Everything GREAT About Batman Begins! 

"Who else wants a Cillian Murphy Scarecrow origin movie ? " Me but only if it's going to be directed by Christopher Nolan.

‘Everything Great About Batman Begins’ #1: Cillian Murphy’s perfect casting

"He's here" 'Who?" "The bat-man!" One of my favorite lines in the whole trilogy. Cillian delivers it so fuckin well

I"ll never forget being eight years old in the movie theater, thinking I was watching the wrong movie for the first 10 mins.

"I swear to God." "SWEAR TO ME!"

This actor playing Scarecrow... Man the best... Simply The Best!

"I never said thank you." "And you'll never have to." Chills.

You forgot to “win” Lucius’s mocking Bill Earle by saying “Didn’t you get the memo?”

Batman Begins-Fear Batman: The Dark Knight-Chaos Batman: The Dark Knight Rises-Pain

"Everything great about Batman: Begins" Just watch the entire damn movie

My favorite line in the movie is "I won't kill you, but I don't have to save you." It's just delivered so beautifully.

The only bad thing about this trilogy is the fact that it's just a trilogy.

CinimaWins: "At least we'll always have this movie". Bruce: "You should see my other one". I see what you did there ;)

Two things. Gary Oldman as Commissioner Gordon is inspired and I can no longer buy anyone else in that role. The final scene where he finds the Joker's card is actually chilling now that we know what would follow.

Cillian Murphy was the PERFECT choice for Scarecrow One of my favourite actors playing my favourite Batman villain win. *ding*

12:56 "At least we'll always have this movie." Bruce: "You should see my other one." 😏 Nicely done. Lol

Still the greatest Superhero origin movie.

I want him to do Dark Knight but that video would probably end up being about 45 minutes long cause it's so damn good.

The "I'm Batman" line deserved enough praise to break the win counter.

Can we appreciate how incredible Tom Wilkinson was as Falcone? I could've used so much more of him in the movies, an awesome character.

Best channel about being Positive and celebrating movies

wait, this is an actual great movie

Even though everyone loves the Dark Knight, this film is also just as epic in many ways. Once again the cast is phenomenal, the effects are amazing, and the themes really build into the remaining sequels. Best superhero trilogy, period.

I love this movie. Great job with this video but you forgot one major win. When Bruce defeats Ra's in the train he reiterates his line to him. "You never learned to mind your surroundings." Yes, it was another repeat of a line from earlier in the film, but the delivery of the line in that moment was simply excellent. His voice seemed to choke up a bit, deeply saddened that his mentor and a man who had become a father figure to him earlier in the movie was going to die in seconds. The fact that the decisions Ra's had made to potentially destroy Gotham could not enable Batman to save him. Christian Bale simply does not get enough credit for playing Bruce Wayne and Batman. When Affleck shows me some actual substance, I might entertain that he is at least on par with Bale in this role.

"Gary Oldman is always a win." Instant sub! Also, this movie is the best origin story ever. Bale does a spectacular job at playing one man who has many faces.

Scarecrow was excellent in this smovie

that "swear to me" will forever be the most badass 3-word line Im gonna ever hear

Cillian Murphy is one of my favorite actors, and Scarecrow is my favorite DC character.😁

Who else here thinks this is the best of the trilogy? Don't get me wrong I love the Dark Knight and even Rises, but this one feels like the perfect Batman film.

5:18 THANK YOU ! This is exactly why the "shaky blurry cam" was used. It is not meant to be an epic fight scene with slow mo and stupid effects with over dramatic punches and kicks, it's meant to show how Batman uses fear, confusion, and illusion to get a great advantage fighting groups of bad guys in a realistic way. This portrays perfectly how the baddies are experiencing him, almost like a shadow coming out of nowhere with a vague dark shape. Something more than just a man. Meanwhile, crapfleck runs around in his overdimensioned bdsm ironman suit with no regard to proper physics, while the bad guys all willingly wait their turn to get hammered.. How the f can people like that batman more than the Nolan version is beyond me..

