Honestly, after the HUGE success of The Dark Knight, I think this movie gets lost in the shuffle and is kinda underrated. I think it's the most rewatchable of the trilogy, not best, but most rewatchable. Like I can put this movie on and watch it anytime
This trilogy is my all-time favorite movie trilogy. I LOVE Batman Begins. Fun fact (in my opinion): The bit in the plane between Bruce and Alfred about Bruce being "brought back from the dead" after being "declared dead" for 7 years is a meta reference to the last Batman movie that was theatrically released, as well as the one that "killed" the Batman franchise in Batman and Robin. Really hilarious if you think about it. To me, Christian Bale is my all-time favorite Bruce Wayne/Batman interpretation. Sorry you couldn't enjoy this movie, Cris.
Batman begins is my favorite of the Christopher Nolan trilogy. I’m not sure what my favorite Batman movie ever is. I love every movie to a degree because I love Batman as a character
The problem with this film is that Nolan kind of changed his mind with the vision he wanted after this film. He wanted to make a hyper realistic/blade runner inspired Batman. However, by the dark knight, he had decided to dip into the “ultra realistic” side more so than the “blade runner inspired” side. So “Batman Begins” feels weirdly different within the trilogy.
I strongly suspect that the dystopian fantasy Gotham of the first film was less Nolan's idea than the studio's expectation, much like the Batmobile and the painfully impractical rubber suit from the earlier films. Like most middle chapters in trilogies, I think The Dark Knight shows the director at his most creatively free. He was allowed to abandon more of the old Burton baggage, like the comic-book style Gotham, Batman's immobilizing cowl, and the over-the-top villain, and really see if he could put this comic book superhero in what could pass for the real world. Of course, by the third film, over-the-top villains were back.
Begins and Rises have the most comic book feel of the trilogy and The Dark Knight doesn't feel like a comic book film at all, feels more like Michael Mann's Heat which isn't a bad thing!
@@rottensquid What? in the third movie we have Bane, who doesn't have his Venom and is just a trained guy with a mask, and Catwoman is just a skilled thief unlike the Catwoman from Batman Returns.
@@megamikethemovieman make the movie feel like a real Batman movie and not a crime movie with just Batman as a guest. To me, Burton's movies are the only movies that feel like they're straight out of the Batman comics, my wish is that in the near future there will finally be a movie that accept the fantastical tone of Batman: The Animated Series and the Burton movies.
@@wogardrodriguez9699 that makes sense. I think the new Batman movie will be a really good one. I reviewed Batman begins on my channel to if you would like to see, I do lots of superhero content.
@@megamikethemovieman I just think he has an actual story arc unlike TDK where it feels like any character could’ve been substituted for Batman and it would be the same.
So this movie came out when I was 5 and I didn’t go back and watch it until I was 11 or 12 and my god when I saw that joker tease I could just feel the amount of hype that scene must have brought on. No other movie has done it better for me.
13:15 To be fair, the only reason that the Michael Keaton Bruce Wayne uses a bat motif is b/c of the title. This movie at least explores the character's phobia.
I understand your opinion bro, but for a lot of the "issues" you have with this movie don't bother me at all, and I feel that even though this is a more grounded, realistic version of Batman not only does it limit some things Christopher Nolan could do but it opened up more opportunities with this movie. But what you must remember is that this movie is surrounded on the concept of "Fear", like all these films, TDK "Chaos", TDKR "Pain", and this film really does well with the aspect of fear. But I respect your opinion and agree with some of your opinions. Awesome Video.
Good point! And yes you’re right if you have an amazing story and characters all the problems can be ignored and that is how I feel about The Dark Knight. So good I ignore the bad
Unfortunately Cris, I disagree completely with you on this. Bale is one of, if not the best Batman I’ve ever known. But we all have own opinions and we can all respect each other’s opinion. Much love for these reviews, these are all great!
I totally agree, I think Scarecrow should’ve been the main villain. In my opinion he is Batman’s best villain. I really hope he’s a main villain in the Matt Reeves films.
@@About_a_Bag Well as you can assume, I was intentionally being dramatic 😂. Think of it as sort of a hyperbole. I wasn't literally about to pass out from laughter.
3C, you did it again. I love this film after understanding the film for a while and I honestly enjoy Scarecrow. But one thing for sure, ‘89 Batman film and The Dark Knight Rises will always be my favorite Batman films.
You know Cris I'm with you on this one. I've always respected these films but have never resonated with them. I think the ultra-realistic tone of the film takes a lot of the uniqueness out of the batman mythos. In the previous movies Gotham was so unique and was aa character in it of itself in these movies the city looks and feels so generic.
The sets in the first one where crazy the slum where the slums it wasn’t dc it wants newyork or Chicago it was Gotham I could understand why crime alley was so dangerous it looked dangerous but it was Easy to imagine the realism’s gave way to humanity and relatability of the character it made the stakes feel reel where ever more worried about Batman failing or Losing it did a good job of making you feel the weight of the stakes
I think this issue speaks to Nolan's unique approach to film. His stories always track technically, but I often don't feel particularly connected to the characters, and the Dark Knight trilogy is no exception. When Rachel dies in the second film, I understand why Bruce and Harvey are destroyed by it, but I don't feel it myself. It doesn't resonate for me. It's the same with his other films, like inception and The Prestige. I am witness to the magicians' obsession, or Dom Cobb's grief over his wife, but I don't feel it with the characters. That changed, I think, with Interstellar. It may not be as good or clever a movie as the others, but it lets you sit with the main characters and feel their emotions deeply. Dunkirk did that as well, using very little dialog, but just letting you experience the events along with the characters. Instead of explaining, it just lets you in. Tenet was back to the old routine of swiss-watch concepts; impossibly complex and brilliant, but quite cold and mechanical.
@@plusultra7746 your icon and name. I’m a big fan too. I reviewed Batman begins as well and all the classic Batman movies too if you would like to check those out in my channel my friend? I trust your opinions.
