is it true that he doesnt become batman till about an hour into the film

Yeah, but the film makes it worth the wait.

Dam Ironman, it freakin rocked. Except for bruce telling uknowho that he was batman, the rest was just awesome. The fight scenes sucked with the camera zooming in and everything being unclear, but the way in which the directors approached the movie...NICE. I saw it on IMAX, with a terrific sound system.
Bad guy hanging upside down: I swear to god, I dont know.
Batman(screaming): SWEAR TO ME...

And batmans face thru the drug eyes ..

The strength of this movie is not the special effects, but the way in which it was approached. Like a serious action flick. LOVED IT. Esp on IMAX with a bigass screen. Man, when I saw batman standing on a tall building, I almost had an orgasm

uhhhh......you must have really liked it arbit! lol

But I have to agree completely with you. His face in the drug scene was really cool. A very well done movie.

That should make for a good character, and it is in keeping with the overall tone and feel of the movie. Should be sweet!

That's one scary a$$ looking joker! Yikes!! I love how they captured the dark side of Batman, which of course is how the character/feel is supposed to be.

Uuuum, actually its fanart, not something by the movie producers.
Somebody shood send that to the producers, make them realise thats the creepy joker we want

Christian Bale, Michael Caine and Morgan Freeman have signed to star in a second Batman movie, but love interest Katie Holmes has been dropped. Movie bosses are thrilled with the response to Batman Begins - it took $46.9 million in its first weekend at the US box office - and have snapped up the film's stars for a sequel. Bale as Batman was the first to put pen to paper, followed by Caine as butler Alfred and Freeman as Bruce Wayne's business associate Lucius Fox. But Holmes won't reprise her role as district attorney Rachel Dawes - reportedly because Warner Bros is angry her engagement to Tom Cruise has stolen media attention away from the movie. A source tells Pagesix.Com, "Everyone is in agreement that the movie's strength is with Christian Bale, Michael Caine and Morgan Freeman." Adding of Holmes, "She won't be in the sequel... the next romantic interest will be a much stronger actress. Warner is happy that people are now focusing on who'll be playing the Joker rather than Katie and Tom."

I thought the movie was quite entertaining. The Batman franchise was starting to get pretty cheese. This movie rescued it IMO. I'm looking forward to the next one even Katie Holmes won't be in it

Mmmmm... Katie Holmes...

I saw it and thought it was easily the best comic book based remake movie ever. I loved the new dark serious feel that the movie carries. The movie was simply spectacular.

As Egert said, its a REALLY good film (not just comic book film). Batman doesnt even appear until after about 70 minutes.
I saw it again, it was even better than the first viewing, Bale got the character right - u can feel the craziness in his eyes

:
It being shown on IMAX's bigass screen - go check it out folks

I'm going to see it a third time next week

Man that film ROCKS!!!!!!!!!
