Tony Baker deserves so much more popularity than he gets. He’s funny, talented, a great person, and he needs to be in movies, tv shows, national stand ups. He deserves to blow up.
Robert Pattinson was walking around, giving thugs concrete naps, to anyone who wanted it. #TheBatman is a dope movie experience; watch it in IMAX if you can.
I actually thought this was the best depiction of Batman so far, the way he would stare at people without saying anything, how he fought, and the way he would solved crimes and riddles. The way criminals would look down a dark alley and be afraid of the shadows, not even knowing if Batman was lurking there, I thought was a great aspect of the movie.
Didn’t care for Pattinson as Bruce Wayne but his look and the way he acted fit the context of the movie. At the end of movie how everything came back full circle I think he realized his mistakes and will try to be a better Bruce in the sequels. Love how sloppy Batman kind of was in this as well. Very fitting, Reeves did a hell of a job bringing the characters and Gotham to life.
I think you're on point regarding what you said about Pattinson as he was playing Bruce Wayne. This Bruce Wayne wasn't supposed to have the same swagger as Affleck nor Keaton nor any of the others. He was supposed to be a sleep-deprived social recluse who was trying to find his balance between being the Batman and being Bruce and that was how RP portrayed him.
I can't wait for the next one. Agreed with you on the fight scenes. I hope the next one they implement Bruce's ability to throw more gadgets and decisiveness into the fights like he does in any of the animated versions.
The only movie review that matters. Your comedy has saved my life Tony. As someone who has attempted suicide, I can say without a shadow of a doubt that you sir are a godsend. Thank you and God bless you. And shout out to Sabrina in the shadows. That New York accent is top tier.
I lost my brother to suicide. You don’t think you matter but when you gone it crushes everyone around you. You don’t know how much you impact other people. Hang in there and know that other people do value you.
This was a 3 hour movie, felt like an hour. That's how good this movie, this story was. People love the Dark Knight series because of the Joker's and Bane's acting. But those stories were God awful. The Batman's story was well told, like in the Arkham games. I was absorbed.
This Batman is DCs best. The movie is based off the comic books from the 80s. And there is a reason why DC stands for Detective Comics. The Batman is DCs Sherlock Holmes.
I loved the Batman. Robert Pattinson as Bruce Wayne was perfect for Year 2 Batman. He was intended to be Reclusive as Bruce Wayne was in the year 1 comic. I have a feeling that in the next Batman movie he's going to be a more extroverted Bruce Wayne
Most people I've heard talk about the movie gave the critique that Robert Pattison was a good Batman but not a good Bruce Wayne, but like you mentioned in the context of the movie it made sense. You don't even have to be familiar with the comics imo to see that because I think they did a good job explaining that in the movie; this Bruce Wayne wasn't quite the Bruce Wayne we know and he also isn't the Batman we know. This movie in a way felt like an origin story for Bruce Wayne and Batman's identities. This movie makes a great transition for the next move with recluse Bruce becoming the sociable, playboy, philanthropic Bruce we love and vengeful, dark, somewhat gritty Batman becoming more of a symbol of hope. I think Robert Pattison can be charming so if he turns on the charm for the next movie which I believe is already the plan it will definitely be a hit.
That Martha Kent rescue scene from Batman vs Superman was amazingly choreographed. It's like the choreography team studied the combat from the Arkham game series and captured it live action.
YES!!!!!! This The Batman Felt like those arkham games regarding the story. But that fight scene is BVS was probably the closest we will ever get to that style of fighting in a movie. That scene was better than all fight scenes in all batman movies ever
I grew up watching Roger and Ebert critic movies and a few other European American men but other then “Men on Films” from In Living Color, I have never seen one of us do a serious critic of movies. Thank you! You’re doing an excellent job with your reviews.
His Bruce Wayne look is a modern era look for today's society. When you're young you haven't developed that grown mature suave look just yet so it was by design.
No Tony this was awesome amazing. I never sat up in my chair at the movies. Except for the heath ledger as joker until this batman I was still on the jokers side I never rooted for the bad guy until heath. But this batman had me like wow! Oh yeah
There's no difference between Bruce Wayne and Batman in this movie. I'm okay with that because he's barely in the public eye. I don't like when people say he's emo he's still broken from losing his parents; he never got over it which is why he's Batman. This movie was a 10/10 for me.