Athought this is my personal favorite out of Nolan's trilogy (it was the most "comic booky" one out of the three), I do agree with pretty much everything you said. Being too realistic hurts the world of Batman which is why Batman himself is the weakest element of these movies. However this trilogy has the best Gordon and the best Alfred.
i admire the way you give your breakdowns and your criticisms; clear with your thoughts without sounding condescending as if your opinions are held higher. one of the more respectful and genuine movie channels out there.
Same! Like I respect the realistic elements from Batman Begins and the rest of The Dark Knight trilogy. But I still got a soft spot for the older Batman films as well.😂
I was born before this movie and at the age of 13 I found the DvD of Batman Begins and let me just say it gave me hope that Christopher Nolan brought this version of Batman which he did because in 2005 or so DC was trying to do a cinematic universe with early 2000's DC movies like Superman Returns, The Dark Knight, The Dark Knight Rises along with others, But still, At least Christopher Nolan did his best.
I just rewatched this movie yesterday and it was amazing! It’s probably my least favorite Dark Knight movie but it’s still very good. Love the introduction of Bale’s Batman in this movie.
The dark knight Trilogy are my favorite Batman films I can’t imagine anyone but Christian bale as Batman so far no one has even come close yes even Robert Pattinson who many people see as the batman god even though the Batman isn’t out yet but that’s just me
I’m literally watching this movie right now! I was wrong to doubt this film after rewatching it! it’s a pretty well written movie of the becoming of the Batman! 🦇🦇🦇🦇 Man I love how Christopher Nolan directs the Batmobile scene! 😈
Yea one thing about the Nolan trilogy was the choreography for me and while we could get a better glimpse outside of Batman begins it still wasn't what batman should've been combat wise
Yes yes! Right on time Chris , By the way I really like Batman begins I thought it was a really good way to restart the franchise after the mess they made
I feel the same way about these movies the same you feel about those early batman movies Chris. These movies were my introduction to the batman character and his rogues gallery. I remember owning a DVD copy of the dark knight when I was like 7 or 8 years old because I loved it so much. Now at the age of 15 (16 in may) I find myself appreciating them more and more everything I rewatch them. Even though I love the early batman movies(minus Batman and Robin) these hold a special place in my heart that I'll never forget. Can't wait for The Batman on Friday!!!!!
@@megamikethemovieman the whole water pollution plot line felt (to me) out of place, the Tumbler’s rampage of Gotham felt a bit out of character, and the action was quite poorly shot and edited.
I haven't watched Batman Begins since I seen in theaters. But looking back at it, I am glad Christopher Nolan was able to take Batman in a different direction than the previous Batman films of the 90's.
Hey Chris, remember me from your Batman and robin review. I’m back! And I wanted to tell you to keep up the good work. Your my favorite RUclipsr right now and thanks for being there when I’m sad happy or any emotions.
The DarkNight trilogy is my favorite Batman movies. The villains where done right, but I do would had want for Batman to kill in this movie. One of the reasons I like this trilogy is cause the movie felt real, like it was happening in the real world. It just felt realistic. I actually wish they had continued this universe. I hope that in the next Batman movie does as good as this trilogy.
My favorite 2 so far are The Dark Knight & Batman Begins. Such great movies. Fight choreography was lacking in all previous versions. The warehouse scene im B vs S was the best but I want to see more martial arts and skills. Hopefully The Batman brings it with that.
Personally, this is my favourite Batman movie to date. I definitely do agree with you that the fighting wasn't great in this movie, let alone the entire trilogy but Nolan's take on the character and the combination of humanity and realism is something that hadn't been done with superhero movie until Batman Begins and inspired a bunch of other film makers including Jon Favreau when he was directing Iron Man and Marc Webb when he was directing TASM 1.
The fighting was definitely a low point for the entire trilogy, though it slowly improved with each film. But it seemed clear that Nolan didn't love that particular kind of movie spectacle. It feels perfunctory and uninspired, like a necessary chore the film had to go through to get to what Nolan felt was important, the human qualities. Though one could argue that these films illustrate how much less important fight spectacle is in even an action film than rich story, coherent themes, and real drama. A brilliant story with bad fight scenes can still be regarded as a great film. But a clumsy, incoherent story with brilliant fight scenes, not so much.
When you compare the fight scenes of the Batfleck vs Baleman it’s not even close. But the story and the characters and the acting help you overlook these things
I have watched Batman begins probably about 4 or 5 times and I love it. It's a very good inspirational movie. The Nolan trilogy was great but one big problem that I hated was how some of the villains went out for instance Bane getting blasted by Catwoman and scarecrow getting tasered while on his horse and riding off,I mean here comes the scarecrow with his damn horse breathing fire and I thought it was about to go down but then he gets tasered and goes out like a chump. I saw it in theatres and I was legitimately shocked by the twist of who ras Al ghul was and that was pretty great. Still foolish how he expected Bruce to just turn on Gotham like that 😆. I still think it was a really good movie with a great cast. Carmine Falcone was played brilliantly by his actor and was a surprisingly good villain.
I totally agree. Like many little touches in Batman Begins (nice coat) Scarecrow's end was a little too glib, too cheap. It reduced the character's power and importance to basically nothing. But I think the problem you point out with Ra's Al Ghul was far worse. You zeroed in on the key problem, he expected Bruce to turn on Gotham without actually making a case. If Bruce had actually bought into Ra's Al Ghul's philosophy, at least in theory, then at the crucial moment, he might remember Rachel's line "your father would be ashamed of you," and find himself unable to go through with it. Instead, he isn't even tempted. He's had a change of heart since wanting to kill Joe Chill, but we don't actually witness that change. And because we don't see Bruce transform from a would-be murderer to someone who refuses to kill, Ra's Al Ghul's intention for him in Gotham him seems like a plotline that was dead before it began. Wouldn't it have been something to see Ra's convert Bruce, radicalize him into something akin to a suicide bomber. He's almost ready to help the League of Shadows punish all of Gotham for what it did to his parents, only to find, deep within all that hatred, the last part of his parents that are still alive, the hope of saving the city. That plotline exists within the ideas of Batman Begins' script, but it just doesn't emerge.
