Except, you know, saving Marion from someone who would have tortured and murdered her.
Actually, if you think on ironies, they'd have never found the Ark if it wasn't for Indiana Jones.

It occurs to me that Batman did not succeed at anything in this movie. He solved some riddles after each crime, but didn't prevent a single crime. Didn't catch the Riddler. He was just playing catch up until Riddler let himself be caught. Didn't stop the final bomb plan. The one thing he did was help some folks out of the wreckage at the end, but that was his only accomplishment in this film. It's like Raiders of the Lost Ark (where Indy achieves nothing in the whole movie).
Still loved it though.
Reminded me very much of Rorschach's voice-over from "Watchmen."It reminded me of so many comic book openings. A traditional Batman 'I am the night' voiceover.
Also, it's Taxi Driver.
Also Taxi Driver!Reminded me very much of Rorschach's voice-over from "Watchmen."
Best line of the movie: "They think that I'm in the darkness. I am the darkness." Whether he's actually there or not, he's there, because they fear that he is.Also Taxi Driver!
You can, you very much can.Sometimes I think you can't be Noir (or Neonoir) without a dramatic voiceover in the start of the movie
Batman never really succeeds anyway. Villain kills someone, Batman tracks down villain and beats him up. Villain winds up back in Arkham and inevitably escapes, killing again.It occurs to me that Batman did not succeed at anything in this movie.

Even going so far as change his name to Alex Ferns and joining the cast of Eastenders!The big name actors allowed themselves to get immersed and disappear in the roles. Russell Crowe, who only had a bit part, did solid work as Commissioner Savage.
