Having recently seen the first trilogy among Nolan's works, I wonder what opinions you hold about the movies in general. Seeing that I'm quite late to the party, I expect some strong and mature takes in the comments, but you are still free to voice any opinion you may have.

I think I'm an outlier here but I didn't like the first film, and I decided not to watch the other two after that.

It is underappreciated just how much Nolan's shifty lighting and sound design does to ruin an otherwise good enough film. I have a problem with the story too, though. Batman begins is mainly background stuff. Batman does stuff like walk up to Falcone, only to have harsh words and then be forced to back off. I don't remember a lot of action happening full stop. I believe I had a problem with the pacing, and in terms of comic:realistic vibes, the vibes are more realistic - I prefer comic book movies to be more comic-cy. Stylistic, in other words. It just has a generic style. Things i like because of their stylistic cinematography are guardians of the galaxy, netflix daredevil, and James Gunn's Superman

    Fair enough. I didn't happen to like the Dune movies, so I didn't even bother finishing the first one.

    Agree with the sound design problem. I was lucky I was able to view the trilogy at home, else I would probably have my ears blown off like a cartoon character by the end.
