Happy Thursday everyone? Yep sorry about that but Matt was out of town for work so the guys are a day late and definitely more than a dollar short. For today’s review we chat about The Batman (2022) starring Robert Pattinson and Zoe Kravitz. Not bat topics include concerts, comic artist Dave Beaty, and Oscar predictions.
I am not sure if the world really needed another incarnation of Batman after Christopher Nolan and Christen Bale’s incredible trilogy but hey we got one anyways. The Batman (2022) is a great film with a stellar cast, amazing story, and gritty cinematography but man is it long. This is not your typical superhero action flick. Yes there is action in this movie but it is more of a detective noir akin to the DC Detective comics. It's a breath of fresh air in a time where superhero CGI action rules the box office. Robert Pattison did a good job as Batman but especially Bruce Wayne. The real standout though was Colin Farrell, wow just wow Colin!
Matt and Mike agree The Batman (2022) is a great film but it is not a must watch unless you are big into Batman, DC, or superheroes. It will be streaming on HBO Max soon enough. Matt back to form really liked The Batman (2022) awarding it 4 out of 5 Reels. Mike on the other hand thought it was good but very slow, lengthy, and boring at times. He awards it 3.5 out of 5 Reels.
For next week’s podcast Mike wants to continue our Best Picture nominee watchlist with the Apple TV+ Original CODA starring Emilia Jones and Marleee Martin. Thanks for listening and reading to the end of our show notes. Chat at you next week!
