Affleck wears the cape and cowl with an intimidating physical presence
Affleck wears the cape and cowl with an intimidating physical presence unmatched by any previous Batman. This is the caped crusader as tricked-out UFC fighter rather than the more graceful, KFM-influenced street-fighting dark knight essayed by Christian Bale. And his double act with Jeremy Irons’ equally jaded Alfred Pennyworth is highly enjoyable, with the butler moving into a remote-sidekick role that makes you wonder how Batfleck’s predecessors ever got by without such impressive tech-powered guidance.
And yet Affleck’s Bruce Wayne is an arrogant bully whose disturbing sexual comments towards Gal Gadot’s Wonder Woman mark him out as a man with a problematic moral compass. And did you swallow the bit where his realisation of a human connection with Superman (their mothers both share the Christian name Martha) saw Batman instantly switch from readying himself to kill Kal-El to heading off to save his opponent’s mum from certain death? And can we forgive him for nearly offing the greatest superhero in comics in time for a double whammy of Snyder-directed Justice League movies in 2017 and 2018?
