“The Batman” Hailed as One Of The Greatest DC Movies of All Time
When vampire-loving Robert Pattinson was cast as Dark Knight, people were initially skeptical. But, things are turning out to be positive as The Batman is starting to get rave reviews from critics. Yesterday, 28 February, the embargo was lifted. However, we were able to see early reviews last week.
An Instagram post with quotes like “Robert Pattinson is your new favourite Batman” was accidentally shared. It was later removed. Fans were excited to hear that this new version of the caped crusader was going to be much more violent. Many of Batman’s more well-known villains were happy to make an appearance.
It received an 87% score from Rotten Tomatoes critics after nearly 200 reviews. While it is not as good as 2008’s The Dark Knight (a juicy 94%), it still ranks among the best DC films. DC has had a very mixed record of success with its superhero films. Films like Batman V Superman, Wonder Woman 1984 and the original Suicide Squad failed horribly. However, they contrast with Shazam, the original Wonder Woman remake and The Suicide Squad, which all scored high scores in the 90s.
Unilad concludes that The Batman provides the big-screen light that only the dark knight can offer. Reeves and Pattinson bring the most violent movie about the caped crusader yet. It’s like a Bat outta hell. Not all reviews are positive. The Independent states that Batman is an excellent Batman movie. It is a disappointment or delusion to think of it as more.
It’s a film you should watch if your interest is in superhero films. It’s there.
