My rating 4star.
Brought Gotham that corruption styled background and not your everyday superhero film, With Sunshine and pep talks. So dark that it made the batman character so scary.
the batman, Batcave and his fighting style equipment use are all handled grounded and implied to be realistic unlike Ben Affleck sci-fi batmobile and tools. And yes batman presented here is a rookie who is still finding his feet. It is a slow burn. But never boring though.
The wicked nature of Gotham was bought to life. I am not a big batman fan and I enjoy both marvel and DC. for me the ideology of this kind of Gothic dark thriller was a change from the usual superhero movies. More focused on hand to hand combat and fighting style is also grounded like John wick movies.if you are not paying attention to the movie you won't get the story.
Cat woman. Character is also not bad. The twist did work for me. The best batman mask ever in any live action movies
The exact motive of riddler was a bit unclear. And the change from his disguised motor cyclist outfit to his Batman costume and the end of movie after he realized that hope will change the city was a catharsis moment for me and was a nice touch. And the only sad thing is batman never used batarangs
