To start of, this one was not bad. It came a little bit over my expectations. I was quite impressed by all the "stunts" and effects and so on. Watching all the jumping and chasing and fast going action I felt the usual, and maybe above usual, Batman action-style. On the other hand, though, something really pulled me back to earth and this in particular and mostly was the toll factor. You can't have that much killing in a Batman movie! I understand it has all to do with the plot, but at least it shouldn't have been so "in your face" kind of deaths, a little more discreet if you prefer. I for one have watched if not every Batman movie and don't currently remember so many dead guys from all of them in one compared to this particular piece.For instance, for me seeing the joker getting killed in The Return of The Joker was as shocking and wowing as seeing pornographic footage involved, let alone so much death. The storyline although is nicely put together, but I do think that it's kind of slow in the beginning, hastily accelerating in the end. When all the commotion is gone and the movie is just about to end you get this feeling of anxiety because you wish for 10-15 minutes to be added. I'm not even mentioning my disappointment for The Joker's voice, but i guess the producers have their reasons.
To summarize, it's a nice film and most Batman fans should be satisfied enough, but it won't be any surprise if you feel somewhat annoyed and declare that it could've been way better.
