Batman Begins

When fate prevents him from avenging the deaths of his parents, young Bruce Wayne (Bale) flees to Asia where he seeks counsel from a dangerous ninja cult leader known as Ra's al Ghul (Watanabe). When he returns, Bruce finds that Gotham City has become overrun with crime and corruption, and that there are forces at work trying to remove him from his inherited place as the owner of Wayne Industries. Remembering the cave under his home from a fall during his childhood he takes on a new identity to prevent Gotham from getting worse.

I really liked this movie more so than the other batman movies. It explained a lot of what happened to make batman who he is and how he learned to fight the way he does. I thought the struggle of Bruce Wayne within himself as much as his foes showed the depth of the character more than ever. To me this movie takes you into the characters inner being and lets you feel his pain a little. I give this movie a 9 out of 10. If you are expecting this one to be like the other batman movies be prepared to be in awe but if you weren't a fan of the othrs than this movie will help you enjoy the story of batman to it's fullest.
