Batman Begins review

Let me start this by saying Batman is a character that I hold close to my heart, as he is a character that I shared love for since childhood with my best friend Brandon Grismore, for those who do not know Brandon was my best friend when I was little who died.
I was offered many times yesterday the chance to go see Batman Begins at the midnight showing, and while I really did want to see the movie, I also had made prior plans to view this film with my father, who has taken me to see every other Batman film.
Batman Begins held up to any standards I had in my mind about it, it was as amazing as I had read, it was very dark, very well written, and minus Katie Holmes whole talking out of the side of her mouth thing, very well acted.
I give Batman Begins a 8 out of 10.
I think the moment that made me truly think this is the best Batman movie had to be when Morgan Freeman showed up, as some of you know I am trying to nail a Morgan Freeman impersonation, and this movie will do wonders as I can already see myself viewing this film again and again.
I also have good news that I have figured out a beginning and maybe even an entire story for the book I am working on. I could tell you it is Final Horizons, but I think the name of the project might change and Final Horizons may just become the first arc in the series.
In other news I have been out applying for jobs, in the hopes of leaving Holiday Inn for something much more fufilling, i will keep you posted on the progress.
I am going to go and write and then watch some Freaks and Geeks, a show that is truely amazing.
I miss Brandon, the only person who I will ever play Robin for or with.
Batman Begins- wow.