Get out of my brain hole friend! I said the same things in my reviews about how those villains were taken out in a cheap way. Check out my reviews if you would like so we can continue the conversation.
I remember not really caring for Batman begins when I watched it as a kid I thought it was eh. But after rewatching it at 24 it’s pretty good and it holds up. Easily a 8/10 movie. I think the game left a sour taste in my mouth lol
@@acevedo6953 i feel the same way, I reviewed the movie as well on my channel if you would like to check that out my friend. Let me know how I did with it, I trust your opinion.
Batman begins has always been my favorite Batman movies especially how it dives into the philosophy behind what fuels Bruce to don the cape and cowl, and I also appreciated Liam's role in this especially the speech about 'will'. That being said it's always welcoming to see another's perspective on a movie even if it doesn't mesh with my own :) Well done video Chris!
While I did enjoy the Nolan-trilogy (at least the first two), I cant say I love them. They just don't feel like proper Batman-movies. Yes, you have Batman/Bruce and other characters. But the charm of Batmans universe is gone to me. Gotham is just New York, the Tumbler, while it has been growing on me recently, doesnt feel like a Batmobile, and the more fantastical elements are gone. I guess the whole "Batman in our world" just isnt interesting enough for me. Its like taking a colorful painting (ironically) and painting over it with grey and white.
I’ll never forget the day I was at the theatre watching the previews. Didn’t even knowing this movie was made. And then I saw this guy shooting up someone and he yells out “where are you!!!!!! And he backs up and there’s Batman upside down and says “here…. I lost my mind! I thought i was looking at a horror movie before. Best movie surprise ever!
@@megamikethemovieman growing up it leaned more so towards super hero movies and I was super afraid of just about anything horror. But my dad had everything horror in his collection and as I’ve grown that’s where my interest is! 60/40 leaning towards horror these days
SOMEONE ACTUALLY SAID IT! I'm right there with you, Chris. Batman Begins is just an okay to good tier movie for me, not mind-blowingly amazing. I respect it though because of how it made Batman non-campy again and started the trend of more serious superhero movies. The Dark Knight, however, gets all the praise it deserves.
@@gianferrer1289 to me it does. Really solid origin story. I reviewed Batman Begins as well along with all the other Batman movies if you would like to check them out on my channel. Let me know how I did with them? Much appreciated.
I agree with everything you said about this movie. I've always wanted to see a grounded Batman movie and for years I thought this was it. I hope The Batman gets it right. Also, Batinson's suit is dope as fuck. Favorite batsuit of all time.
@@stephenwood2145 me too. We have not seen that a lot from a Batman movie. I reviewed all the classic Batman movies on my channel too if you would like to check those out my friend.
I honestly agree and feel the exact same way. I've never known how to put it into words. Like I've loved these movies, but they were just never, ALL THAT to me the way people make it out to be. But you put it perfectly into words for me
"... one of the greatest Batman trilogies..." Name a single other Batman "trilogy." But, yeah, this trilogy is the ultimate movie version of The Emperor's New Clothes. The Dark Knight was, of course, the best, and arguably one of the best super hero movies ever, but even that's arguable after a few of the Marvel movies. Here's hoping The Batman is the real deal.
3c films chris you are an og the goat thank you so much for making these reviews there so freaking awesome thanks my guy you keep me entertain every time you upload and you are so funny AF thanks man I appreciate all the hard work you put in
I love these film reviews! They are my favorite videos on your channel. So honest. Nostalgia definitely needs it's privilege checked! I may not always agree, but your commentary sure is appreciated!
I think the one aspect for movies like these that bother me is the villain always blowing up or torching the heroes base. The most iconic things in comics are their bases, avengers base, the batcave like STOP DOING THAT
I will say I agree with you on Scarecrow, I wish this movie was more focused on him as the main villain. Cillian Murphy played the hell out of that role.
It's a shame he became more and more of a minor character as the trilogy went on going from a terrorist who helped the League of Shadows to attack Gotham to a drug dealer to a mock hanging judge.
Exactly. Scarecrow is a MAJOR villain. I would love to see him in a movie as a big bad. Honestly Batman Begins would've been better if they left Scarecrow as the main villain and kept Ras, Bane, and Talia as the main villains in Rises. It would've been better as SURPRISE, The REAL Ras revealed and was behind the whole story arch of the trilogy.
No, this film was written the way it needed to be. With the Tim Burton movies totally focused on the villains, we needed a Batman movie that actually focused on Batman/Bruce Wayne and that’s what they gave us. The film didn’t need to focus on Scarecrow
Batman Begins is one of my favorite DC Film,used to watch it a lot of times as a kid, really loved the origin story of Bruce Wayne on how became Batman.
The way I see the Nolan Batman films, is that it’s the story that the “Legend” of The Batman is based on. I know that’s not what it was intended to be, but it’s grounded in reality feel can be seen as “What actually happened.” I’ll always love the films I grew up with. I just really enjoyed this take on the Batman universe for its out of left field approach.
@@umasuthankuganathan9896 I can understand that. I reviewed Batman Begins on my channel as well my friend if you would like to check that out, you have great thoughts.
I think they're okay too, but I personally was never able to get into them as much as other people either. Like I find it distracting, for example, that half the dialogue is comprised of characters sounding like they're thoroughly analyzing the themes and ideas of their own movies instead of talking like regular people. Christian Bale does a good job with what he's given but to me his Batman comes across as so stoic that it borders on him looking bored half the time; not to mention, for all the talk of fear in Begins, I don't find his Batman even remotely scary. The characters certainly TALK about how scary he is, but for me it never lands, especially with the heroic theme music playing. Granted I DO like the look and feel of Begins the most, and I really wish Nolan had kept that grimy aesthetic for the sequels. Again, I certainly don't hate these movies, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't have my fair share of problems with them. Pattinson's version is shaping up to be more what I would've wanted the Nolanverse Batman to be like. Can't wait to see it!
