Batman Begins (2005)

Christian Bale, Katie Holmes, Michael Caine, Morgan Freeman, Liam Neeson

You know who is a pretty bad ass actor?? Christian Bale. He makes an excellent new Batman and I really like the direction they are taking with this series of movies. The first round (with Keaton as Batman) of Batman movies ended up being over the top cartoonish towards the end and basically sucked. The newer movies make it easier for me to suspend disbelief and enjoy the movie.

You know who is a horrible actress?? Katie Holmes. How the hell does this girl keep getting acting jobs?? She uses the George Clooney method of acting: play the same damn character in everything you do. She is basically Joey Potter in this movie. I fully expected her to tell Bale at the end of the movie that she loved him but was leaving him for Dawson or Pacey. Seriously, you make an ass load of money: SPEND SOME OF IT ON ACTING CLASSES!!!!

If you can get past the monumental task of tolerating Holmes, you’ll enjoy the first int he new Batman series.
