[Dude McDude]

I liked most of it.

I think it was interesting to see how they used classic historical images, like the peoples court french revolution style, people lining up for empty food stores (i remember seeing those images in the 80's news broadcasts from soviet union), also the army of unarmed policemen was classic riot imagery, save that all in all two cops got killed.

The play on communism came off to me as some new form of mccarthyism. There seemed to be a subtext of communism fear, which sort of surprised me. I thought that was old rhetorics, and yet you see it in images all over the movie or in quotes like "it's everybodys house now".

Still a good dudeflick though.

I think the ending was pretty straight forward with Bruce Wayne faking batmans death and formed a family, (was that with catwoman by the way?) Robin will most likely take over the role as either new batman or well... robin. Sequels are now secured.

Was it just me who cringed in the seat from Alfreds overcommitment in Bruce Waynes err... family plans?
