Batman Begins had its ups an downs. I think the action kinda sucked, all those crappy camera angles you couldnt tell what the hell was going on when he was fighting half the time.
I think the 1st Burton Movie was the best MOVIE, but the best interpretation has to be the 90's Batman Cartoon. Some episodes were so good, some episodes were better than any of the films.
I remember there was one episode where the scarecrow hits batman, but as Bruce Wayne, with a Fearless toxin makin him totally fearless so he will walk into this moat of alligators. The scarecrow walks away thinkin Bruce Wayne is as good as dead, an Bruce does calmly walk into the moat totally submerged with the crocs jumpin on where he was then a totally motionless surface. Then 5 seconds later Bruce emerges the other side calm as before an several seconds later all the bodies of all the crocs float to the surface dead. LOL, so its like the fear toxin actually made him more of a baddazz. I was prayin for something like that in Batman Begins.
I also I think the costume is a little off, I think they need to make the eye slots for the costume white so its not showing iris's so it looks just like the comic. Then if Batman is trying to scope out some place dark they should go red for infravision.
An was it me or was a lot of that action kinda generic? I wasnt too impressed, I kept thinking of the knife fight in Burton's 1st Batman an was waiting for a fight scene to top that, that NEVER came.
The fear toxin special effects were dead on though, Batman looking like a black demon, then looking like a demon flying over the city towards the end. They just needed Batman to whoop a little more azz, like see a dark area full of thugs, then the screen pans away then quickly pans back an all the thugs are out cold on the ground or totally vanished without a sound or a trace. I mean we got to see spidey pull some need acrobatic moves right out of the comics but I didnt see any cool batman moves really. They need to show him as being more formidable than they did.
What would have really been cool would have been more on his training in martial arts before he meets Ra. Quiodi his arch rival in his training dojo, ect. Or some of the training they show in the cartoon again a perfect example. Shows him understudying a magician, learning his escape artist tricks, picking hand cuffs, disappearing in plain sight, slight of hand, ect.
