Batman Begins [Blu-ray]

Batman Begins scored very well earning five full stars in my book. This film can almost be guaranteed not to disappoint. It portrayed for the first time on the big screen the origins of the bat providing a good story and script, fine performances, excellent costumes, great sets coordinated with corresponding miniatures and CGI. The well presented martial arts sequences between the Bat and our favorite Jedi Master were thrilling.

The Blu Ray transfer from film to DVD was excellent and hours of additional features on the making of the film and its outstanding special effects are included on this reasonably priced DVD. This film is a must buy for fans of Batman.

This may have been the first time that picture real computer images were produced by mapping actual city photos onto wire frame models of Gotham City with breathtaking results. I had no idea how they achieved these images until I watched the interesting and informative documentary on the making of the film.

This film also portrayed many of Batman's toys under development in the Bat Cave, including the most credible looking Bat mobile ever shown on the big screen.

When I first went into the theaters to see this film I was hesitant in the knowledge that this film could of been a really good film, upstaging previous films or it could of been a poor excuse of a Batman movie, in which, the studio was trying to sqeeze every penny out of people as humanly possible before leaving the once great Batman to rest. However, I found the theartical movie very well done. Which leads me to this DVD version of Batman Begins.
I found this DVD a well contrived movie in which there was a well written orgin story about what happened to Bruce Wayne and why he choose to become Batman. Furthermore, The editing of this movie seemed to be well done because the entire movie did flow well and as an audience member was able the follow what was going on without having to guess what was happening from scene to scene because of poorly done editing, which has been done before in other films not related to this one. On another note, the acting in this movie was well done and gave more life to the storyline and the characters that were involved with it. Overall, I found this film one of the few movies that has come out of Hollywood to be truly worth my time to watch the first time and worthy to be watched more than once.

2005'S 4 STAR **** HIT, ****BATMAN BEGINS****, MADE CHRISTIAN BALE AN INSTANT CLASSIC. GOOD ACTOR, INTELLEGENT, EXTRADINARY! ****

This is a great transfer. And the 5 minute prologue gives you a sweet taste of how great The Dark Knight will look on Blu ray.

It seems I have been waiting my whole life for a Batman movie like this one. I only wish it was the first one. Its very satisfying to see the character done right.
