Allow me to agree. This is the film I've been dreaming of since I was 13. As simple as it should have been, we finally got a movie about Batman.

All his gadgets and equipment made sense and were given a realistic precedent. This made the eventual appearance of "psycho dude in a bat-suit" believable, and for me, this is what the success of the movie hinged on. It was nice to see Lucius Fox, who in a lot of ways is a character necessary for making Batman believable, in the movie.

I'd say the overall tone of the film was closest to the Neal Adams era Batman (of course with a lot of modified "Year One" origin stuff).

Also interesting that the "Mask of Zorro" was replaced with, I'm guessing, Wagner's "Die Fledermaus."