I think Robert’s Bruce Wayne hasn’t separated his Batman life with his Bruce Wayne life. Since he’s still young, new, and upset, he hasn’t mastered having those two personalities separated, in the next batman I think he will have a better spilt personality on the two
The movie uses these subtle parallels between Batman , Catwoman and The Riddler in which it depicts that their real selves is when they're in costume. Bruce Wayne is the persona he is slowly realizing Batman needs to create. The reason he can't feel like Bruce Wayne is because he hasn't grasped the need to be Bruce Wayne ( The Billionaire playboy Prince of Gotham) yet. Some of the genius of this movie is what it doesn't say. It refuses to spoon feed the audience. Like who the Riddler actually is and why he's on the journey he's in. It is never said out loud. It forces us to pay attention and see those answers by ourselves. That is so not Hollywood.
I understand the detective aspect of the movie, but it wasn't enough to keep me interested. Movie felt like it ran longer than it should've. Hope it gradually gets better into the next films. Batman the character deserves it. Solid review on your end tho.
I hope all the people that had problems with Ben Affleck's Batman killing, have the same energy for Pattinson Batman, because as dope as that car chase was Batman was definitely the cause of a number of deaths during that scene 😁
I like that the movie showed how Bruce is much more confident and comfortable in the costume as Batman than he is outside of it. I actually like Val Kilmer's Batman. And I wonder if I'm the only one who could see this version of Batman growing into Val Kilmer's version of Batman 🧐
This has to be the weirdest Batman just because of how he is easily mixing in with crowds throughout this whole movie. Batman embraces shadow (Is the shadows), not a tank that just bulldozes his way through the scene. Emo Bruce Wayne seemed a tad annoying. The deleted Joker scene would definitely have fared better than what we got in the movie.
I fully agree with the last act, it seemed random in the sense of how it compared to previous events. I also wasn’t feeling Robert Pattinson as Bruce Wayne, but as Batman he was good!
We weren’t suppose to care for Pattinson’s Bruce Wayne. Since this is gonna be trilogy, I expect Matt Reeves to handle Bruce’s development like how he did the apes in the planet of the apes trilogy. The Batman movie was an origin film of the young Batman to soon become the Batman we know of. Soon we should see Pattinson learning the duality of being Bruce Wayne & becoming the Batman so it’s not so easy to believe one is the other since both are reclusive as hell
I think thats the point EVERYONE misses…he WASN’T Bruce Wayne. That mask was NOT created/nor was he still embracing his name (somethibg mentioned and a theme in the movie). He was still empty. He was still growing. He was trying to find his way. Thats the point. Next movie we will see him more as Bruce Wayne. Cuz there are other images and movies (like Tenent) where yhere is a Bruce Wayne somewhere; you also see him doijg that as the movie progresses coupled with some KEY VISUAL CUES THAT SHOW him bringing back Bruce. But in this movie-Bruce was still hiding; like Pattinson said he was “Vengeance”.
Agreed! And I think that is important to this story. He was, like Tony said, bucking against Bruce Wayne. He didn't want that life and it showed. I was happy. Plus... Bruce Wayne, imo, is boring. If I wanna see a spoiled Billionaire I would stay in real life!
Definitely has room to grow as Bruce Wayne, but that's on purpose. Year 2 Batman is a bit emo, and wants nothing to do with Bruce Wayne/Wayne Enterprises/playboy socialite. But as Batman, he was incredible. Only up from here.
I think it was intentional not to really like him as Bruce Wayne. He didn’t like himself. Sometimes when people are trying to find themselves they can be a version of themselves no one likes. I agree with the 4 saxophones and Tony’s assessment of the ending.
This was by far the best Batman as far as story telling, character development, and Thomas and Martha Wayne actually contributing to the story. I love how Gotham was an actual character in the movie and Arkham is finally gonna be in this. It's like the Arkham games in movie form. Emo Bruce is better than Playboy Bruce. Playboy Bruce is played out. Enough about the money. I also love that Batman was finally portrayed as a detective which is his entire thing "world's greatest detective". I also loved that he was barely out of costume. Even Zoe bodied Catwoman. Colin Farrell as Penguin was MINDBLOWING. Jeffrey as Gordon is a better matchup than fries and ketchup. I dont wanna hear about Christopher Nolan EVER again!
