The musical score is very impressive and keeps the tension, however as with the previous movie the storyline takes a while and doesn't entertain long enough for the over 2 hour time sitting in your seat. Its dissapointing that Batman' true character is often missed in these movies - while Superman is known as the "Man of Steel" - Batman is often forgotten as the "Worlds Greatest Detective" - A Sherlock Holmes who is often five steps ahead of his adversary (although you don't realize it at first) - and as a child tramatized by seeing his parents gunned down in front of him -(he never will be seen holding a gun) becomes so obsessed with fighting crime that he becomes an olympic class athelete - in Batman Begins you see a hint at the end when Bruce Wayne buys back his company without William Earle, the CEO of Wayne Enterprises knowing about it that Bruce is intelligent - but never do you see the "master detective" - perhaps the next director will discover that. (look for a stock shot of NY city with the World Trade Towers in the background)
