The Batman - Avis

...there’s no shortage of brooding in Matt Reeves’s bloated three-hour take on the DC Comics superhero.

A classy turn from Pattinson, however, as the crime fighter with an injured soul.

...this is a long dark (k)night of the soul that keeps the caped crusader in the spotlight, and is better for it. Talk about a comeback.

...a gripping, beautifully shot, neo-noir take on an age-old character.

With his doleful kohl-smudged eyes and trapezoidal jawline, he's more like a tragic prince from Shakespeare; a lost soul bent like a bat out of hell on saving everyone but himself.
