About
As of 2026, it's 21 years old.
Batman Begins rescued the Caped Crusader from the campy, nipple-suit wilderness of the late '90s and rebuilt him from the ground up as a grounded, psychologically serious figure — kicking off Christopher Nolan's acclaimed trilogy and the entire 'gritty reboot' era of Hollywood.
It treated a man dressing as a bat with real gravity, explaining the fear, the training, and the cape with a straight face that somehow worked completely.
Serious, stylish, and genre-shifting, Batman Begins is the film that proved the superhero movie could grow up — and made every studio want a 'darker' version of everything.
