The entire movie is very much running with "Rich kid with issues beats on poor people" and constantly has characters and the plot force him to evolve past that, or at least, try to in a way that doesn't feel forced.

    It's the closest any Batman film has gotten to pointing out Batmans whole MO does nothing to stop crime. He does also say the police commissioner deserved to get killed so it gets 5 stars from me.

      love pattinson's wayne, which takes batman seriously, and concludes (rightly) that he must be the product of a developmentally delayed weirdo.

        Nobody should ever take Batman seriously. He's a comic book hero who's themed after bats. He fights crime because that's the single least creative thing a comic book hero could do. TBH the 1960s series with POW and ZOINK was the best take on the character and remains so today.