I would love to say Chris doesn’t sound like a fool in this video but I just can’t. This really does sound foolish. Every other sentence contradicts the last. Sounds like he likes the movie but has complaints about pretty much ALL of it. And that’s not even the most foolish thing about this review. It’s the comparisons to previous movies and the simple fact that these movies are just better in EVERY single way imaginable. The worst of these(TDKR) is still absolute miles better than anything before or after them. If you’re a Batman fan and a film fan I don’t see how you could think otherwise. This movie is beautiful, deliberate, emotional, just the right amount of dark for this iteration, and the pacing makes it the best comic origin story in film history.
I honestly feel different about a lot of what I said here after rewatching the originals and seeing the new film. So that contradicts what I said, but I was emotional, and still I’m not contradicting myself as much as maybe you were in this review. Seemed like every sentence was like this was great, but this is what sucks about it. It was a bit confusing…love you and your channel, and definitely started that first comment off a bit disrespectful. My apologies and respect brother
Neck Turn Aside I love the Batman Begins suit, and I really love the first scene of him it's absolutely terrifying he moves like a shadow I love that I remember seeing this in theaters as a kid and really loving that scene, as I get older I've really learned to appreciate this film more
David Boreanaz, Henry Cavill, Joshua Jackson, Heath Ledger, Jake Gyllenhaal, Billy Crudup, Hugh Dancy, Steven Pasquale,and Josh Hartnett were considered for Batman.
Christian Bale for me is the best Batman, but only in Batman Begins for me, his “Batvoice” changes between movies and in the dark knight and rises I find it to be be way more silly and too much. In Begins though it’s more subtle, smooth and calm. Surprisingly out of all the ones we’ve gotten, Val Kilmer is my favourite Batman, I really don’t like what Batman Forever ended up being, but his Batman and Bruce Wayne is the best we’ve ever gotten in live action for me in terms of his performance. I wish he got a good Batman movie so people would appreciate his version a lot more, because it’s one that gets lost in the mix and isn’t talked about enough. Im realising so far we’ve gotten very lucky with Batman movie casting, there isn’t a single Batman we’ve had that I think the casting is off, not just pertaining to Batman either all his villains so far have been cast perfectly for the time they were made, I can’t wait to see where the Pattinson cast ranks among the predecessors. Love the reviews Chris glad to see the channels really taking off too! (Sorry ya boy wrote a damn short story).
I disagree with your take on it. I feel like he played Bruce Wayne and Batman so dam good. I remember when I first saw it, I was like wow 😳. Best origin story ever!
Yes, we finally got an “original Batman movie” that actually focused on Batman/Bruce Wayne. Even though Batman 1989 was the best Batman movie, it was more focused on Joker. That’s what the problem with the Tim Burton movies were, they weren’t even about Batman they were about the villains. Tim Burton has this annoying infatuation with the villains 🙄
“Don’t feel Batman.” I don’t understand honestly. Love you bro and your videos but I think you’re wrong when it comes to this amazing origin film. Still respect you. Keep up the content!
I absolutely LOVE Batman Begins, although you do make excellent points about some of the fight choreography being choppy, and Bruce deciding not to kill one person, but inadvertently probably killed many. I was immersed in this world Nolan built, and I loved and totally believed in the League of Shadows concept. I think an organization of assassins taking down civilizations across the span of centuries shows you the scale and scope of their operation. It may be slightly fantastical, but you mentioned you wanted that in your Batman movies. As far as Bales Stature in his suit, I thought he looked very formidable, but when you put Bale on screen with Liam Neeson, Neeson is going to dwarf him seeing that he is around six feet four inches.
11:31 I've never liked how the Nolan films influenced later versions of the Batmobile so it went from a car with weapons and gadgets to just a tank. Especially in Batman Arkham Knight which forces you to overuse the Batmobile to solve almost every single Riddler puzzle and have repetitive fights with tanks and drones.

This movie was the best way to bring the Batman character back to his roots. I loved the horror elements and the joker tease at the end.

YES the joker tease!!
Bro day Joker tease had everyone screaming in da theater. I was there. Everyone turned mad dat day
So this movie came out when I was 5 and I didn’t go back and watch it until I was 11 or 12 and my god when I saw that joker tease I could just feel the amount of hype that scene must have brought on. No other movie has done it better for me.
This Was Probably The Greatest Batman Backstory Before The Dark Knight, I Actually Love This Trilogy, Keep The Work Going Chris
@@bobbyquetzalcoatl1876 no the comment is just weirdly phrased
13:15 To be fair, the only reason that the Michael Keaton Bruce Wayne uses a bat motif is b/c of the title. This movie at least explores the character's phobia.
I understand your opinion bro, but for a lot of the "issues" you have with this movie don't bother me at all, and I feel that even though this is a more grounded, realistic version of Batman not only does it limit some things Christopher Nolan could do but it opened up more opportunities with this movie. But what you must remember is that this movie is surrounded on the concept of "Fear", like all these films, TDK "Chaos", TDKR "Pain", and this film really does well with the aspect of fear. But I respect your opinion and agree with some of your opinions. Awesome Video.
Good point! And yes you’re right if you have an amazing story and characters all the problems can be ignored and that is how I feel about The Dark Knight. So good I ignore the bad
Great way to analyze the different movie with different themes. What’s you favorite out of the trilogy?
@@megamikethemovieman My favourite out of the Trilogy is The Dark Knight
Unfortunately Cris, I disagree completely with you on this. Bale is one of, if not the best Batman I’ve ever known. But we all have own opinions and we can all respect each other’s opinion. Much love for these reviews, these are all great!
I understand and respect that!
I totally agree, I think Scarecrow should’ve been the main villain. In my opinion he is Batman’s best villain. I really hope he’s a main villain in the Matt Reeves films.
I disagree. Scarecrow wouldn't be able to be the physical threat needed at the end.

