I do agree that the first half was the stronger section of the film, but also I liked the climax where it's revealed that the Riddler has this secret internet army willing to do his bidding. It was really interesting to me when I first saw it.

If anything, I like the way the movie tackles Bruce's parents' death. Not how they die, but why they die, with the Riddler, Falcone, and Alfred all having their own version of why they died, but the origin stays the same. I like that they went about it that way. That's just me, idk.

That's fair, too. Like, I'm not a huge fan of the Fast & Furious movies, but I can understand why action movie fanatics enjoy them.

Yeah, I agree with this. I thought the pacing was just right compared to the film's runtime (which, tbf, was a little overkill). But I saw the movie twice in the theaters when it was out and I loved it both times. I've probably seen it fifty more times since then, lmao.

Did you have a stroke while writing this, lmao.