Great review, however I definitely disagree about Val Kilmore as Batman. I actually think he was one of the best Bruce Waynes. George was the worst to me by far. Roberts Bruce Wayne I think will eventually come to his own. He definitely was not interested in the shenanigans in this movie. 🤣
Who should be the next Batman villain Colin Farrell as Pingwing. he was in this movie but less screen time but next more time screen . we should look forward for Two Face teaming with pingwing. Also introduce Bane or The new Deadstroke or Rash Agul. ??
I really never thought that much about it. Only thing I've ever said was batman's going sparkly now. You know just joking around like you know twilight you know just normal shit but I never said anything about him being bad I was like hey who knows he played a vampire and they're so close to bats who knows maybe this will give him the vibe he needed to get rid of the twilight years he's been trying to get rid of. And I loved this movie he was awesome and if he made another one I'd definitely see it.
Saw Tony Baker last night at the Louisville Comedy Club and now I see this on my feed…it feels like Christmas morning!! Love your content and your jokes - keep up the good work!
Agreed Tony! Outside the suit, he wasn’t appealing but the look of Gotham City and Gordon made it a pretty solid movie. Loved the detective story though! 💯👏🏾👏🏾
Yo Tony, I like the break down and though I haven't seen the movie just Zoe Kravitz as Catwoman is motivation enough. As for the elbow fighting style from the Nolan series, its a Spanish Martial Art called Keysi Fighting Method. I wish they incorporated different martial arts into his bag (ju jitsu, wushu, kung fu, muay thai etc). I also wanted the Riddler to be the the third villain in Nolan's series because he fantastic with cerebral driven plots and characters. My hot take is that the third movie was the worst of the trilogy and only Bane's character development made it interesting.
They backed off of the Cinematic Universe craziness and went with a more realistic but more 1940s Noir Batman that was closer to true origin Batman style esque. And it was really cool to see. It would definitely be a major setback to anyone younger expecting the only Batman they know, which is a high flying speedy kung fu cinematic super soldier with inhuman strength. But that's not really a takeaway when you consider this is not trying to be that. This is classic "The Batman". It was realistic enough as a detective film that you could almost see this Batman in the real world lol.
He looked more like the Crow than Batman. But I thank the cinematic deities they didn't visit Patterson on the crow. This was one of those movies where the supporting characters outshone the main one. To date I haven't seen a film where Patterson fits his role/character seamlessly. Except twilight, couldn't finish any one of those movies just ask me to stare unblinking at the sun instead.
When they enter Riddler's apartment it was very **SEVEN**ish. My man had hundreds of notebooks, various different hangings, & the floor BEING CARVED UP. When police in a movie see carpet they should call "We need CSU." Pull up that carpet and take a look
Tony. Man. I just saw this movie and I agree with most of what you are saying. I am hoping if they are going to do another that he grows into the Bruce Character. He gave me an angry adolescent guy vibe. I like how they mixed Ny and Chicago Astethic together to create a great Gotham City. Clark Street in Chicago's Downtown never looked darker. lol. I had no idea that the Penguin was Colin Farrell Wow! I love Jeffery Wright period. That cat could read the directions to put IKEA shelves together and i would be all in. Zoe Kravitz was great and yes i kept saying the same thing about Zoe. I Kept seeing her dad's face and her mom's face then Her face! Like Gotdamn... LOL. What you need girl!? Man. I am someone who loves a good villain. The Riddler was not goofy he was mad cerebral which i loved. Who was that Joker at the end? I am super curious. I liked the movie more than I didn't like it.
When I heard Heath Ledger was cast as Joker I was like "10 things I hate about you guy" NO WAY!!!!! Then I ate my words!!! lol.... that's what I was hoping with Robert.... but I was thoroughly disappointed.
