That's how I'd rank Batman Begins in the Bat-Movie-Pantheon. For a full discussion you can check out the Begum thread, but here at ol' Mastodon City I'd like to make a vbery specific comment:

I like my Batman operatic. Graveside vows and the "world's greatest detective." I don't have a whole lot of interest in Batman necessarily being believable as a person, any more than Superman has to be believable as an alien, and so I don't give Nolan as much credit for that feat as most people seem to. More importantly, for a movie so obsessed with Batman being a legend (first 20 minutes: "fear fear fear, become a, fear fear, a legend, fear fear fear") they seem to systematically remove most of the points of his origin that make him legendary/larger than life. Parent's murder? Solved! Decision to fight crime? Not made for a very long time. Genius? Not really. Detective? Not at all. Realization that fear is his greatest weapon? Made by someone else. They take every opportunity to cut away the more mythic aspects of the character, which makes me really sad.
