Chapter 520 Disagreements
After the premiere, Dante Cortez and Noel, whom he had just met, talked about their views on the movie.

“I think the best part of the film is actually the first half, the process of Bruce Wayne going from being lost to finding himself and regaining his faith.

A hero is not a hero from the beginning, there is always a process of growth. "

"That's right," Noel agreed. "Heroes are necessary and needed. Superheroes like Bruce Wayne have spiritual attributes far greater than their own abilities."

The two of them got along better and better as they talked, and then they found a bar to continue talking about their views on the movie.

Noel said: "Christian Bale had been in B-movies and independent films before, and he had been in Empire of the Sun, a Spielberg film, when he was 13.

I have to say that Director Gilbert Jr. has a really good eye for selecting actors.”

"Yes, Christian Bale has a kind of bright and dark temperament, which is very suitable for the complex inner role of Bruce Wayne."

Dante Cortez mentioned another thing: "I heard that Marvel Studios is about to prepare its first movie, the story of Iron Man. How do you think Gilbert Jr. will plan this project?"

"I don't know about that," Noel shook his head and said, "But Marvel and DC have different temperaments. I guess Iron Man won't be as bitter and resentful as Batman, and won't bear as many responsibilities."

These two are the kind of fans who have their own thoughts and can see more things in the film. However, many fans are just watching for fun. The first half is a bit boring, but the second half is very exciting.

Especially the excellent experience of IMAX conquered all movie fans.

"I strongly recommend everyone to watch the IMAX version of 'Batman Begins', it's really great."

"It's an unparalleled movie-watching experience. The IMAX format of "The Dark Knight" looks incredibly spectacular."

"Director Gilbert Jr. breaks away from the rhythm of past superhero movies, and even most Hollywood movies.

With superb visual performance, music, script, dialogue design, action scenes, etc., it takes us into a real Gotham. "

"I can only say one thing, the real shots look much better than the special effects shots. Reality and immersion are what superhero movies need most."

"Gilbert's Batman movie focuses on how Bruce Wayne becomes Batman, as well as his training and equipment development as a rookie Batman.

There is no doubt that this is something that previous Batman movies did not give us, and we can see it all in this movie.

I heard this is a brand new trilogy series. I think the first movie is good. I hope the rest will get better and better like The Return of the King. "

Of course, it is normal for some people to like a movie and some not. In order to explain Batman's growth process, Gilbert Jr. has a lot of literary and inner drama, just like an independent movie.

For viewers who like simple or large-scale action scenes, the first half of the film is a bit boring.

The most criticized aspect of the film is the use of flashbacks and interpolations in its narrative techniques, which makes it difficult to understand the plot.

A typical scene is that Bruce Wayne's parents are shot to death, and then in the next scene, Bruce Wayne's father appears again in the flashback of the conversation with Henry Ducard.

The most important thing is that this scene is very short, only a dozen seconds.

If you get distracted for a moment because the first half of the plot is boring, you will miss a lot of scenes, which will undoubtedly make it difficult to understand the plot.

So it is understandable that some viewers gave negative reviews.

Although some people like and some don't like the rhythm and narrative style of the film, there is no doubt that everyone enjoyed the action scenes in the second half. The most popular scene is probably the beast-like Batmobile rushing around!
The best part of this version of Batman is undoubtedly the action scenes, which are much better than Nolan's version. The final battle scene is also exciting enough to make fans unable to stop watching.

However, some film critics have different opinions. They think that the first half of the film is very good, very good, but the second half is a bit redundant and superfluous.

According to one of the film critics, Gilbert Jr. should have delved deeper into Bruce Wayne's inner world and brought out his inner pain and struggle.

Now this film is overly commercially made and is a failed Batman movie.

We should just listen to what these film critics say. With the current film market environment and the rise of the Internet, film critics are no longer as glorious as they were in the 1980s, 1990s and 2000s.

Today, they can only be active during award season and still make a difference.

Big-name film critics, such as Roger Ebert, have already found a way out for themselves and become famous film critics in the Internet age.

The same goes for Kenneth Turan. Both of them seem to have mastered the code to making a fortune in the Internet age and have gradually shifted their focus to the Internet.

But in fact, the Internet is not yet at its most developed stage today. When smartphones become commercially mature and mobile Internet is developed, the internet celebrity economy will probably take off.

Gilbert Jr. never cared about the opinions of these film critics, and he cared even less after winning the Oscar for Best Director.

For Gilbert Jr., pleasing the audience is the first priority, and movies that the audience likes are the movies he wants to make.

Before this, Gilbert Jr. had suggested to Warner that they should not hire so many film critics and waste money on public relations expenses.

However, Warner Bros. felt unsafe due to the failure of the previous Batman movie, so it invited some film critics, and as expected, it was criticized.

But there is no need to worry. Once I become strong enough, there will be great scholars to argue for me. Even Roger Ebert, the most influential film critic in the United States, stands on the side of little Gilbert.

"The film tells a complete and rich story of how Bruce Wayne became Batman, from self-doubt to his temper and his return to justice.

The characters' inner emotions are also real and rich. It is an excellent start to the series. Among all the existing movies, this Batman is the most charming. "

Roger Ebert wrote a film review on his social account, which immediately received a lot of likes from loyal fans.

The premiere was in Chicago, so he didn't have to travel around, and the next day he recorded a film review program. In the program, he criticized those film critics who were "seeking fame and reputation", saying that they didn't understand movies at all.

"I can't think of a better superhero movie than 'Batman Begins.' If that's not great, then what are other superhero movies?"

Roger Ebert continued earnestly: "I advise you to first understand the concept of filmmaking and art.

Little Gilbert's movie is quite good, why did you give it a bad review?
Huh? You don't even care about your face anymore."

I wonder if General Fan would find this sentence familiar. However, other critics who gave bad reviews were not as thick-skinned as Kenneth Turan, who was scolded by Roger Ebert.

After the premiere, Gilbert Jr. and the main creators returned to Los Angeles and held a meeting with Warner's publicity and distribution department.

The film will be officially released across the United States next Friday, but Gilbert Jr. has to go to Istanbul, so the task of roadshow promotion can only be left to other creators.
