Another superhero film may make you ready to yawn until it brings in Eastern philosophy. The formative years of the Batman-to-be are shown and his early relationship with Gotham City. A mysterious group of people recruit the young Bruce Wayne before he becomes a crimefighter and show him his fear is shrinking his potential. BATMAN BEGINS has dark atmospheres and some kewl props but the flash is found I think more in Wayne's inward journey than his outward exploits. The villain of Gotham City is rounded up quickly leaving the film without an antagonist until...One of your better superhero flicks notwithstanding the Clint Eastwood sound-alike which is distracting. [4.1 stars]
