Midnight Opening, sparsely attended. Such is the legacy the last couple Batman "epics" has left..This movie will revive the franchise, if the various gods that hold sway over our fickle culture let this gem slip through...
Christian Bale, fresh off of "the Machinist", used this opportunity to put the weight back on in the correct places. His is a fierce Batman. Michael Caine plays the "younger" Alfred, Morgan Freeman and Rutger Hauer both make appearances. The Scarecrow is played by the guy from "28 Days Later", Cilian Murphy. Disregard the still photos of the Scarecrow costume you may have seen, like "Sin City" the stills do not do it justice.