It's awesome you get the mood Batman was trying to get. But what I get is like how Tony Stark wasn't Ironman yet till after Civil War. I think that's what they are going for is Batman is developing Bruce Wayne. But we'll have to wait till the Batman 2
"All Day and a Night" is the name of that Netflix film that Jeffrey Wright played the father in. I thought it was a "okay" movie. Very slow burn and very different seeing him like that. It was just okay. But I degrees, we are not here for "that movie" breakdown lol
Not hating but the only thing I don’t like about doing the movie reviews during the episode is we don’t get the spoiler part anymore and I love when Tone goes into detail about film. It’s like watching someone paint something
Minor Spoilers but nothing plot related. The wearhouse scene is by far one of the most badass batman fights on film (thabk you BvS), but the first time he goes to the iceberg lounge looking for penguin or when he's fighting riddlers snipers during the climax i found a lot of good moments that made me think of Arkham and that wearhouse scene. But that's also personal opinion.
I feel like Robert Pattinson would have been better as Night Wing. He was good as Batman, but I can see him better as Dick Grayson. The movie did mention Bludhaven. Although he was ok as Batman he was terrible as Bruce Wayne.
@@raebeingreal2170 I understand an it was good that they didn't have him go to the company meet Lucius Fox or any of that. Even still Bruce not supposed to look like he just got out of rehab other than that he was a good Batman.
Hey Tony, Pattinson has done alot of movies since Twilight. Check out Good Time, Lost City of Z, and Tenet. I agree Zoe Kravitz was a way better Catwoman than Anne Hathaway.
I just don’t want anything to be better the heathe ledger and Christian bale movies. Imma watch it tho. Also I commented this before I watched this video… you the greatest dawg
Tony Baker deserves so much more popularity than he gets. He’s funny, talented, a great person, and he needs to be in movies, tv shows, national stand ups. He deserves to blow up.
All fax
This is true, but maybe TB don't want it🤔
He should’ve been a voice in that DC Super pets movie with Dwayne Johnson and Kevin Hart
I can tell he's denied some contracts
Man I felt EVERY piece of positivity in this comment. I agree with everything you said!! 💯
Robert Pattinson was walking around, giving thugs concrete naps, to anyone who wanted it. #TheBatman is a dope movie experience; watch it in IMAX if you can.
That I did.
Concrete naps tho 😂😂👏🏾👏🏾💯
@@jonnycashh3876 yknow when you go take a quick nap but then you wake up an hour later…
That’s that concrete nap, my boy 😂
Colin Farrell is not getting enough credits for his great role
I agree about giving actors a chance. I never thought Heath would do what he did with The Joker.
I actually thought this was the best depiction of Batman so far, the way he would stare at people without saying anything, how he fought, and the way he would solved crimes and riddles. The way criminals would look down a dark alley and be afraid of the shadows, not even knowing if Batman was lurking there, I thought was a great aspect of the movie.
Didn’t care for Pattinson as Bruce Wayne but his look and the way he acted fit the context of the movie. At the end of movie how everything came back full circle I think he realized his mistakes and will try to be a better Bruce in the sequels.
Love how sloppy Batman kind of was in this as well. Very fitting, Reeves did a hell of a job bringing the characters and Gotham to life.
Hopefully the wb don't screw him up as the previous studio did with his Hangover movies
I think you're on point regarding what you said about Pattinson as he was playing Bruce Wayne. This Bruce Wayne wasn't supposed to have the same swagger as Affleck nor Keaton nor any of the others.

Only breakdown I’ve heard that actually makes sense of what’s on the screen instead of whining about what they thought it should have been. THANK YOU

@@Anthonycheesman33I’m really rarely offended by comments but this one got me, woow watch yourself
@@cairocowboy3233 it’s one scene one scene lol
@@Anthonycheesman33 you’re right, but you have to admit that one scene was the best scene any Batman fan could ask for fightwise.
This movie was amazing. Definitely feeling the detective aspect because we never really see that.
Bruce Wayne in this movie felt more like Terry Mcginnis to me, but this movie was amazing ngl.
"He was very elbow-y". So true. 😂
We need more of your reviews brother. You are truly one of the best at movie reviews 🍿 🎥
I grew up watching Roger and Ebert critic movies and a few other European American men but other then “Men on Films” from In Living Color, I have never seen one of us do a serious critic of movies. Thank you! You’re doing an excellent job with your reviews.
