From the inception of the Batman comic, thru many cartoon incarnations, the TV series and 4 films, it's about time Hollywood got it right. Move over Michael Keaton, Christian Bale is Batman! The performance rendered by Health Ledger is Oscar worthy, In his short life, he gave us performances worthy of a master thespian. His last is intense but shows the depth of his repertoire in sculpting the Joker. He will be sorely missed.
Steven Spielberg's attempt to re-create the action serials of his childhood continue. This film is all that it is cracked up to be. It has a great plot line, wonderful actors and some of the most beautiful locations in the world. All together this mixes up to be one fun filled romp around the world with Indy. Please, when you see it, don't be a spoler and leak the ending. That's the only part of the movie that mad me sad.
This summer should be a blast if Ironman is the first taste. There is nothing about this film that disappoints. The photography is brilliant, the screenplay is witty and beautifully executed by a wonderful cast. Special FX add to this films excitementt. The pace is fast and fun filled. Ironman is Robert Downey's crowning glory. I want to go back to see it again. Note, however, that this is no kid's movie. Adult content including references to alcoholic behaviour and screen violence make this an adult film. Get a babysitter and go see Ironman!
