Last weekend, I saw “The Batman.” There were many things I liked and a few things that I didn’t, but overall, I thought it was a very solid film. It was refreshing and unlike many superhero movies I have seen recently. It was a beautifully shot, thrilling, story-focused film that did justice to its source material.
