A Batman for the present age? It seemed right vs. wrong wasn’t always clear, the world felt gritty and compromised, and our protagonist didn’t seem like he even wanted the job of superhero. Okay, spoiler alert (but no big surprise), the good guys win, but it doesn’t feel nearly as satisfying as it usually does when superheroes end up on top. I was hoping the redemptive perspective might be that they don’t make another one like this, but the reviews tell me I may have to skip the next one!
