Bale was superb, subtle, even. The more you reflect of his turn, the more you dig his skill.
AND HARDLY ANY CGI !!!
Ahem, anyway, whoah, Nolan does love icebergs, doesn't he?
The whole shantytown of misery surrounding Gotham was a great visual.
Caine was Caine--ie, fab.
(Yeah, Freeman in NURSE BETTY is fine creep-ah.)
Murphy truly was unnerving, like an inflated sneery GOP-advisor Depp.
Actually, lots of serious stuff here, presented in only slightly annoying serious mode. Combining David Goyers (BLADE123) and Nolan was a prefect balance, neutering the undesireable in both.
And I want a tee shirt that says "Does it come in black?"

And Liam's haircut was really disturbing.
I'd pay to see it again--scary.

That's what I want to do too, see it again at the IMAX.
I don't know if it is time yet to suggest my alternate casting choice for the scarecrow.

I thought it was a pretty decent time at the movies, but the humorlessness is really a little much. The lead actor, Christian Bale, spends two hours scowling, pouting, punching and suffering. Co-writer/director Christopher Nolan is so determined to make him a tragic hero that he forgets many tragic heroes (like, say, Hamlet, to whom this Batman is a cousin) get to throw off a few one liners here and there. When the movie's two elder statesmen, Michael Caine and Morgan Freeman, actually get to crack a few smiles and throw off a few quips, it's like a sip of fresh water after a thousand miles crawling in the desert. On the up side: A terrific and spooky villain played by Cillian Murphy, a dynamic and mysterious mentor performance by Liam Neeson, and real visual grandeur.

Actually what's going to be interesting to me is how Burton's execution of action scenes matches against Nolan's, in that I don't think Burton could do much with those (or maybe more accurately his editors couldn't, I'm not sure) and it sounds like Nolan falls down a bit on that front. Oh well, roll on tonight!
