ripum853 writes: on Jul 14 2008 11:59 AM ...I guess New York isn't pleased with this film in general huh? Another reason for me to hate the place, other then the fact that I live in Philadelphia. Even the New Yorker's 'positive' review is mixed. (Reply to this) |

ripum853 writes: on Jul 14 2008 12:00 PM oops, nevermind...just noticed that they officially made the New Yorkers review a rotten one. Just that when I read it last night, it still seemed to be a bit more on the positive side. Ah well, New York still sucks. (Reply to this) |

freediro writes: on Jul 14 2008 12:02 PM yeah you have no credibility to say that, and you must be one of those full of themselves New Yorkers who think they have to hate something because you can't relate to it because it has nothing to new with New York. Seriously did you actually watch the movie? (Reply to this) |

o D Lusion o writes: on Jul 14 2008 12:10 PM Regardless of this poor review, it's still going to be amazing. Considering his synopsis is "noisy, jumbled, and sadistic" he's obviously not a good critic, when other top critics reviewed it far better. Oh, and why did he feel the urge to call Gary Oldman a "Pretentious Englishman"? (Reply to this) |

thadisturber14 writes: on Jul 14 2008 12:16 PM "Forget Gotham City%u2014or Anton Furst%u2019s splendid Gothic Gotham of Tim Burton%u2019s Batman, which summoned up the freaky superhero%u2019s inner landscape of vaulted arches and gargoyles. " You sir are officially being dubbed the Conductor of THE Burton BandWagon. ALL ABOOOAAARRRDDD!! Welcome to 2008, where the movie viewers WANT " a modern, untransformed Manhattan, where the Joker%u2019s opening bank heist unfolds in a tense, realistic style with multiple point-blank shootings. It%u2019s a shock%u2014and very effective%u2014to see a comic-book villain come on like a Quentin Tarantino reservoir dog." Oh and this "On paper, the morality play is intriguing, but a lot of the dialogue should have stayed on paper..." I guess along with being leader of the Burton Bandwagon youve also decided to be first source on screenwriting and dialogue. Again, another case of old man who doesnt understand Batman and just cant get it through to himself that this is what we've been waiting for in a Batman Film. (Reply to this) |

rle4lunch writes: on Jul 14 2008 12:19 PM In reply to this comment (#1870066) Yes, obviously this man hates Chicago, and was upset over the lost revenue from the Warner Bros that they didn't film it in NYC. See how dumb that sounds? You guys' and your knee-jerk reactions to 3 negative reviews... Wow. (Reply to this) |

Ireland914 writes: on Jul 14 2008 12:23 PM ... kinda what they were going for, isn't it? Noisy? Well, it is an action movie. I don't think gunfire, fast cars, and explosions are supposed to be quiet. Jumbled? The Joker is trying to spread chaos and increase Gotham's crime rate! How much more jumbled does it get? Sadistic? Come on... It's Batman. He's a very troubled and tortured guy. Of course it was sadistic. What the hell were you expecting, honestly? (Reply to this) |

burns826 writes: on Jul 14 2008 12:44 PM What is with these critics saying the movie is too dark. They go in expecting lame a light-hearted superhero action comedy. This is not iron man or spiderman or hellboy. This is a crime drama. Did these New Yorkers make a pact to ruin the 100% because the movie was filmed in Chicago. Yeah they are pissed that Chicago basically owns them right now, movie wise and baseball wise. The Yankees and Mets both blow. (Reply to this) |