A bit dramatic bro it wasn't that funny lol
@@About_a_Bag Well as you can assume, I was intentionally being dramatic 😂. Think of it as sort of a hyperbole. I wasn't literally about to pass out from laughter.

3C, you did it again. I love this film after understanding the film for a while and I honestly enjoy Scarecrow. But one thing for sure, ‘89 Batman film and The Dark Knight Rises will always be my favorite Batman films.
You know Cris I'm with you on this one. I've always respected these films but have never resonated with them. I think the ultra-realistic tone of the film takes a lot of the uniqueness out of the batman mythos. In the previous movies Gotham was so unique and was aa character in it of itself in these movies the city looks and feels so generic.
The sets in the first one where crazy the slum where the slums it wasn’t dc it wants newyork or Chicago it was Gotham I could understand why crime alley was so dangerous it looked dangerous but it was Easy to imagine the realism’s gave way to humanity and relatability of the character it made the stakes feel reel where ever more worried about Batman failing or Losing it did a good job of making you feel the weight of the stakes
I think this issue speaks to Nolan's unique approach to film. His stories always track technically, but I often don't feel particularly connected to the characters, and the Dark Knight trilogy is no exception. When Rachel dies in the second film, I understand why Bruce and Harvey are destroyed by it, but I don't feel it myself. It doesn't resonate for me. It's the same with his other films, like inception and The Prestige. I am witness to the magicians' obsession, or Dom Cobb's grief over his wife, but I don't feel it with the characters.
That changed, I think, with Interstellar. It may not be as good or clever a movie as the others, but it lets you sit with the main characters and feel their emotions deeply. Dunkirk did that as well, using very little dialog, but just letting you experience the events along with the characters. Instead of explaining, it just lets you in. Tenet was back to the old routine of swiss-watch concepts; impossibly complex and brilliant, but quite cold and mechanical.
The beginning of a great trilogy
Let me guess your a my hero academia fan?
@@megamikethemovieman how did u know😳
@@plusultra7746 your icon and name. I’m a big fan too. I reviewed Batman begins as well and all the classic Batman movies too if you would like to check those out in my channel my friend? I trust your opinions.
Ewan McGregor, Marilyn Manson, Christopher Eccleston, and Jeremy Davies were considered for Scarecrow.
Athought this is my personal favorite out of Nolan's trilogy (it was the most "comic booky" one out of the three), I do agree with pretty much everything you said. Being too realistic hurts the world of Batman which is why Batman himself is the weakest element of these movies. However this trilogy has the best Gordon and the best Alfred.
How long you been a Red Hood fan?
@@megamikethemovieman For 12 years now.
i admire the way you give your breakdowns and your criticisms; clear with your thoughts without sounding condescending as if your opinions are held higher. one of the more respectful and genuine movie channels out there.
Thank you that means a lot!
Same!
Like I respect the realistic elements from Batman Begins and the rest of The Dark Knight trilogy.
But I still got a soft spot for the older Batman films as well.😂
What’s your favorite classic Batman movie?
I was born before this movie and at the age of 13 I found the DvD of Batman Begins and let me just say it gave me hope that Christopher Nolan brought this version of Batman which he did because in 2005 or so DC was trying to do a cinematic universe with early 2000's DC movies like Superman Returns, The Dark Knight, The Dark Knight Rises along with others, But still, At least Christopher Nolan did his best.
I feel as you summed it up perfectly. What you said is exactly how I feel about this movie
I just rewatched this movie yesterday and it was amazing! It’s probably my least favorite Dark Knight movie but it’s still very good. Love the introduction of Bale’s Batman in this movie.
He probably meant the Movie.
Oops I meant movie
The dark knight Trilogy are my favorite Batman films I can’t imagine anyone but Christian bale as Batman so far no one has even come close yes even Robert Pattinson who many people see as the batman god even though the Batman isn’t out yet but that’s just me
Bale can't fight I'll give him Bruce Wayne and Affleck batman
@@johnlawful2272 no he’s great at everything
I just loved the light-hearted moments in this movie. Very subtle yet effective.
I’m literally watching this movie right now! I was wrong to doubt this film after rewatching it! it’s a pretty well written movie of the becoming of the Batman! 🦇🦇🦇🦇 Man I love how Christopher Nolan directs the Batmobile scene! 😈
It is a good origin story. Not my favorite batman movie, but I'm glad we have it.
It’s better after rewatching it right?
Yea one thing about the Nolan trilogy was the choreography for me and while we could get a better glimpse outside of Batman begins it still wasn't what batman should've been combat wise
Yes yes! Right on time Chris , By the way I really like Batman begins I thought it was a really good way to restart the franchise after the mess they made
I feel the same way about scarecrow being underutilized in this movie too.
I feel the same way about these movies the same you feel about those early batman movies Chris. These movies were my introduction to the batman character and his rogues gallery. I remember owning a DVD copy of the dark knight when I was like 7 or 8 years old because I loved it so much. Now at the age of 15 (16 in may) I find myself appreciating them more and more everything I rewatch them. Even though I love the early batman movies(minus Batman and Robin) these hold a special place in my heart that I'll never forget. Can't wait for The Batman on Friday!!!!!
I love this Batman movie, i was so happy to see the Scarecrow in live action!! Thnx for Another amazing video Chris 😁👍
I like this movie a lot, but the third act is definitely a bit rough.
Ya what makes it a bit rough?
@@megamikethemovieman the whole water pollution plot line felt (to me) out of place, the Tumbler’s rampage of Gotham felt a bit out of character, and the action was quite poorly shot and edited.
@@TitleInProgress understand. I reviewed Batman begins on my channel too if your would like to see that, I trust your thoughts.
I haven't watched Batman Begins since I seen in theaters. But looking back at it, I am glad Christopher Nolan was able to take Batman in a different direction than the previous Batman films of the 90's.
How do you personally like Batman Begins?
Personally I love this movie!
