The Review of Tim Burton's Batman Film

Recently, I have seen a movie called Batman by Tim Burton. I love this movie because it was the first Batman movie in the series and Michael Keaton acts as Batman throughout the entire movie. There are great actors in this film with a lot of experience in the film industry, such as Jack Nicholson, who plays the Joker. The plot and theme of the story are dark and mysterious, as there are many scary scenes in the movie. This movie is a superhero movie that means a lot to me because every time I watch it reminds me of my childhood. When I was eight years old, I used to dress up as Batman for Halloween and my interest in superheroes has never disappeared over the years. I think superhero movies have good messages to tell and are much easier to relate to than people think. Batman is a great representation of how people should be caring and helpful to others. Watching superhero movies reminds me of all real-life superheroes, like cops and firefighters, who risk their lives every day for us.

The film was made in 1989. I think the film had excellent sound and graphics effects that resembled those of the television show. The angles and surroundings of the city seemed gloomy and dark, adding great aesthetics. The structure of the movie was excellent as there was a lot of background information and anecdotal stories told about the origins of how the Joker and Batman were created. The focus on how these people were created really intrigued me. The written script for the movie is exciting. Lots of action and dialogue in the movie, but I wished they had better lighting and clarity for some of the scenes in the movie for more clarity. However, I can't complain because this filter makes a good narrative that relates to superheroes and villains. My favorite part of this movie was when the Joker fell into the tub of acid that burned his face during the Batman-Joker fight.

At the beginning of the movie, the joker attempts to become the mayor of Gotham City and take control of the city with corruption and crime. The joker provides attacks and illegal business through Gotham until Batman tries to stop his madness. The joker has poisoned most of the city with his commercial products that flooded the city. Batman had to end his power before it was too late. The Gotham people at one point envisioned Batman as a villain and not a hero because people were confused and knew nothing about him. Soon to find out that was not the case. Fortunately, Batman is always faithful to his citizens and helped save the day as he always does. I enjoy how Batman is a human without ordinary superpowers. However, he has the passion and determination that everyone should try to achieve.

In conclusion, I have seen this movie many times and it keeps getting better and better. Tim Burton is one of my all-time favorite directors because I love his dark themes and life messages mentioned in his narratives, like in my example from the movie called "Big Fish". I liked this movie best of all the Tim Burtons movies. I try to incorporate the traits and personalities of superheroes into my everyday life as I hope to help people with whatever they end up doing in the future. The motivation I get from watching Batman movies is like any other.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
