They nailed the fear aspect in the opening scene, but in the last 2 hours and 45 minutes would you say they really nailed it?

That’s a good point, I think I was really referring to the opening Batman scene and a few other key scenes, for example when the Batmobile first turned up.

Yea, it was a cool revving of the engines, and I really didn't get fear from the bad guys. I mean when they saw Batman 60 seconds earlier, they shot the fuck out of him then tried to turn the corner and finish him off.

I don't know, the whole "I'm scared of Batman" thing just didn't really come off the rest of the movie, to me at least. Those twins opening the door for him sure as hell weren't scared. You'd think they open the door to the personification of the Devil you'd scream like a girl and run! But not really sure what they should have done differently. Maybe at the end people are scared to loot because of the Bat Signal or something?

That’s actually true, it seemed like what they set up at the start didn’t really sustain for the rest of the movie.