4:37 also notice that in the entire movie, this is the first scene the score goes from a minor and dark tone into that heroic major tone which makes a lot of sense because it’s the first time he’s stepping up and facing his fear

8:50 how dare you not Win the “I do hope you’re not a member of the fire brigade”

That scene when he is in the cave and the bats fly by him and he finally embraces the fear, that scene was brilliant and told you so much without saying anything and it introduced the loud hanz zimmer batman theme horns at a perfect time

I really want a scarecrow movie because I think he's a really interesting character.

The actor for alfred in the trillogy was so good.

You missed out the biggest win of them all... "I never said thank you" "And you'll never have to"

Ben Afflecks solo film wont live up to this Trilogy. Nolan is too talented a director and given the state of the DCEU, I don't see it going too well.

This is why I love Cillian Murphy in this movie: 6:57

I'm so in love with this movie. There are so many mirrorings and layers to this film which become apparent after repeated viewings. Begins' structure is a beat for beat play of The Hero's Journey as explicated by Joseph Campbell. Bruce loses his father with the words, 'Don't be afraid'. Ra's becomes Bruce's new father figure, and passes with that same line. The major theme of fear ties together with the character's development, where a childhood fear is harnessed and mastered by the adult. So the theme of the movie itself is the driver of the character arc as well as the premise of the plot. That's a triple win. The transitions between past and present are written and edited so as to be perfectly seamless. I can't think of another movie where the flashback sequences are so naturally blended into the story.

"Swear to me" gives me chills every time

The way that Michael cane says “it’s of that’s left of him” gives me chills

"I won't kill you... but I don't have to save you." *ding*

8:55 literal burn

One of my all-time favourites. 2:46 One thing that is left delightfully ambiguous is if this remorse is genuine or not. Sure Falcone said that Chill bragged about it in prison, but I wouldn't trust his word alone. Thoughts?

"I swear to god-" "SWEAR TO ME!" Badass as FUCK!

Did I hear Krieger's "Smoke bomb?" I want more Krieger lines in these videos.

Bat Begins deals with Bruce overcoming fear and turning that fear against his enemies. Dark Knight finds an opponent entirely immune to his tricks and intimidation with no clear motive. Everything he learned in Begins is made irrelevant and he has to learn a new way to fight pure evil and the embodiment of chaos. DK Rises deals with Bruce having lost all fear of death and having to find it again to climb out of a literal and figurative hole to once again do the impossible and return to defeat his strongest opponent yet, with a little help from a nice lady who doesn't share his code against using guns on an opponent. All in all the trilogy is very well bookended.

Batman Begins is my favorite Batman film. I'd put The Batman and The Dark Knight tied for a very close 2nd, but Batman Begins means so very much to me. I already had Lenny's Fact 6 left thigh tat before this even came out so I'm a huge Nolan fan. To me, Batman Begins made me want to BECOME Batman. Thomas Wayne wasn't just some guy he was a great man. Bruce's first outing to meet Gordon is one of my favorite scenes in any Batman film ever and he's not even fully Batman yet. "Now we're two." Bravo The police escape is lifted directly from Year One and on a side not, the holding tank and police escape scene in the Batman is my favorite part of the film. Including the talk between Gordon and Batman (always in it together no matter what).

You know what’s interesting to notice? In this first version of the Bale Batman voice, he sounds like he’s trying to be more whispery and raspy, as opposed to the later versions of the Bale Batman voice which seems like an attempt to sound more gruff with extra rasp. Like there’s two different forms of intimidation that these two versions are going for, and I kinda like the first one more, it sounds more reserved, like he’s talking that way because he’s close to you, and you don’t need to know who they are, like an actual attempt at hiding their voice. Meanwhile the more that he goes on, he has to start grunt yelling like he’s trying out for a death metal band as a means to be intimidating sounding from all measures of distance

This was my favourite childhood movie, I always got scared by the scene with the bats in the well.

