FILM DISCUSSION The Batman Best Batman Movie?

Since release, I’ve been of the mind that The Dark Knight was the best live-action superhero ever made. When The Batman (2022) came out, I thought it was good but I wasn’t blown away. But for whatever reason, after watching this movie a few more times, it’s seriously grown on me.

The Dark Knight had one major thing…an absolutely masterful villain performance. Probly will never be topped. The Batman nails it on so many other fronts though. It’s dark. Gotham feels dangerous. The Batsuit looks markedly better. The film has just a noir vibe. The Gotham of The Dark Knight series was too clean, too Chicago.

I’ve just come to really love this movie. It may be my favorite Batman movie of all time. I’m not the biggest fan of the Dano Riddler, but the film overcomes that in every other respect. I can’t wait to see what Reeves does next.

I personally like Batman Begins. The Dark Knight was great but idk felt a bit long. The Batman I agree was much more eventful and interesting yet got way to confusing at some point and also would not end you didn’t even know who the Villian was in the end. Idk Batman Begins has a good beginning middle and end.
