One thing that I found annoying were the scenes with those CGI shots of Batman wearing the "cell phone network sonar imaging glasses". I think that went a little too far toward silly.
Bale's Batman voice is a little distracting and the Batmobile still looks like a really impractical tank that would never make it off the designing board. Some of the hand to hand fighting isn't shot very well and reminded me of the way Peter Jackson shot the Lord of the Rings fighting sequences = close, shakey and blurry. I hate that style of filming...why can't directors just take their ing time, pull the camera out a bit, choerograph the scenes properly and let the audience clearly see what's going on? Too many movies are getting lazy the way they actually shoot the action.
That said, this was probably the best movie I've seen this year and is the first movie since Return of the King that I'm actually going to see at the theatre more than once! |

Some of the edits (especially near the beginning) I found were kinda shotty too. |

I agree about that too. I have a feeling there's going to be some kind of extended DVD release before Chrismtas with extra footage. Remember at the party when the Joker throws Rachel off the roof and Batman saves her? Well...what happened to those people at the party and how did the Joker get away? It just cuts right away and never explains it...that is definitely a flaw!
I also felt that Batman Begins suffered from the same type of problems (editing, fight choreography, etc).
So I really think the people who are calling this the greatest film of all time need to relax a little. I cant' believe the ratings its getting on IMDB. |

You may want to put a little spoiler alert before that. The cut that I noticed initially was when the scene (I forget which one) cut to Rachel and Harvey eating dinner and then Bruce and that girl walked in.
I wouldn't say it's the greatest film of all time, but I would definitely put it up there on my list of top action movies IMO. I find that every big anticipated blockbuster is "the great film of all time" or "the greatest comedy of the year", so I don't really pay attn to that stuff.
Compared to Batman Begins I thought this was WAY better. I actually didn't really like Batman Begins that much. |