Everything is a win Win Counter: Infinity

7:08 direct line ftom the comics I watched this first then recognized the line in Batman Haunted Knight

Cillian Murphy is so good in this

I want a Scarecrow origin movie starring Cillian Murphy!

9:58 You could also have it connect to what Joker said in The Dark Knight about how in people's last moments, you see them for who they truly are. In this case, Ra's is a man who accepts his fate and is ready to face death like a man

Appreciate the reupload! Please can you do an EGA Coraline. I think that film is so unique and stunning and deserves more praise! xx

No tease for next week?

I remember watching this movie and being amazed at how realistic a superhero movie could be.

Joker card in the evidence bag has the labelling, "recovered by: J Kerr" . Subtle Win. (at 10:24)

Such a great, elegant, and nostalgic movie. I used to watch this on my PS2 back in 8th and 9th grade. ❤️

One of my favorite movies.(Yes, I love it more then The Dark Knight.)

I like how, to fit into the realistic tone, Ra's Al Ghul is hinted at being a name past on through the generations. That way he's still technically immortal.

@6:09 I think Gordon is being respectful of Batman's wishes to stay anonymous by looking away

I want to be honest this is my favorite of the trilogy, not hating The dark night by any means or even the dark knight rises they are still phenomenal, but truth be told there's something I've noticed with every single Batman movie or cartoon even that they eventually always do, there's just so much emphasis on the joker and while he's a great character for sure I think the reliance on using him in everything is becoming a bit stale, this one we have Ras Al ghul and scarecrow, less popular sure, but also just as important as to why this film works. Even the new Batman movie with Robert Pattinson has him in a deleted scene, and I don't mind that at all because of course it wasn't in the movie so it didn't take away from The Riddler plot, still I hope he doesn't become a crutch.

Top 5 Origin Films: 1) Split 2) Spider-Man 3) The Incredibles 4) Batman Begins 5) Marvel's The Avengers honorable mentions: Deadpool, Iron Man, Captain America: The First Avenger, Guardians of The Galaxy, Kick-Ass, & Chronicle

My favorite comic book trilogy of all time. One thing I love about this trilogy is that it wasn't just dark for the sake of being dark. The tone fit with the themes of the films. It fit with the characters, and the stories Nolan wanted to tell. But it had plenty of humor, that worked, and more importantly, it had hope. That's what this Batman fought for. The hope for a better future. These weren't just great comic book films, they were also great films. Great films with well developed, multi-layered characters, fantastic dialogue, great performances from both main and supporting actors and amazing soundtracks. However, it's not flawless. While I don't think the hand to hand combat was TERRIBLE, it certainly could've been much better. And Rises is definitely the weakest film in the trilogy IMO. But what I love most is how Nolan took all these characters, put his own spin on them, and yet somehow, still stayed true to the core of the characters. That's why this trilogy was so special. It did its own thing and still remained faithful where it mattered. I wish DC could go back to being this great, in terms of their movies

Possibly the best part of Batman Begins was his 'wingspan' exit from the train (here at 9:58). God, I love that. I could watch it a million times in a row.

I always love you all's summarizations of movie analyses. It really puts into words some of the things I have trouble articulating about what makes the film beautiful.

I dare you, I double dare you Mr CinemaWins, do Pulp Fiction!

Learned about this channel from CinemaSins but I'm really starting to dig these videos more. Moar Wins please.

YEEEEEESSSSS DO THE ENTIRE TRILOGY!!! I'VE BEEN WANTING YOU TO DO THIS MOVIE FOR SO LONG!

I think that you should make some videos which describe the good points of a series as a whole. You could discuss things like character arcs and recurring key themes. BTW Love your videos!

#do Dark knight guardians of the Galaxy Rogue one

It was the only movie that I've been to were the audience all spontaneously got up and applauded at the end. WOW

Hey cinemawins, I adore your channel, it makes my day when I'm alerted about a new video! At some point in the future, could you please review Looper? It's my all-time favourite film with time travel. Keep up the fantastic work! :)

9:01.. Love the SOA reference!

