I did not like this film as there is no comical relationship as we saw in the television shows.

Tom Wilkinson gives a wonderful performance as a mobster. His Brooklyn accent is memorable.

The beginning of the film was rather boring as we get into the story. Nonetheless, the tragic death of our hero's parents was vividly told.

As the film progresses, there are some nicely done action sequences but the story is rather uneven. Bring back the old television show. Christian Bale does an adequate job as our crime crusader. While he did have this terrible tragedy in his life, the human element in his performance is missing.
