The Batman

The Batman ★★★★½

In what I can only assume to be an homage to Batman '66, this movie is nearly nautical themed.

Stunning visuals and cinematography. Edge-of-your-seat storytelling. The casting is excellent.

Perfomance-wise, really everyone knocks it out of the park, but I think Paul Dano may have been the standout for me; completely unhinged once he's onscreen, he makes for an excellent villain and an interesting commentary and psychological study.

This movie is much more in-line with a psychological-horror-mystery such Se7en or Zodiac, rather than a titular-character origin, which is immediately noticeable and makes it so the actual plot has plenty of time to take off.
