The Nolan brothers came through yet again in their newest addition to their Batman universe. I walked into the theater with hopes and expectations of a Batman Begins-esque picture, and left completely blown away. The entire cast, from Christian Bale to Ritchie Coster gave performances that far exceeded my expectations. The storyline and direction of the movie never left me bored or waiting for something to happen. From the opening scene to the final scene, this movie was visually stunning. I'd continue with the review, but I'd feel compelled to give things away. The bottom line is, this is by far the best Batman movie to reach the golden screen and by far the best super-hero adaptation I have seen to date.