Hey man just wanted to say we really appreciate the amount of content you’ve been pumping out lately. Keep up the good work 👏🏽
The funny scene of this movie was definitely when batman pulled the guy up and down in the alley but he deserves it for stealing money.
Yeah. Classic Batman move, delivered perfectly
Hey Chris, remember me from your Batman and robin review. I’m back! And I wanted to tell you to keep up the good work. Your my favorite RUclipsr right now and thanks for being there when I’m sad happy or any emotions.
My bro! I know all these videos take a lot of work you're doing overtime right now! Much appreciated
The DarkNight trilogy is my favorite Batman movies. The villains where done right, but I do would had want for Batman to kill in this movie. One of the reasons I like this trilogy is cause the movie felt real, like it was happening in the real world. It just felt realistic. I actually wish they had continued this universe. I hope that in the next Batman movie does as good as this trilogy.
What is your favorite out of the trilogy?
I can’t believe you’re doing this series, it feels like yesterday that we had just a little teaser for the Batman
What have you thought of the trailers for the Batman?
My favorite 2 so far are The Dark Knight & Batman Begins. Such great movies.
Fight choreography was lacking in all previous versions. The warehouse scene im B vs S was the best but I want to see more martial arts and skills. Hopefully The Batman brings it with that.
Is it just me, or would a Matt Reeves version of Scarecrow be fire
I would love that
oh yeah it would. i can kinda see an arkham knight scarecrow
Apparently he might be putting Mr Freeze in a sequel.
@@Xehanort10 yeah I heard that! It sounds cool
@@KingKhupacabra Yeah, I would like it to be an actual mental patient this time
Personally, this is my favourite Batman movie to date. I definitely do agree with you that the fighting wasn't great in this movie, let alone the entire trilogy but Nolan's take on the character and the combination of humanity and realism is something that hadn't been done with superhero movie until Batman Begins and inspired a bunch of other film makers including Jon Favreau when he was directing Iron Man and Marc Webb when he was directing TASM 1.
The fighting was definitely a low point for the entire trilogy, though it slowly improved with each film. But it seemed clear that Nolan didn't love that particular kind of movie spectacle. It feels perfunctory and uninspired, like a necessary chore the film had to go through to get to what Nolan felt was important, the human qualities.
Though one could argue that these films illustrate how much less important fight spectacle is in even an action film than rich story, coherent themes, and real drama. A brilliant story with bad fight scenes can still be regarded as a great film. But a clumsy, incoherent story with brilliant fight scenes, not so much.
Would you consider this the best origin story for a superhero?
When you compare the fight scenes of the Batfleck vs Baleman it’s not even close. But the story and the characters and the acting help you overlook these things
You’re videos make my day Chris 😊
This is my favorite Batman movie. Nice to hear your thoughts on the movie!
I have watched Batman begins probably about 4 or 5 times and I love it. It's a very good inspirational movie. The Nolan trilogy was great but one big problem that I hated was how some of the villains went out for instance Bane getting blasted by Catwoman and scarecrow getting tasered while on his horse and riding off,I mean here comes the scarecrow with his damn horse breathing fire and I thought it was about to go down but then he gets tasered and goes out like a chump. I saw it in theatres and I was legitimately shocked by the twist of who ras Al ghul was and that was pretty great. Still foolish how he expected Bruce to just turn on Gotham like that 😆. I still think it was a really good movie with a great cast. Carmine Falcone was played brilliantly by his actor and was a surprisingly good villain.
I totally agree. Like many little touches in Batman Begins (nice coat) Scarecrow's end was a little too glib, too cheap. It reduced the character's power and importance to basically nothing.
But I think the problem you point out with Ra's Al Ghul was far worse. You zeroed in on the key problem, he expected Bruce to turn on Gotham without actually making a case. If Bruce had actually bought into Ra's Al Ghul's philosophy, at least in theory, then at the crucial moment, he might remember Rachel's line "your father would be ashamed of you," and find himself unable to go through with it. Instead, he isn't even tempted. He's had a change of heart since wanting to kill Joe Chill, but we don't actually witness that change. And because we don't see Bruce transform from a would-be murderer to someone who refuses to kill, Ra's Al Ghul's intention for him in Gotham him seems like a plotline that was dead before it began.
Wouldn't it have been something to see Ra's convert Bruce, radicalize him into something akin to a suicide bomber. He's almost ready to help the League of Shadows punish all of Gotham for what it did to his parents, only to find, deep within all that hatred, the last part of his parents that are still alive, the hope of saving the city. That plotline exists within the ideas of Batman Begins' script, but it just doesn't emerge.
Get out of my brain hole friend! I said the same things in my reviews about how those villains were taken out in a cheap way. Check out my reviews if you would like so we can continue the conversation.
Regardless of opinion, you cant deny this film brought Batman back into mainstream popularity.
I remember not really caring for Batman begins when I watched it as a kid I thought it was eh. But after rewatching it at 24 it’s pretty good and it holds up. Easily a 8/10 movie. I think the game left a sour taste in my mouth lol
I had the same thoughts when I was a kid. But i think it gets better every time I rewatch it, is that the same for you?
@@megamikethemovieman yes it does get better with every rewatch.
@@acevedo6953 i feel the same way, I reviewed the movie as well on my channel if you would like to check that out my friend. Let me know how I did with it, I trust your opinion.
The tv spot commercial has nickelback with the song "someday"
Oh man big missed opportunity I didn’t mention that lol
I’ll be honest man I had just as much fun with this one as I did the Dark Knight controversial opinion I know lol
Batman begins has always been my favorite Batman movies especially how it dives into the philosophy behind what fuels Bruce to don the cape and cowl, and I also appreciated Liam's role in this especially the speech about 'will'. That being said it's always welcoming to see another's perspective on a movie even if it doesn't mesh with my own :) Well done video Chris!
