Comments: This Batman movie addresses many questions we face today. The answers may not be exactly right as you want them answered. However, the movie takes a stance and does its best to sort them out.

The movie shows Batman more human than ever, which seems commonplace these days (e.g. James Bond). Though this movie doesn't get away from the fact that the audience wants to be entertained and not tortured. Action and excitement are the first priority and the roots of the character second, as it should be in an action movie. If we want characters developed to a fault, we'd watch Jane Eyre.

This movie is fun and exciting. I enjoyed the underlying themes and never felt treated like an idiot by the movie. Well done!
