My opinion on the Christopher Nolan trilogy of The Batman

      Batman has been very popular with audiences these past decades, and probably one of the most respectable super heroes, of all time.  Batman is known for protecting Gotham city from crime, and for his exotic weapons.  He is fearless, strong, powerful, and seeks justice.  Batman originally was comic book, but later it was adapted into movies in the mid 1900s.  I have only seen the Christopher Nolan series, which is the most recent sequel that was produced.  The sequel includes, Batman Begins, The Dark Night, and The Dark Night Rises.  The director, Christopher Nolan did a phenomenal job in directing the Batman movies.  All three of the movies were fantastic, thrilling, captivating, and was a modern masterpiece that goes beyond your expectations for an action movie. 
      What stood out of this trilogy than the other Batman movies before this, was the fact that Nolan knew how to capture the audiences attention.  The trilogy had a main character that was unforgettable, Christian Bale is simply charming and has the personality and the looks to become Batman on television.  Bruce Wayne, the flawed but self-sacrificing character is a complex and deep character, and Nolan's films presented him as the type of hero he was born to be.  Nolan did not portray him as the typical superhero that is good, fighting evil villains to save the world.  He captured Bruce Wayne as a typical person who has suffered insecurities and loss hoping to avenge his parent's death by getting rid of crime, proving that a typical man could be a superhero.  The special effects Nolan created was exceptional, the explosions in the Dark Knight Rises were so real, and the sounds were over the top.  The villains in the film were frightening, mysterious, and psychotic.  In the Dark Knight, Jack Nicholson who played the Joker was mysterious and showed the darkness in each of us.  He wasn't your typical villain that hopes to gain something by doing bad, but he was a psychopath that terrorized people to show his dark side.  Nolan brought a great team on set during the Batman trilogy, Moran Freeman, Christian Bale, Anne Hathaway, and Tom Hardy.  The actors and actresses knew how to carry out their role.  Nolan also knew how to write the sequel for Batman.  The storyline was complex but interesting.   In Batman begins, he talks about how Batman became Batman, his second one was about the joker and the third one was his last one that concluded him being done with crime fighting and have Robin take his place.
