Batman Begins
Batman Begins explores the origins of the Batman legend and the Dark Knight's emergence as a force for good in Gotham.
In the wake of his parents' murder, disillusioned industrial heir Bruce Wayne (Christian Bale) travels the world seeking the means to fight injustice and turn fear against those who prey on the fearful. He returns to Gotham and unveils his alter-ego: Batman, a masked crusader who uses his strength, intellect and an array of high tech deceptions to fight the sinister forces that threaten the city.

I like some of the campiness of the original Batman and admire what Nolan did for the comic book legend, but I also liked Tim Burton's original two Batmans as they were the first films.
This film started it all and I don't think it is for everyone, but it is a critically acclaimed film. Superhero movies in my opinion need to be more fun, but it's good to interpret the heroes differently and display it in a dark way. He started it and many others follow and try and copy in his path. The third sequel will air in a few months and will probably be an epic conclusion.Getting Batman Right - ABC99
Batman Begins is so good that it makes us
re-evaluate the other versions. It takes it subject seriously and takes crime seriously. Batman Begins is perfectly paced and amazingly make dressing up like a bat to fight crime seem plausable and serious.
Specials effects shots are subtle and effective and the action sequences have real weight to it. It has more great actors than it knows what to do with and is the start of great things to come.A Great Trilogy Begins!! - Movies4Robb
Now this movie has film intelligence behind it! Great directing on Christopher Nolan's part. I can't say enough about this movie, perhaps even better than the much-talked-about "The Dark Knight". Chris Nolan has brought amazing action scenes to this film...certainly not cheap. After viewing this movie, I'm so anxious to see the complete trilogy. A new beginning for Batman fans...or you'll become one after this movie!
