The Look

Finally, a live action movie has absolutely nailed the iconic Batman look. He looks like he’s been ripped straight from the pages of Frank Miller’s The Dark Knight Rises.

Ben Affleck has beefed up accordingly, giving us an appropriately muscular Batman for pretty much the first time – and the costume design folks have done a perfect job as well. We now have a comic book-looking cowl with full movement – which is awesome! No more “I can only look forward” or Patrick Bateman “give me a helmet” nonsense.

Not all of the previous live action movie Batmen have looked bad, but this is undoubtedly the first one to look practically perfect. Looks aren’t everything, but they’re definitely a damn good start.