His Bruce Wayne look is a modern era look for today's society. When you're young you haven't developed that grown mature suave look just yet so it was by design.
No Tony this was awesome amazing. I never sat up in my chair at the movies. Except for the heath ledger as joker until this batman I was still on the jokers side I never rooted for the bad guy until heath. But this batman had me like wow! Oh yeah
I agree that Ben Affleck's fight scene where he goes to save Martha is a dope fight scene!
To me it felt like I was playing arkham knight felt like i was going through different missions which was dope it was shot very well too
I liked it and I think there is definitely space to explore a Batman that hasn't learnt the importance of being Bruce Wayne as well.
There's no difference between Bruce Wayne and Batman in this movie. I'm okay with that because he's barely in the public eye. I don't like when people say he's emo he's still broken from losing his parents; he never got over it which is why he's Batman. This movie was a 10/10 for me.
Totally agree with you
I think Robert’s Bruce Wayne hasn’t separated his Batman life with his Bruce Wayne life. Since he’s still young, new, and upset, he hasn’t mastered having those two personalities separated, in the next batman I think he will have a better spilt personality on the two
I’ve been saying that about the Nolan trilogy fight scenes!! Why tf was he always using his elbows!? 🥴🤣🤣
The movie uses these subtle parallels between Batman , Catwoman and The Riddler in which it depicts that their real selves is when they're in costume. Bruce Wayne is the persona he is slowly realizing Batman needs to create. The reason he can't feel like Bruce Wayne is because he hasn't grasped the need to be Bruce Wayne ( The Billionaire playboy Prince of Gotham) yet.

It forces us to pay attention and see those answers by ourselves. That is so not Hollywood.
Read Batman year 1 this is exactly how batman is in those early years
I understand the detective aspect of the movie, but it wasn't enough to keep me interested. Movie felt like it ran longer than it should've. Hope it gradually gets better into the next films. Batman the character deserves it. Solid review on your end tho.
Yeah that's how Bruce Wayne was he didn't become the philanthropist until he got the Batman down and had to make an alter ego.
🎷 🎷 🎷 🎷 was surprising. The visuals were great but the movie was underwhelming and felt a bit amateur at times
That smooth jazz turnaround gets me every time!
EVERY TIME
I think the movie was good enough to wait for the 2nd one to see him develop into the billionaire playboy.
Ben Affleck's custome and him being like 6'4" he looked amazing
I hope all the people that had problems with Ben Affleck's Batman killing, have the same energy for Pattinson Batman, because as dope as that car chase was Batman was definitely the cause of a number of deaths during that scene 😁
Ehh I'd say Penguin was more at fault unless you wanna argue him chasing him caused all of that, only to let him go right after the chase was over.
I like that the movie showed how Bruce is much more confident and comfortable in the costume as Batman than he is outside of it.
I actually like Val Kilmer's Batman. And I wonder if I'm the only one who could see this version of Batman growing into Val Kilmer's version of Batman 🧐
This has to be the weirdest Batman just because of how he is easily mixing in with crowds throughout this whole movie. Batman embraces shadow (Is the shadows), not a tank that just bulldozes his way through the scene. Emo Bruce Wayne seemed a tad annoying. The deleted Joker scene would definitely have fared better than what we got in the movie.
I fully agree with the last act, it seemed random in the sense of how it compared to previous events. I also wasn’t feeling Robert Pattinson as Bruce Wayne, but as Batman he was good!
But the point is that Batman is who he truly is. He’s hasn’t figured his “Bruce Wayne” persona yet.
We weren’t suppose to care for Pattinson’s Bruce Wayne. Since this is gonna be trilogy, I expect Matt Reeves to handle Bruce’s development like how he did the apes in the planet of the apes trilogy.

Yes Tony. Love from England. This was great, hoping you bring back the snowfall reactions too! If you’re still feeling the series ✊🏾
It wasn't official until I heard Tony the Bakers The Batman movie review......
This was by far the best Batman as far as story telling, character development, and Thomas and Martha Wayne actually contributing to the story. I love how Gotham was an actual character in the movie and Arkham is finally gonna be in this. It's like the Arkham games in movie form.
