The Blu-ray of 'The Batman' offers a commendable 1080p presentation but faces inherent limitations against its 4K counterpart. While it provides decent detail and color fidelity, the lack of HDR and Dolby Vision results in challenges with deep blacks and nuanced shadows, leading to noticeable black crush and softness in darker scenes.

Audio: 94

The Batman's Dolby Atmos track delivers an exemplary theater-grade audio experience with rich bass, precise dialogue, and immersive soundscapes, utilizing the overhead channels effectively in rain-drenched scenes and action sequences like the Batmobile chase, making it one of 2022's most impressive sound designs.

Extra: 73

The Batman Blu-ray extras offer a comprehensive and immersive behind-the-scenes experience, featuring detailed breakdowns of action sequences, character insights from actors like Robert Pattinson and Zoë Kravitz, and an extensive look at production, all enhanced by Matt Reeves’ directorial commentary.

Movie: 73

The Batman emerges from challenges to deliver a captivating dark urban detective tale, marked by its atmospheric Gotham setting akin to Se7en and Blade Runner. While Robert Pattinson's portrayal sparks debate, Matt Reeves' focus on tone and visual storytelling offers an intoxicating departure from conventional superhero narratives, though could benefit from a tighter, less bloated edit.
