At least Batman Forever had a song by U2; there's a tuneless pop song repeated throughout The Batman that makes the extended runtime even harder to endure. I thought the Twilight guy did a good job, though.
Don't go see this if you are depressed because you may want to go jump off a bridge after you see this dark, depressing, film. No real music worth mentioning...was there even a music director? The dialogue consisted of mumbled simple sentences that the sound engineer didn't even attempt to clear. And OMG three hours wasted, I kept thinking it would get better. Nope.
Rob shines as Batman, sulks as Bruce Wayne (although that is a part of his origin story). Kravitz, Dano, and Farrell all do solid work. Has easily one of the best action sequences in DC history (although overall this is a long Batman movie with few action sequences). Fantastic visuals and the mood is spot on for Gotham. A+
it was very confusing and hard to understand because i haven’t watched the other movies but batman is hot and that was the only good part
Even the daytime scenes were so dark. It was difficult to watch this movie and know what was happening as everything was so dark.. I gave up half way through.
Nice try, guys, REALLY nice try, but the Batman I grew up with would NEVER be seen in Gotham wearing such a ridiculous getup! MY Batman is the Batman of West, Keaton, Bale, and Affleck! Nice try, guys, but "nice" doesn't earn you a seat at the table in the Hall of Justice!!!!

I haven’t been to the movies in a while, so coming back to watch this movie was great! Had a great night; the theater was beautiful and the staff were friendly. The movie was amazing. I love the riddles and where the movie lead to unexpected plots. I think Robert Pattinson did a fantastic job and so did the lady who played cat woman. I can’t wait to see what’s to come next!
This is not a Joel Schumacher abomination with no story and a bunch of nonsense action. This a dark movie that is not really for kids, and has a strong focus on Batman's ability to solve crime as "The world's greatest detective". But as a result it is seemingly a bit long and slow as it is not full of nonsense action. If you can get into the Joker movie, you should be able to get into this movie, as they are roughly the same type of movie..
The jet black tone is consistently unsettling, and the flashy, explosive action scenes are some of the best of the series. Even so, it's the romance at the heart of the movie that most will remember, played to impressive perfection by Affleck and Gadot. A great night out at the movies!
