Rankings:

Superhero Moment
4/5

“I’M BATMAN.”

Casting
4/5

Christian Bale isn’t my favorite Batman, but Cilian Murphy as Crane, and Gary Oldman as Detective Gordon were fantastic.

Costume
4/5

Much better than previous versions. This has the weird neck though.

Theme Song
3/5

Notes

I feel like this gets overlooked because of how good The Dark Knight is, but this was still a fantastic re-introduction to the character.
