| | The best Batman yet! | battlin 01/20/2007 | | A thrill that lasts throughout the whole film. Lots of suspense and action for a "comic book" character. Christian Bale provides the hero with a persona that is missing from the other Batman movies. |

| | This was great | Kenny 10/01/2009 | | I loved this movie. I am a country boy that knows how it is to be in a big city. I am from the area that he was suppose to be from and that is how we are here. We can pick on each other but if some one else does we come together and we take care of them. As a matter of fact yes almost all of us good old boys carry guns. Most know how to shoot bows and a few do know how to throw knives and axes. We was raised that we take care of each other and take care of our own problems. We don't care about the police because most of them don't know there but from a hole in the ground. I think he played a great country boy and the movie had all in it that it needed. |
| | You forgot one movie | 09/18/2009 | | Next of Kin is also one my favorites. It really does show how close country families really are. By the way there is one movie some one forgot to post. Return of the Rebels with Patrick, Barbara Eden, Jamie Farr and other great stars. Patrick and his gang go up against an older generation of bikers. Guess who wins. |
