Movie Haiku:SPLIT DECISION: Rich wants to believe there''s some attempt to "capture the moment" in this muddled mess, but Jan (who loved both Burton/Keaton BATMANs) thinks that''s just Nolan''s transparent attempt to justify all the glorified mayhem so guys can enjoy their guilty pleasures in peace. Rich''s Bottom Line: Good eye candy; bad screenplay. Jan: Bored me to tears!
