Here's my review of Batman Begins you may have already read at superherouniverse.com

Batman Begins really delivers from start to finish. It's Batman for grownups, but don't be mistaken because kids will love it to. At least my twelve year old did. I've read another review that said a 8 year old had problems with the scary scenes, but I would venture to guess that most kids would be okay. My whole family loved it. The origin details may not be quite as enjoyable for non comic book fans, but over all it's a good movie no matter if you've never even looked at a Batman comic book.

Fantastic Four Defeat Critics of Doom

With more movie critics giving the Fantastic Four a hard time than super villains at a lawyer's convention, you would think it would flop, but the Fantastic Four have triumped over the reviews of Doom with over 56 million dollars it's first weekend to become the number one movie this week. It may not be shakespeare, but it's a lot of fun. The movie leaves you wishing for a sequel next week. The antics of the Thing vs the Human Torch are really what makes it worth while. It's like watching a couple of brothers go at it with super powers.

War of the Worlds

The War of the Worlds is a supreme effort by the Steven Spielburg and Tom Cruise. Does that make automatically the best movie of all time? No, it is well done and gives a unique perspective from Tom Cruise's character perspective. You don't know what the world leaders are doing. There are no military planning sessions, just what is going on around Cruise and his movie kids. It makes for a very suspenseful sci-fi drama. You'll be nail biting all the way through. The problem is there is nothing really new here.

Fantastic Four Movie Review

You may have read some negative reviews on the Fantastic Four from others, but let me attempt to clarify. If you want shakespeare, then no I guess it wouldn't make you happy. If your one of these guys that can recite the name of every person to ever sit aboard the Starship Enterprise, (super geeks) then you'll probably find something wrong with this movie. If your an average joe who would like to take your family to something not terribly offensive with action, humor, and super heroes, then this one is for you.

It's got a little romance for the ladies, and plenty of funny scenes for the kids and guys who like to laugh. The friendly fight scenes between the Thing and the Human Torch will keep you rolling on the floor. They act like a real family except with super powers. The two deliver flawless guy humor with slightly slapstick action in the grand tradition of the Three Stooges, but not really that unrealistic. Of course their are plenty of car crashes, and fighting for the action fans.
