6. Batman Begins

Rating: 85%

It took a brave soul to take on Batman after the mess of Batman Forever and Batman & Robin, but Christopher Nolan did a spectacular job of reinventing the caped crusader.

Batman Begins was a dark and gritty superhero movie, spawning swathes of attempts to emulate this success, but none have managed to beat this so far. Batman's origin is pretty well known, but this movie made it interesting with a new direction that also profited from a fantastic villain turn from Liam Neeson.
