Genre: Action/Adventure/Crime/Thriller

Rated: PG-13

I thought the last Batman movie sucked and after that it was a while until one day I saw a poster for this movie and I wasn't sure if this movie had any connection to any of the Batman movies from the 90's until I found out it was a reboot. Anyway, the movie basically a darker story of how Bruce Wayne (Christian Bale) became Batman and brought justice to the corrupted Gotham City and takes down Scarecrow (Cillian Murphy). I like these newer Batman movies better than the 90's movies because these newer movies for these following reasons:

1.) Darker story

2.) Actually follows the comic books (for example, like in the Tim Burton movies, Bruce Wayne's parents were killed by The Joker when in the comic books Bruce Wayne's parents were really killed by some street thug)

3.) These newer Batman movies make the 90's movies look like cartoons

4.) Better cast (Christian Bale is excellent and so is Michael Caine)

Christian Bale has to be the best Batman ever to this day and age! I'll definitely choose this newer Batman movie over any of the 90's movies anytime!
