The Batmanhad a lot to offer the audience, from Robert Pattinson’s acting to Matt Reeves’ directing. The movie became an instant hit among the fans and they have since then been waiting for a sequel to blow their minds further. Another aspect that hooked them immediately was the soundtrack by Michael Giacchino. The score had been on many people’s playlists for a very long time.
The movie showed a side of Batman that had been limited to the comic books for a while now, exploring his title of ‘the best detective’. Not only did it show the hero on a journey from the dark to the light and from being feared by the citizens of Gotham to being the hope of Gotham.

The score undoubtedly sets the mood of a detective in a gritty reality and fits perfectly with the film. Michael Giacchino’s work has been legendary consistently and for it to be not acknowledged is the true crime.
The Batmanis now streaming on HBO Max.
