Save the aisle seat
Matt and I went and saw Batman Begins last night. For a summer blockbuster it had a nice bit of heft to it. Christian Bale was the first person to ever make the whole "How can she NOT know it's Bruce Wayne?" thing believable. He's also extremely lickable. And talented! Very talented!(Lickable.)
Poor Katie. Now no one except Michelle Pfeiffer has ever had any kind of real role to play in these things. The women are just there because - nah, I don't know why they're there. And Katie is just... there. It didn't help matters that she's playing opposite Christian Bale who makes even the worst clunker sound believable. And when you fill even the smallest supporting roles with such kickassedness as Gary Oldman, Linus Roche, Morgan Freeman, Liam Neeson, and Cillian Murphy it's hard not to suck in comparison.
That said, yi.
Good flick though. Worth the money. (And at $10.50 a ticket, that's saying something.)

Alex wants to see it. How do you think a 4-year-old would react? (Keeping in mind I decided NOT to take him to Episode III because of the violence.)
WAY too scary for a 4 year old. The Scarecrow would probably give him nightmares for years.
That's what I figured. Ah well, he's more excited about The Fantastic Four, anyway.
