The Batman Trailer Review: 7 Ups & 1 Down

By Michael Patterson / August 23, 2020

Down...

1. It's A Little Too Dark

The grim tone does seem to fit the film perfectly (more on that later), but it's hard to deny that the trailer is a little too dark on the visual front.

Darkness is definitely a stylistic choice that DC often tends to lean towards and it certainly benefits a character like Batman, but some of the clip's best moments are shrouded in so much darkness that it's rather hard to see what's happening.

It's not a major issue and it can be dealt with by turning up your screen's brightness, but that won't work in a movie theater when it's released now, will it?

Now, for the positives...