Emo Bruce is better than Playboy Bruce. Playboy Bruce is played out. Enough about the money.
I also love that Batman was finally portrayed as a detective which is his entire thing "world's greatest detective". I also loved that he was barely out of costume. Even Zoe bodied Catwoman. Colin Farrell as Penguin was MINDBLOWING. Jeffrey as Gordon is a better matchup than fries and ketchup.
I dont wanna hear about Christopher Nolan EVER again!
Robert Pattinson Cedric Diggory from the Harry Potter movies
“Elbowy” took me out! 🤣🤣🤣
First of all GOMAB. Secondly, I agree. This was a very interesting take on a very young Batman.
Some folks were like
Batman is a detective!?.. I never knew 💯
And to your point on Zoe.... Her Dad at 60 looks better than I ever have.... I want to be like that one day, I'm in the gym working lbs
Everything felt real and Rob definitely earned being Batman, great movie I love this movie
So the Riddler is a serial killer now?! I never KNEW!
Oh yea, finally talking about Batman! Let’s gooo!
Zodiac. I thought it was excellent. The Riddler was played in a way you've never seen. I didn't think Pattinson would pull it off but he did.
Brruhhh that Val Kilmer take was hilariously spot on 🤣
Mr. Barker take a look at "Batman Year One" animated film. They tried to use this take which I loved the animated film!!!!
Batman and robin was bad but I love Mr freeze 😂
Great review, however I definitely disagree about Val Kilmore as Batman. I actually think he was one of the best Bruce Waynes. George was the worst to me by far. Roberts Bruce Wayne I think will eventually come to his own. He definitely was not interested in the shenanigans in this movie. 🤣
Who should be the next Batman villain Colin Farrell as Pingwing. he was in this movie but less screen time but next more time screen . we should look forward for Two Face teaming with pingwing. Also introduce Bane or The new Deadstroke or Rash Agul. ??
Yeah, after Affleck surprised me, I kept my mouth shut when the news broke about Pattinson 😅
Where did you get the jacket from MAB?
I really never thought that much about it. Only thing I've ever said was batman's going sparkly now. You know just joking around like you know twilight you know just normal shit but I never said anything about him being bad I was like hey who knows he played a vampire and they're so close to bats who knows maybe this will give him the vibe he needed to get rid of the twilight years he's been trying to get rid of. And I loved this movie he was awesome and if he made another one I'd definitely see it.
Saw Tony Baker last night at the Louisville Comedy Club and now I see this on my feed…it feels like Christmas morning!! Love your content and your jokes - keep up the good work!
Definitely agree that Kilmer is the worst Batman... And Bale being "elbowy" lmao
Amen on Val Kilmer as Doc Holliday! My favorite character portrayal of all time!
Agree on his Batman performance too.
Agreed Tony! Outside the suit, he wasn’t appealing but the look of Gotham City and Gordon made it a pretty solid movie. Loved the detective story though! 💯👏🏾👏🏾
Yo Tony, I like the break down and though I haven't seen the movie just Zoe Kravitz as Catwoman is motivation enough. As for the elbow fighting style from the Nolan series, its a Spanish Martial Art called Keysi Fighting Method.

Val Kilmer at the house like 'Gyadamn mane, what did I do?'
It was boring he didn’t impress me at all he could have gotten in shape and why was Gordon whispering the whole movie
He looked more like the Crow than Batman. But I thank the cinematic deities they didn't visit Patterson on the crow.
This was one of those movies where the supporting characters outshone the main one. To date I haven't seen a film where Patterson fits his role/character seamlessly.
Except twilight, couldn't finish any one of those movies just ask me to stare unblinking at the sun instead.