The "You should see the other one" at the end 👏👌

Do Everything great about The Room.

Epic video, loved your analysis at the end

I also like the matching of Ra’s telling him it’s not a dance and head butting him to when he pulls Falcone of the car and knocks him out with the same move…theatricality and deception can be powerful but brute force and seeming super human when he wasn’t also play into the fear around the bat

When he said "where are you" I started to sing blink 182 lol

2:30 Krieger LOL #lovearcher

You missed one. The tram sequence with the Waynes on the way to the opera is visually based on Fritz Langs "Metropolis" from 1927, complete with with a gigantic Tower of power at the center (Wayne Tower), and misery hidden below. Seriously, compare 1:25 with the opening sequence of Metropolis, and you get the same picture, and you can possibly connect the themes of understanding the source of the problem.

A description at its best. You, sir, are amazing

I. Love. Batman. And Christopher Nolan has made the BEST Batman movies. I even like them more than the Tim Burton and DCEU Batman movies. Which says a lot since I love those movies, too.

I could go on for ten years about everything great about this film.

02:24 theatricality and deception...powerful agents to the uninitiated, but we are initiated aren't we, Bruce? Members of the league of shadowssss

@9:03 Excellent SOA reference! (Ding!)

7:20 "curse you tank man!!!!"

Man, can't wait until we get to likes for the Dark Knight.

Watched this initially ages ago. Then recently a friend convinced me to watch Sons of Anarchy which I've now since finished. Just got the August Mark's crew bit. I love you and your references Mr Cinema Win

One personal opinion I include as a win is that, in the "now we're two" scene with Gordon, you see that Bruce is actually threatening him with a stapler, letting him think it's a gun. Just a fun detail I always liked.

Am I the only one who likes this movie more than Dark Knight?

I hope you get to do the Assassin's Creed movie soon :D

Just want to add something cinema wins missed. There should definitely be and extra point added on for the scene introducing Cillian Murphy as Dr. Crane showing off the scarecrow mask to Falcone in Arkham. It’s a great scene and Cillian Murphy delivers Scarecrows lines perfectly along sides Falcones perfect performance.

3:16 Also the guy in Snatch, Boris The Blade

Just my two cents, since I love this channel's positivity: Batman is such a difficult character to portray, his iconography is so much more well known than his personality, as opposed to Superman who's optimistic personality is a permanent piece of his character and shows up in different interpretations no matter how varied. Particularly, it seems, playing the duality of Batman is difficult. My gripe with a lot of actors in the role has been that they don't fit both the Playboy and the Batman. Christian Bale, to me (Batman voice aside) was a great Batman, but he didn't sell me on Bruce Wayne. And this is a consistent issue, George Clooney's famously awful Batman was poorly balanced by his more natural Playboy persona. This movie did it right, in that, they focused more on the Bat, because that's who we really care about. If we can't have both, we at least need the Bat. And what really excited me about Batfleck in BvS is that he seems to be playing both roles so much more seamlessly than I've ever seen. For all the flaws of that movie, I will forever love the first intro to Batfleck, he really sold me on the Dark Knight AND Bruce Wayne.

Still prefer Katie Holmes as Rachel, shes cuter. lol Plus actor changes makes me have to remind myself who they are until a few movies in. Like when Dumbledor's actor changed after the original died, took a little while to get used to the new actor because his portrayal was a bit different. With Rachel both actors only got one film with about equal screen time so they might as well have been separate characters. :P Would've been a lot sadder for me if it was still Katie as Rachel in Dark Knight.

It's amazing how researching this film how emotional Bruce and Gordon's first meeting made me, how in the last film, Gordon reassuring Bruce has endured until the moment they part ways and how it meant the most to him at that time.

"...at least we'll always have this movie." "You should see my other one". I don't remember seeing this movie in theaters for some reason, but first caught a glimpse of it on FX around 2008 an instantly fell in love with it. I went out and bought the DVD the next day and watched it every night for about a week.
