This is an adaptation of Frank Miller's "Batman:Year 1" series and it's pretty close to the story.
It shows both Batman and James Gordon at the beginning of their careers dealing with corrupt politicians, criminal gangs and so on.
Batman is one of those characters where the story has been retold so many times that you can draw anything from the campy to the deadly serious about it. We have all the Batman characters we love- including Harvey Dent (pre-horrible accident) and the Catwoman. (Although, honestly, I found her character to be the kind of annoying thing about the film.
This is done in the style of Japanese Anime, and if you enjoy that kind of thing, that's fine. It was graphic and gritty and I imagine somewhere out there a parent rented this and got an eye-full with the red light district scene.
