BvS Best cinematic portrayal of Batman?

[SirThomasSharpe]

With Ben Affleck's superb take on the caped crusader finally here, think back to the past 5 actors to portray this great character. Which one gave the best portrayal?

While they all brought something different and the tone, story and direction were different, for me it's Ben Affleck. Second one would be Christian Bale.

I liked Ben's Batman but I preferred Bale's Bruce Wayne. Part of that may be the writing however its hard to call. As a self confessed Nolanite I have to give props to Ben for doing pretty darn well, considering the stick some people gave him from just landing the job. Bale just edges it for me though.

Batman has been, needless to say, quite lucky. To me it's Keaton (his mere presence, the eyes alone are all Batman) then Affleck and Bale. And on what he did, West deserves all the respect.

For me, it Affleck.
There have been some good Bruce Waynes (Keaton/Bale) but not once have I seen the action that Batman pulls off in this movie.
He is brilliant as Batman AND Bruce Wayne.

Best portrayal? Definitely Affleck. I was waiting for a Batman like this for a loooooong time.

Torn between Keaton and Bale. Affleck mostly seemed like a guy showing up for work to me.

Too soon for this, fanboys on here will be riding the Affleck hype train for now.

Similar to Garfield and Maguire on here.

I think in the long-term Bale (and Nolan) will be remembered as the better portrayal as the character.

But for now, fans have 'Phantom Menace' blinders on for this film.

Batfleck. He owned it. Not taking away from anyone except maybe Clooney who seemed like he phoned it in. Bale came really close in Begins, but Batfleck is the real deal.

Affleck
Batman 9 Bruce Wayne 9
Bale
Batman 7 Bruce Wayne 8
Keaton
Batman 8 Bruce Wayne 6 max
