'The Batman' is a bleak, faithful reinvention of the caped crusader

To quote film critic Roger Ebert, “Batman isn’t a comic book anymore.”The caped crusader’s cinematic history has repeatedly challenged the status quo of the comic book film genre. Tim Burton’s 1989 “Batman” showed that superhero stories weren’t just campy escapades for kids to enjoy. Christopher Nolan’s “The Dark Knight” showed how these stories and characters can provide vital commentary for today’s day and age.This time around, Matt Reeves’ “The Batman” is a dark, violent, brutal and cerebral...
