The new Batman is here and from the trailers I already had high expectations and I can say with a smile on my face that this movie lived up to them. Robert Pattinson did raise a few concerns in me, but thankfully unnecessarily. I admit thatThe new Batman is here and from the trailers I already had high expectations and I can say with a smile on my face that this movie lived up to them. Robert Pattinson did raise a few concerns in me, but thankfully unnecessarily. I admit that Christian Bale remains the best Batman for me, but this one was also great and had something going for it. But what the film did best in my opinion was the atmosphere. It was absolutely fabulous. It immediately drew me in and didn't let go until the end, even over 3 hours in. Not everyone will like it. The pacing is slower and most importantly this is a bit of a different Batman. It's much more detectivey and rarely gets any action. Personally, I welcome this news warmly and I really liked this detective style and enjoyed watching the various pieces of information being uncovered until the very end. As I mentioned before, there isn't much action, but it's all the better when it does occur now and then. It's really great, and it felt quite realistic, which made it even more immersive. In short, this is not some superhero action movie with a full load of action and an immortal main character. On the contrary. Batman isn't as strong here and at times he takes a beating from his enemies, which adds to the aforementioned realism. What added to the quality was the music, which at times perfectly highlighted the moment and more than once I got goosebumps or simply the feeling that I was watching something spectacular. I would also like to mention the excellent chemistry between Batman and Catwoman, because we have perhaps never seen such chemistry in any Batman movie. So the question is kind of whether this is the best Batman movie. How about. It's hard to compare, because this one was vastly different from the previous ones and it goes its own way and it's doing just fine by the way. I personally prefer Christopher Nolan's Batman, but that's a matter of taste. Back to Matt Reeves' Batman, though. I believe that some will love it for its change to the detective genre and others will find it a long, slow and mostly boring affair. I'm among those who welcomed this new release and for me, it is a wonderful film that I recommend.… Expand
