BATMAN BEGINS explores the origins of Batman and the Dark Knights emergence as a force for good in Gotham City. In the wake of his parents murder, disillusioned industrialist heir Bruce Wayne travels the world seeking the means to fight injustice and turn fear against those who prey on the fearful. He returns to Gotham and unveils his alter-ego, Batman, a masked crusader who uses his strength, intellect and an array of high-tech deceptions to fight the sinister forces that threaten his city. • Official Movie Date: June 17, 2005
