Morgan Freeman and Gary Oldman on Batman Begins and Career Highlights

Cuarón filigrees his film with brilliantly outsized projections of Harry's fears and underlying realities.

The ne plus ultra of comic-book films...an appropriately tough movie, busy but efficient, rich and thoughtful, and ornamented with visual appeal and exciting action.

The latest workmanlike entry in what must be regarded as an unprecedented film series has plenty of flaws, but also the franchise's reliable draws.

Ledger slips into the purple suit as if it were an animal skin for a primal, archetypal dance...Nolan's richly realized adaptation of a modern American mythology fulfills our faith in the material and its interpreters.

The best that can be said for Goyer's latest is that it's competent. How competent is a matter of debate, as is the degree to which Goyer is self-aware about the film's camp value.

A hall of fame guy's movie...[with] a macho '90s ensemble eclipsed only by Glengarry Glen Ross...the monologues—oh, the monologues!

[An] unabashedly jingoistic action extravaganza starring Harrison Ford as...'The Ass-Kicking President'...

Call me a Scrooge, but I'll pass on this synthetic version of that most humanistic of tales.

Thematically, like any good myth, the Harry Potter story comes full circle, with a heroic homecoming and the promise of more adventures, if only in our imaginations.

Whether coolly dispatching a fly or eating a Wimpy burger with knife and fork, Oldman carefully makes every gesture part of his quiet revelation of character.

Oldman's mid-film music-video performance of 'My Way' before a neon staircase compares favorably—as a revelation of character through performance—to Robert De Niro's framing monologues in Raging Bull.

The Nolans consider the issues of the day...explore the role of legendary heroes (from Robin Hood to Batman and Robin) in galvanizing the public, and labor mightily to ensure that how their Batman ends dovetails with 2005’s Batman Begins.

Tough-minded...In recounting 'the Great Franklin County Moonshine Conspiracy,' Lawless does not lack for local color and local legend.

[Has] a soupçon of military-industrial complexity...Judged on its own merits, this RoboCop pump-fakes in some interesting directions without getting to fully explore any of them.

Despite the multiple genres, The Space Between Us feels thin in its plot, and corny in the telling...
