There has been much hype
surrounding the new Batman movie, and the recent terrible shootings accompanying
the screening of the film in the US make a chilling backdrop to its launch over
here, in the UK.
Long gone are the days of Caped Crusaders
donning tights to recue fair damsels in distress. The Batman of 2012 is a much
different character, still with those traits that mark him out as a hero, but infinitely
removed from the Batman of yesteryear. Perhaps he is a better depiction of the
internal struggle between good and evil that exists in all of us…
Perhaps he merely serves to shed
light on those parts of the human psyche best left in darkness.
Perhaps!
I have the good fortune to be in
contact with a number of young people from different nations and I asked them
what they thought of the film:
Following a bit of an Olympic Medals table theme.
More reviews to come soon!
