Directed by Christopher Nolan from a script by David Goyer and Charles Roven, Batman Begins features Christian Bale in the lead role as Batman and his billionaire dual identity, Bruce Wayne. The stellar supporting cast includes Liam Neeson as Ducard, Michael Caine as Alfred, Morgan Freeman as Lucius Fox, Gary Oldman as Lt. James Gordon, Ken Watanabe as Ra's Al Ghul, Tom Wilkinson as Carmine Falcone, Rutger Hauer as Richard Earle, Katie Holmes as Rachel Dawes and Cillian Murphy as Dr. Jonathan Crane and The Scarecrow. Opening with Bruce as a young boy, Batman Begins follows the evolution of young Wayne from the murder of his parents on through to his training to become the caped crusader. The death of his parents leaves Wayne with an unfocused anger. As a young man, he turns to the underworld he despises so much, hoping that by submersing himself, he will understand his enemy better. We pick up Wayne in a prison in a distant land, where he is picking fights with unseemly inmates, which he terms as "practice." Ducard (Neeson) is impressed by his spirit and invites him to train under the tutelage of Ra's Al Ghul and the League of Shadows. After an unspecified time of intense training, Wayne returns to Gotham with the intent of cleaning up the corrupt city where he was raised, a town that has gotten so bad most citizens believe it is far beyond reprieve.Read full review
You know what I like but this Batman series finally got out the gate all the other Batman movies starting over at telling the story of Bruce Wayne and how he became Batman we all know the story Starbucks good accuracy in start in the middle of a fight don't keep rehashing the same old story line from a different point of view just get going that's why I love the series doctor said I got out of the gate the quality was unbelievable it was some more believable movie there was some stuff in there that you could just tell that Hollywood did let go and you could tell they didn't work the first time it seem more realistic more like a believable Batman if someone was actually try to be Batman definitely am on my paper Batman series highly recommended

This movie is really good! If you want to get the history of who the Batman is of the new Batman movie series, you have to watch this one. It is a intro to the next Batman series starring Christian Bale as Batman. From a young troubled boy to a man looking for meaning in life, Batman's character unfolds as the title suggests "Batman Begins." I rated this movie as "Good" because it cannot be rated equal to the sequel film "Dark Night" which mesmerized audiences on behalf of the Oscar nominated performance by Heath Ledger as the Joker. All in all "batman Begins" is a great film to have and watch time and again.
Genius of mystery and intrigue Christopher Nolan (MEMENTO, FOLLOWING, INSOMNIA) helms this prequel to the Batman films based on the DC Comics series, explaining how Bruce Wayne (Christian Bale)--the billionaire prince of Gotham whose parents were killed in an alleyway mugging--transformed into the crime-fighting superhero. With flashbacks to his privileged childhood, young Master Wayne, as he is called by the butler Alfred (Michael Caine), develops a terrible fear of bats when he falls through the backyard garden into a hidden cave. As a young adult, Wayne lives among the League of Shadows, a martial arts group in the mountains of Asia. His leaders Ra's al Ghul (Ken Watanabe) and Henri Ducard (Liam Neeson) teach him strength, endurance, and--unfortunately--evil, against which he naturally rebels. Returning to Gotham and reinstating himself as a dapper socialite and the rightful heir to his parents' enterprise, Wayne quickly devises his secret identity, commanding help from the gadgetry expert Lucius Fox (Morgan Freeman). With one eye on his childhood playmate Rachel (Katie Holmes)--now a beautiful woman and dedicated lawyer--and the other on his mission to save Gotham from criminal corruption, Batman makes his fledgling debut. But when the blue-blooded mastermind Dr. Crane (Cillian Murphy)--who steals every scene with chilling menace--taints the water system with a hallucinatory substance, Batman realizes he has met his first true opponent. An attitude of grave seriousness elevates BATMAN BEGINS above more cartoony Batman movies, as Nolan crafts a dark drama that thrives on sci-fi intrigue. Bale strides into the role with grace, adding refinement that is seldom seen in action-oriented films. And while the action scenes explode with high-tech glitz and fast-moving thrills, they are evenly placed among sequences of plot and character development, making for a complex and satisfying viewing experience.Read full review
I was not sure about Christian Bale as Batman, but I was pleasantly surprised to find he did an excellent job in the role. Supporting cast was also very good. An entertaining movie, I recommend it!
