. TheBatman is a grim and heavy take on the superhero that's worth the three-hour sit, PhilVillarreal says.
TUCSON, Ariz. —"The Batman" runs for three hours, and by the end of it you feel as battered, bruised and weighed-down as Batman must feel while romping around the Gotham City rooftops in his cowl, bulletproof chest plating and cape getup.
Director Matt Reeves does an excellent job of establishing his despair-ridden take on Gotham City, but falls too much in love with his lingering asides and subplots that don't go anywhere. A ruthless edit could have chopped this unwieldy beast of a movie into a svelte, impactful story. I had reservations with Robert Pattinson as Batman, but he proves to be a ferocious and confident hero, with smoldering expressions and a fierce persona. If anything, he's tougher to buy as a high-society type as Bruce Wayne.
Also along for the ride are criminal overlord Penguin , slinking femme fatale Catwoman , Jeffrey Wright as steadfast top cop James Gordon and Andy Serkis as Batman's gruff assistant, Alfred Pennyworth.
