Speaking of the "Batman" series, everyone should be no stranger, whether it is an animation or a movie, there are dozens of batmen before and after, and the batman I want to talk about today is the first part of the series of movies "Batman The Dark Knight" directed by Christopher Nolan and starring Christian Bell, "Batman: The Mystery of the Shadow". The film was released on June 15, 2005, and grossed $352 million worldwide.
The biggest difference between the film and other Hollywood Batman films is that it pays more attention to the depiction of Batman's (Bruce Wayne) inner growth. From this, we can find another different Batman, and even from his growth experience, we can see our own shadow, which should be its greatest value.
As a child, Bruce Wayne's city of Gotham was in a slump and full of evil, while his father and mother were high society in Gotham City. My father was a doctor and a businessman, but he was not proficient in business, so he left the business to someone else to manage and immersed himself in becoming a doctor. And he also contributes his own strength to Gotham City, hoping that Gotham City can get better and better, it can be said that he is very dedicated.
So when he was a child, Bruce Wayne can be said to have no worries about food and clothing, and lived a happy and happy life. One day, while playing with Rachel, he accidentally fell into a hole, and a large number of bats suddenly appeared in the hole, which startled him and kept haunting his mind. At this time, it was his father who comforted him, "Every animal has a sense of fear, and so do bats, and it is you who frighten them, so they are like this, so don't be afraid." ”
But the weather was unpredictable, and after watching a movie with his parents one night, Bruce Wayne witnessed his parents being shot and killed by gangsters on the streets of Gotham City, which made him sad. After his father fell to the ground, he did not forget to tell him, "It's all right, Bruce, don't be afraid."
This unfortunate tragedy also completely changed his life, he hoped to inherit his parents' charity and make his own contribution to Gotham City, but also hoped to rely on his own strength to bring the criminals to justice.
He was struggling, contradictory, and powerless.
The Dark Knight Batman
However, as he grew up from his childhood, he found that the evil forces in Gotham City were getting worse and he was disillusioned with social justice. So he decided to leave Gotham City and go around the world looking for ways to fight crime.
He wandered all over the world, and even in order to be able to understand the psychology of criminals firsthand, he also committed crimes himself, and was arrested and imprisoned. This is a good way to master the psychology of criminals. Finally, Kung Fu pays off, and he meets a mysterious figure named Duka in prison, who becomes his master and trains him rigorously, teaching him a kung fu and giving him the extraordinary ability to fight criminals.
At this point, it can be said that his practice was successful, and he was already eager to return to Gotham City to show his skills. It's just that this Duka is not a simple character, and there are amazing secrets behind it.
Jim Gordon, Gotham City Police Department Police Officer
When Bruce returned to Gotham City, the results were very different from what he had imagined.
The once thriving city has been controlled by criminals and corrupt bureaucrats, while the dedicated family business Wayne Group has been taken over by the current CEO Earle, a large and mercenary conglomerate.
Her friend Rachel became an assistant prosecutor in Gotham City, and she was unable to prosecute the criminals because gang boss Carman Fecconi had bribed Officials from Gotham City. And the city's psychiatrist, Klein, is also a sinister man, ostensibly a physician, but behind the scenes a supervillain scarecrow.
Alfred Pennyworth, the old butler of the Wayne family
All kinds of complex and grim situations called out to Bruce Wayne, and he was not alone in the battle.
With the help of old butler Alfred, Wayne Corporate ally Lucius Fox, and officer Jim Gordon, he succeeds in becoming Batman.
This is a masked messenger of justice, extraordinary skill, superb wisdom, and various high-tech products, which makes criminals feel frightened! He was bound to fight against all the evil forces of Gotham City, so he won the praise of the citizens, but also became a thorn in the side of the criminals.
At this time, his former master appeared again, but this time, he was here to destroy Gotham City. It turned out that he was the leader of the League of Assassins, dissatisfied with the current situation in Gotham City, and wanted to revitalize Gotham City by destroying it, that is, eliminating all criminals and good people.
This is clearly contrary to the justice that Batman pursues, so a confrontation between apprentice and master is inevitable!
Henri Duca / Lars Al Gul, Bruce's mentor and leader of the League of Assassins
In the end, after personally ending his master and other evil forces, he chose to continue to be Batman. Perhaps Batman is the best character for him to fight criminals, with superhuman abilities without worrying about his loved ones being implicated.
After experiencing the confusion from childhood fear, misfortune, to adulthood, he finally found a path of his own, which can be said to be reborn.

In stark contrast is the supervillain Joker in the second movie. Batman and the Joker, one successfully survived, in pursuit of justice, one let himself go astray.

Bruce's father played a crucial role in Bruce's upbringing. He led by example and taught him kindness, bravery, and strength. Although he died unfortunately, the quality of his father has always deeply affected him, otherwise there would be no Batman born!
Thomas Wayne, Bruce Wayne's father, taught him bravery
The song "The Dark Knight" cooperated by Lin Junjie and Mayday Ashin (Chen Xinhong), although it is not clear whether it is related to the "Batman" series, the kind of scene described from the lyrics is almost a true portrayal of Batman:
At the foot is a humble street
I stood alone on the city skyline
Don't ask me about evil or good
I'm just hungry to fly mammals
......
When we all take to the streets when we embrace faith
When we play heroes in person in the movie plot
You are a belief, you are a vow
The world is waiting for you to appear yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