While I did enjoy the Nolan-trilogy (at least the first two), I cant say I love them. They just don't feel like proper Batman-movies. Yes, you have Batman/Bruce and other characters. But the charm of Batmans universe is gone to me. Gotham is just New York, the Tumbler, while it has been growing on me recently, doesnt feel like a Batmobile, and the more fantastical elements are gone. I guess the whole "Batman in our world" just isnt interesting enough for me. Its like taking a colorful painting (ironically) and painting over it with grey and white.
I’ll never forget the day I was at the theatre watching the previews. Didn’t even knowing this movie was made. And then I saw this guy shooting up someone and he yells out “where are you!!!!!! And he backs up and there’s Batman upside down and says “here…. I lost my mind! I thought i was looking at a horror movie before. Best movie surprise ever!
Loving the series! As someone whose fandom is mainly super heroes and horror movies a biiiiiiig thanks to your channel for keeping me sane!
Those are my 2 fav genres: superhero’s and horror movies. Have those always been your favorite?
@@megamikethemovieman growing up it leaned more so towards super hero movies and I was super afraid of just about anything horror. But my dad had everything horror in his collection and as I’ve grown that’s where my interest is! 60/40 leaning towards horror these days
SOMEONE ACTUALLY SAID IT! I'm right there with you, Chris. Batman Begins is just an okay to good tier movie for me, not mind-blowingly amazing. I respect it though because of how it made Batman non-campy again and started the trend of more serious superhero movies. The Dark Knight, however, gets all the praise it deserves.
Do you think the movie gets better after seeing the other dark knight movies?
@@megamikethemovieman Maybe to some degree but not a whole lot.
@@gianferrer1289 to me it does. Really solid origin story. I reviewed Batman Begins as well along with all the other Batman movies if you would like to check them out on my channel. Let me know how I did with them? Much appreciated.
This is my favorite Batman movie. I friggin love it. That said, Keaton's my favorite Batman.
This was a great review man! It always makes me happy to hear other peoples opinions about these movies!
How do you like Batman Begins?
This is actually my favorite movie of the dark knight trilogy 😅
The way chris explain each movie from spiderman scream now batman is so entertaining best youtuber I seen that does movie reviews
Thank you!
@@3CFilms thank you Chris the way you walk in little ceasers for batman pizza in batman suit was awesome thanks man cant wait for next batman review
I agree with everything you said about this movie. I've always wanted to see a grounded Batman movie and for years I thought this was it. I hope The Batman gets it right. Also, Batinson's suit is dope as fuck. Favorite batsuit of all time.
What gets you the most excited for The Batman?
@@megamikethemovieman focusing on the detective work
@@stephenwood2145 me too. We have not seen that a lot from a Batman movie. I reviewed all the classic Batman movies on my channel too if you would like to check those out my friend.
I honestly agree and feel the exact same way. I've never known how to put it into words. Like I've loved these movies, but they were just never, ALL THAT to me the way people make it out to be. But you put it perfectly into words for me
"... one of the greatest Batman trilogies..." Name a single other Batman "trilogy." But, yeah, this trilogy is the ultimate movie version of The Emperor's New Clothes. The Dark Knight was, of course, the best, and arguably one of the best super hero movies ever, but even that's arguable after a few of the Marvel movies. Here's hoping The Batman is the real deal.
Several Animated trilogy , Batman to Batman forever trilogy
Would you consider it the best trilogy of all time?
Man and I just saw some RED LIGHTS!!!!! And I was wondering what new video you got lol
One of my favorite Batman movies ever
3c films chris you are an og the goat thank you so much for making these reviews there so freaking awesome thanks my guy you keep me entertain every time you upload and you are so funny AF thanks man I appreciate all the hard work you put in
This was breath of fresh air after Batman & Robin
I love these film reviews! They are my favorite videos on your channel. So honest. Nostalgia definitely needs it's privilege checked! I may not always agree, but your commentary sure is appreciated!
"I won't kill you, but I don't have to save you."
Loophole at it's... finest? 😅
Oh man I know what your next Batman movie review is gonna be and I can't wait to hear what you say about the Dark Knight
I think the one aspect for movies like these that bother me is the villain always blowing up or torching the heroes base. The most iconic things in comics are their bases, avengers base, the batcave like STOP DOING THAT
Thank you! I was just thinking I don’t think Christopher Nolan was good at choreography either. But he handled the Batmobile scenes perfectly! 😫💙💙
One of the best superhero movies ever made!
After re watching all these batman films as an adult I'm 29 now and my favorite as an adult is batman returns that movie is so cool
I will say I agree with you on Scarecrow, I wish this movie was more focused on him as the main villain. Cillian Murphy played the hell out of that role.
It's a shame he became more and more of a minor character as the trilogy went on going from a terrorist who helped the League of Shadows to attack Gotham to a drug dealer to a mock hanging judge.
Exactly. Scarecrow is a MAJOR villain. I would love to see him in a movie as a big bad. Honestly Batman Begins would've been better if they left Scarecrow as the main villain and kept Ras, Bane, and Talia as the main villains in Rises. It would've been better as SURPRISE, The REAL Ras revealed and was behind the whole story arch of the trilogy.
No, this film was written the way it needed to be. With the Tim Burton movies totally focused on the villains, we needed a Batman movie that actually focused on Batman/Bruce Wayne and that’s what they gave us. The film didn’t need to focus on Scarecrow
@@nsasupporter7557 no I understand that, I just said I wish Scarecrow was a main villain as opposed to a henchman
@@rebeccawalton4234 gotcha 👍
Batman Begins is one of my favorite DC Film,used to watch it a lot of times as a kid, really loved the origin story of Bruce Wayne on how became Batman.
Watching this review and realizing that two of the actors from Mandy were in this movie and I've seen Thomas Wayne's dong.
😂😂😂
The way I see the Nolan Batman films, is that it’s the story that the “Legend” of The Batman is based on. I know that’s not what it was intended to be, but it’s grounded in reality feel can be seen as “What actually happened.”
I’ll always love the films I grew up with. I just really enjoyed this take on the Batman universe for its out of left field approach.
