We actually had a babysitter tonight and went to see it. Simply remarkable. I agree with Eliza - could be the best super hero movie ever made.
What was amazing to me was thay Batman became someone who was believable. Spiderman getting bit by a radioactive spider and mutating into Spiderman? Nah. Good movies, but nah. Superman the space alien? nah. But this - I could believe that this Batman was real.
The set up for his evolution into the caped crusader was masterfully done. The flashback scenes combined with his training and mentoring, and his refusal to join the league of shadows involved excellent story telling and dialogue with superb acting all around.
I am someone who knows nothing of Batman in the comics - so the plots intertwining various villians meant nothing to me and couldn't have ruined the movies.
I was just glad this wasn't as stupid as any of the other Batman movies, as I really thought the others sucked.
