"I'm vengeance!" Against all odds, Robert Pattinson dons the iconic cowl in Matt Reeves' latest take on Gotham's guardian. Arguably darker and more violent than any iteration before it, this new film follows Batman and Jim Gordon as they unravel the mystery behind The Riddler's crazed killing spree. In this episode, we review this near-three-hour monster of a film and discuss if The Batman lives up to the hype, Matt Reeves' singular vision for this franchise, as well as what this means for the DC Extended Universe and superhero movies moving forward.
