The first thing you need to do is block all the previous movies and actors from your memory. What this movie does best is stand on its own without the need to wink back at any other version. This is a dark, gritty crime drama where the lead detective fights his own demons as much as he fights psychopathic criminals. This Bruce Wayne is not a billionaire playboy. He’s an emotionally scarred billionaire who hasn’t had a moment of joy or relief in two lonely decades of self imposed exile. THE BATMAN is dark – very, very dark. And I like it that way. https://www.gaytravelersmagazine.com/the-batman-movie-review-by-steven-skelley.html Pride Journey Indianapolis By Joey Amato

I am a gay man. I came out at the tender age of 40. There are many differences, I'm sure, for those who have made peace with their homosexuality at a younger age and notable similarities with men who have done so when I did and later. Yet, everyone's story is unique. Although many gay men will nod with recognition at some of the details, we all have our own individual accounts to tell. This is mine. <MORE> Amazing New Cruises and Great Deals from Atlantis
