits. They were so hilarious 🤣🤣🤣
6:22 He leads them to the roof of the building, how could Ryan miss that? Lol.
Also, I’m pretty sure Falcone’s is pronounced, “FalconE”. Like the E is spoken.

However, this movie is going after the comic book pronunciation. So Falcone minus E and if Ras going to show up he will be "Raysh".
I prefer the comic way of saying his last name without the E being pronounced.
I think it was also said that way in the Gotham tv show.
Robert Pattinson’s Batman is by far the best version of a detective that’s ever been on the big screen. I like the fact that this younger Batman is still learning and improving along the way too.

What's even more trippy to me is that Googleable is a word.

I mean, did his Batmobile even side dodge? 😆🤷♂️😆🤷♂️😆
@@MrHartApart yeah, I'm 38, use to fight that kinda crap ALL the time... now I just lean into the ridiculousness... y'all got me 😆
@@briantidwell651 lol, I've learned a lot of goofy language at 36 from gen Z, fr no cap.
Yes! My man! This movie is trapped in a 3 way tie with Dark Knight and Mask of the Phantasm as my fave Bat-Flicks!
Mask of the Phantasm is my overall number one, lol. I don't know if that will ever be topped to be honest.
“Damn, this guy’s quick…”
The “green juice” was probably concentrated adrenaline
I thought it was venom

Tis thing of making batman a bit grounded can be a problem sometimes. We know that some of the things batman does are naturally unrealistic, and when unrealistic stuff happens in the movie, it becomes a bit hard to suspend disbelief

The Batman audiobook; You should check out Batman Unburied season 1, not season 2
What was wrong with Season 2?
@OnMyMindEntertainment in my opinion it really sucks
Season 1 is a lot better, voice acting, sound effects and pacing is top notch
It's actually an audio drama, not an audiobook so Ryan was right they made a batman production so dark it's all audio lol
That was great fake hair that Jeffrey Wright had as Gordon. I had already seen him without it and still got fooled while watching the movie
Lol
@@OnMyMindEntertainment that’s how you know it’s good fake hair
Also, the one thing I didn't get was why they spent money on makeup to make Colin Farrell look like Elias Koteas. 🤔

Pattinson did _okay_ as Batman, but he sh*t the bed as Bruce Wayne. He had the makeup and the hair and vibe of a full emo Myspace kid, the only thing missing was the dark poetry and cutting himself.
Also found it steange how Ryan called them twitch commenters, when they were definitely more inline with Twitter's cancel culture mob. But then I don't watch twitch, and haven't heard much about it except for "gamer girls", so maybe cancel culture is invading there too.
In my opinion it's not just only the best Batman movie I think it's one of the best movies I've ever seen. All of the actors shine . but damn Robert Patterson will probably end up being my favorite Batman
LOL!!!! Saying it kind of stings a little, lol!! Because I love Keaton and I like Bale in the role, but Pattinson killed this.
I saw this movie twice
Pattinson is THE best Batman 👍🖤👍
I'm kinda tired of the brooding Bruce Wayne persona
The guy playing Joker at the end is the same guy that played Druig in The Eternals... He sucks.
All of those people on the road died because Penguin is a terrible human with no concern for the welfare of other people and went out of his way to make people crash.
And at the time, I just figure he injected himself with a handy cocktail of adrenaline and painkillers. Antibiotics could be part of it too.
i still think the dark night rises is better, the one with the joker
So, The Dark Knight.
Pattinson was great as Batman, but I want to see more of his Bruce Wayne personality
If they do a trilogy, I think that aspect of him will grow in each movie.
Pattinson was hilarious as Batman and Bruce Wayne, because he always looked both 17 and 72 all at the same time, 100% of the time. He was as bad as Kilmer with zero chemistry with Kravitz. How do you make someone like her look bad, seriously
I know I'm seriously in the minority, but I did not enjoy this movie. To me it was a task to finish, it was overlong and boring, no where in the class of the dark knight trilogy in my opinion. Riddlers whole instant turn of motive just made no sense. But that is why there a infinite movies out there to cater to various taste.
When I went and watched it 3/4 of the people in there including me walked out halfway through the movie looks like I still made the right decision
lol what?
Really??
@@OnMyMindEntertainment yeah nothing personal to the people who liked it and I can't answer for everyone else who walked out but I just hated the movie too many plot holes and things that didn't make sense
First
I didn’t really like the whole goose chase for the rat with wings. It felt like it dragged on for far too long and didn’t really lead anywhere other than Riddler shooting Falcone. Plus, the whole Thomas Wayne thing was pretty dumb. I prefer the way the Telltale series dealt with the “sins of the father”.
