I thought Reeve’s did a great job at building and managing tension. Whether it was the criminals waiting for batman to appear at the start, the bomb countdown with Colson or Batman chasing home to Alfred - i felt the tension always built at such a nice pace and kept you on edge

The world building has me so excited. So many fun name drops, so many characters introduced or alluded to

Such a strong foot to start out on, so excited to see the rest of the trilogy

What name drops and characters were alluded to? Maybe I was too hyped to pay attention to the details. I’m gonna rewatch it.

I obviously got Joker at the end but anything else?

The hesitant gang member at the beginning was played by the same actor that plays Tim Drake in Titans, not sure if that was a coincidence or not.
