And thanks mostly to Michael Cane the movie is far funnier than you probably remember. Christian Bale is perfectly cast: He can play both the brooding bat and the slightly smarmy playboy (drawing from his American Psycho days). It’s also an astounding start to one of the best film trilogies of all time. (Well, you can maybe already guess that Pattinson comes out on top of poor Clooney, given the costuming.) We ranked all 16 Batman films that made their way to theaters (or, in the case of Zack Snyder’s cut of Justice League, to HBO Max for pandemic reasons).īatman Begins was a radical shift away from goofy costumes towards a grounded tale of the most corrupt city in fiction. It’s time to ask how Pattinson’s Batman measures up to all the other brooding playboys, from Christian Bale’s lovelorn version to George Clooney’s Bat with nipples on his suit. With so many Bat-people running around, it’s hard to stand out. And Zack Snyder’s version of the superhero was relentlessly grim. Christopher Nolan set a new bar for scale and emotional depth of superhero films with his iconic Dark Knight movie. Tim Burton brought a campy darkness and sense of style to the DC superhero movies. Batman is perhaps our grimmest superhero. His iteration is darker than any Dark Knight who has come before-which is saying something. With The Batman, Robert Pattinson becomes the eighth live-action Batman to fight Gotham’s most corrupt criminals on the silver screen. Hollywood cannot get enough of the Caped Crusader.