I love the dark knight series and I love Christian bale as Batman
Holy shoot I just finished watching the Batman and Robin review and checked my subscriptions and found this lol. Perfect timing.
I was born after this movie came out so it's wild for me think this wasn't well known as Batmans origin
Wow lol awesome to think about 👊
How did you like the movie overall?
@@megamikethemovieman I think it's amazing but the editing is a bit weird at times
@@umasuthankuganathan9896 I can understand that. I reviewed Batman Begins on my channel as well my friend if you would like to check that out, you have great thoughts.
This movies introduction of the tumbler alone is why I live it so much 😂 the way they introduced it and showed it’s uses 😩 that V8 sounds amazing
Can't wait for robert pattinson's batman this is gonna be awesome
I think they're okay too, but I personally was never able to get into them as much as other people either. Like I find it distracting, for example, that half the dialogue is comprised of characters sounding like they're thoroughly analyzing the themes and ideas of their own movies instead of talking like regular people. Christian Bale does a good job with what he's given but to me his Batman comes across as so stoic that it borders on him looking bored half the time; not to mention, for all the talk of fear in Begins, I don't find his Batman even remotely scary. The characters certainly TALK about how scary he is, but for me it never lands, especially with the heroic theme music playing. Granted I DO like the look and feel of Begins the most, and I really wish Nolan had kept that grimy aesthetic for the sequels. Again, I certainly don't hate these movies, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't have my fair share of problems with them.
Pattinson's version is shaping up to be more what I would've wanted the Nolanverse Batman to be like. Can't wait to see it!
I would love to say Chris doesn’t sound like a fool in this video but I just can’t. This really does sound foolish. Every other sentence contradicts the last. Sounds like he likes the movie but has complaints about pretty much ALL of it. And that’s not even the most foolish thing about this review. It’s the comparisons to previous movies and the simple fact that these movies are just better in EVERY single way imaginable. The worst of these(TDKR) is still absolute miles better than anything before or after them. If you’re a Batman fan and a film fan I don’t see how you could think otherwise. This movie is beautiful, deliberate, emotional, just the right amount of dark for this iteration, and the pacing makes it the best comic origin story in film history.
I understand and respect your opinion
I honestly feel different about a lot of what I said here after rewatching the originals and seeing the new film. So that contradicts what I said, but I was emotional, and still I’m not contradicting myself as much as maybe you were in this review. Seemed like every sentence was like this was great, but this is what sucks about it. It was a bit confusing…love you and your channel, and definitely started that first comment off a bit disrespectful. My apologies and respect brother
Kurt Russell, Chris Cooper and Dennis Quaid were considered for Commissioner Jim Gordon.
Tbh the only thing I agree with Chris in this review is that the fight choreography is bad. Other than that, I disagreed with everything
Neck Turn Aside I love the Batman Begins suit, and I really love the first scene of him it's absolutely terrifying he moves like a shadow I love that I remember seeing this in theaters as a kid and really loving that scene, as I get older I've really learned to appreciate this film more
David Boreanaz, Henry Cavill, Joshua Jackson, Heath Ledger, Jake Gyllenhaal, Billy Crudup, Hugh Dancy, Steven Pasquale,and Josh Hartnett were considered for Batman.
Have you seen Cillian's screen test as Batman? Too youthful as Bruce, but when he had the cowl...PERFECT! His voice was great!
Christian Bale for me is the best Batman, but only in Batman Begins for me, his “Batvoice” changes between movies and in the dark knight and rises I find it to be be way more silly and too much. In Begins though it’s more subtle, smooth and calm.
Surprisingly out of all the ones we’ve gotten, Val Kilmer is my favourite Batman, I really don’t like what Batman Forever ended up being, but his Batman and Bruce Wayne is the best we’ve ever gotten in live action for me in terms of his performance. I wish he got a good Batman movie so people would appreciate his version a lot more, because it’s one that gets lost in the mix and isn’t talked about enough.
Im realising so far we’ve gotten very lucky with Batman movie casting, there isn’t a single Batman we’ve had that I think the casting is off, not just pertaining to Batman either all his villains so far have been cast perfectly for the time they were made, I can’t wait to see where the Pattinson cast ranks among the predecessors.
Love the reviews Chris glad to see the channels really taking off too!
(Sorry ya boy wrote a damn short story).
I disagree with your take on it. I feel like he played Bruce Wayne and Batman so dam good. I remember when I first saw it, I was like wow 😳. Best origin story ever!
Yes, we finally got an “original Batman movie” that actually focused on Batman/Bruce Wayne. Even though Batman 1989 was the best Batman movie, it was more focused on Joker. That’s what the problem with the Tim Burton movies were, they weren’t even about Batman they were about the villains. Tim Burton has this annoying infatuation with the villains 🙄
“Don’t feel Batman.” I don’t understand honestly. Love you bro and your videos but I think you’re wrong when it comes to this amazing origin film. Still respect you. Keep up the content!
In my opinion the best Batman movie made so far was Tim Burton’s 1989 version with Michael Keaton and I’m interested in seeing the Batman on March 4th
I absolutely LOVE Batman Begins, although you do make excellent points about some of the fight choreography being choppy, and Bruce deciding not to kill one person, but inadvertently probably killed many. I was immersed in this world Nolan built, and I loved and totally believed in the League of Shadows concept. I think an organization of assassins taking down civilizations across the span of centuries shows you the scale and scope of their operation. It may be slightly fantastical, but you mentioned you wanted that in your Batman movies. As far as Bales Stature in his suit, I thought he looked very formidable, but when you put Bale on screen with Liam Neeson, Neeson is going to dwarf him seeing that he is around six feet four inches.
I respect your opinion but man this was one of the best origin superhero movies ever
I respect that
11:31 I've never liked how the Nolan films influenced later versions of the Batmobile so it went from a car with weapons and gadgets to just a tank. Especially in Batman Arkham Knight which forces you to overuse the Batmobile to solve almost every single Riddler puzzle and have repetitive fights with tanks and drones.