When they enter Riddler's apartment it was very **SEVEN**ish. My man had hundreds of notebooks, various different hangings, & the floor BEING CARVED UP. When police in a movie see carpet they should call "We need CSU." Pull up that carpet and take a look
That Batman vs Superman rescue Martha rescue fight scene was pure Batman in his rage.... best fight scene ever
Thank you, Ton.....nobody wants to admit that he did not give Bruce Wayne at all...that was a disconnect for me
Tony. Man. I just saw this movie and I agree with most of what you are saying. I am hoping if they are going to do another that he grows into the Bruce Character. He gave me an angry adolescent guy vibe. I like how they mixed Ny and Chicago Astethic together to create a great Gotham City. Clark Street in Chicago's Downtown never looked darker. lol. I had no idea that the Penguin was Colin Farrell Wow! I love Jeffery Wright period. That cat could read the directions to put IKEA shelves together and i would be all in. Zoe Kravitz was great and yes i kept saying the same thing about Zoe. I Kept seeing her dad's face and her mom's face then Her face! Like Gotdamn... LOL. What you need girl!? Man. I am someone who loves a good villain. The Riddler was not goofy he was mad cerebral which i loved. Who was that Joker at the end? I am super curious. I liked the movie more than I didn't like it.
When I heard Heath Ledger was cast as Joker I was like "10 things I hate about you guy" NO WAY!!!!! Then I ate my words!!! lol.... that's what I was hoping with Robert.... but I was thoroughly disappointed.
Get out my room Alfred 🤣🤣
Tony baker be spot on with this shit B,putting Batman in the movie Seven!?😂 I love it bruh,please keep it going
It's awesome you get the mood Batman was trying to get. But what I get is like how Tony Stark wasn't Ironman yet till after Civil War. I think that's what they are going for is Batman is developing Bruce Wayne. But we'll have to wait till the Batman 2
Been waiting on this !!!!!!
Hey can you do your normal movie review for this Movie with spoilers Please it would be Amazingly extraordinary Perfect Tony Love ya
"All Day and a Night" is the name of that Netflix film that Jeffrey Wright played the father in. I thought it was a "okay" movie. Very slow burn and very different seeing him like that. It was just okay. But I degrees, we are not here for "that movie" breakdown lol
Where can I get the Sigma hoodie?
Soundtrack, camera work was great. 🔥
Yes,the BATMAN review.Mr Baker,you're my favorite movie reviewer bra-keep up the GREAT work. LOL.
Is always fun when I hear Tony Baker’s take on a movie and then based on his take already know how many saxophones he’s going to pass out.
Not hating but the only thing I don’t like about doing the movie reviews during the episode is we don’t get the spoiler part anymore and I love when Tone goes into detail about film. It’s like watching someone paint something
All in all it was a great movie BUT as soon as you thought it was coming to a end it kept going lol
Minor Spoilers but nothing plot related.
The wearhouse scene is by far one of the most badass batman fights on film (thabk you BvS), but the first time he goes to the iceberg lounge looking for penguin or when he's fighting riddlers snipers during the climax i found a lot of good moments that made me think of Arkham and that wearhouse scene. But that's also personal opinion.
I feel like Robert Pattinson would have been better as Night Wing. He was good as Batman, but I can see him better as Dick Grayson. The movie did mention Bludhaven. Although he was ok as Batman he was terrible as Bruce Wayne.
Completely agree, act three felt like another movie lol but hopefully we get another
😂😂😂 we need more reviews Tony
Thank you for saying that cause without that costume he looked like no bitches Bruce no playboy or billionaire swag and he looked like the Crow .
That was the point. He hasn't developed his Bruce Wayne charismatic, playboy persona as yet. He was totally focused on being Batman.
@@raebeingreal2170 I understand an it was good that they didn't have him go to the company meet Lucius Fox or any of that. Even still Bruce not supposed to look like he just got out of rehab other than that he was a good Batman.
Hey Tony, Pattinson has done alot of movies since Twilight. Check out Good Time, Lost City of Z, and Tenet.
I agree Zoe Kravitz was a way better Catwoman than Anne Hathaway.
Zoe, Jeffrey and Colin performances were fantastic!!! Robert and Paul did not like their takes on the characters.
I just don’t want anything to be better the heathe ledger and Christian bale movies. Imma watch it tho. Also I commented this before I watched this video… you the greatest dawg
Where them voice overs at? "We dem Bats you betta!"🤣🤣🤣
I would have gave it 2.5, 3 at most but I feel you
I agree 100%, I did not like his vibe out of the batsuit.
Tony in sigma gear is a rare sighting 🤘🏾
