Robert Pattinson could have been a great potential as the batman if only the director was not Matt Reeves. The pace is SO slow, the storybeat is dragging, the scriptwriting is childish and not clever at all, the sound (oh my gosh..) is forcing it too far, the plot could have been interesting but there are so many elements that ruin the story, it is not focused on the message. Poor casting choice aside from the bat and cat. There is no groundbreaking cinematography. The car chase is unnecessary for the plot, it feels like the director put it there just for the sake of action. There are jumbled elements like cowboy shot, fast and furious goodbye shot, horror shots etc etc. The batman is depicted as lame rather than depressed, which makes us hard to relate to him as Batman. If this meant to be detective movie, the script and plot are not strong enough. Frankly, this feels like a work of someone who doesnt love the batman, the character, the struggle, the movie, this feels like the work of someone who just wanna try something out with Robert Pattinson and DC heroes as a toy. This movie just doesnt work as a whole for Batman.
This does not need to be compared to Nolan's, but as a movie of the batman itself, this is very disappointing.
