The Batman has been co-written and directed by Matt Reeves. It features the Caped Crusader who has been prowling the streets of Gotham City for two years, but is struggling with unresolved trauma. He and his ally, Gotham City Police Department Lieutenant Jim Gordon (Jeffrey Wright), are hot on the trail of a serial killer who calls himself the Riddler (Paul Dano).

The Batman, co-starring Zoe Kravitz as Selina Kyle aka Catwoman, is also the first movie in over a year that WB has released exclusively in theatres.
Indianexpress.com’s Shalini Langer gave the superhero film a two-and-a-half star rating. She wrote in her review, “The Batman makes a big deal of a lot about its hero. Everything about him moves in slower motion (that is, for not wanting to call him slow) – which by the way could partly explain the bloated three-hour length of the film. And this Batman really likes talking about himself. “They think I am hiding in the shadows, I am the shadows”, he says early on, just before landing some punches on a few lumpens. “I am Vengeance”, he introduces himself to another such group; “This city is beyond saving, but I have to try,” he says to no one in particular.”
