Batman solved the riddles too easily.

He usually got it within a few seconds. I understand Batman has always been a detective, but there's no way he could answer pretty much all of them so soon after hearing it.

He couldn't answer most questions immediately: the URL thing, Falcone, the carpet

... and he is still struggling about finding the murder of his parents and what to do with a good looking pussy who spread her legs for him.

Yeah, he couldn't answer the questions. But the riddles he solved too many of them too quick. The URL thing was the only one I remember him having trouble with.

I solved at least one of the riddles before he did, and I'm not a cowl-wearing detective.

[–] samoanjoes (57032) 3 years ago

That's only one though.

I also predicted that the DA's head would explode, which the Batman apparently did not, so he did struggle with a few things at least.

I don't know what took Batman so long to get out of the way.

[–] actionkamen (23176) 3 years ago

He was persplexed by the fact that the DA would rather die than to give out the names.

I think at that time The Batman was still believing that The Riddler is also a vigilante with a just cause (similar to him, but more serious.)

This shows he is highly intelligent, genius level even, that is one way of explaining why he does what he does. Genius and crazy people sometimes look quite alike.

Other than letting the bomb exploding in his face, which was his only dumb moment.

[–] samoanjoes (57032) 3 years ago

I would have liked to see a bit more time of him thinking about the answers. Even if it's quiet for a moment.

[–] fc31 (5476) 3 years ago

That is what ordinary smart people do, not geniuses.

Then again it is a bit unnatural, there should be build up to that, explaining he was gifted in some ways.

They should have inserted a scene where Robin jumps out from the dark:
- "Dash, Batman! I hung up on this riddle."
- "Yes, Robin - we need to activate the remote bat computer switch! .. As you clearly see, Robin, liars do not lie anymore but are still lying around."
- "Holy riddlerat!"

I felt this too. I also just wasn't a fan of how they portrayed the riddler. His plan was dumb. I also hate how parts of the story felt rushed, which is ironic because the movie is needlessly long. The only shining light for me was Colin Farrell. He was awesome.

Some riddles were clever, but others felt just as an excuse to advance the story.
