I was never given the chance as a kid to be interested in comics such as Batman or Spiderman or any of those, but after seeing this movie I have become completely enthralled in the story of Batman. I highly recommend this movie but I agree with other reviews in saying that this movie is very borderline whether it should be PG-13 or Rated R. It is something that I know would scare young children especially, but even still I think this is a must see movie. Another aspect of it is how many people who have never even picked up a batman comic can pick up this story while people who were avid readers of the Batman comic catch things such as foreshadowing for Two-face and such events.
