The Batman (2022)
People’s Choice winner Robert Pattinson (Tenet, The Twilight Saga) stars in IMDb’s Top Movie of 2022, The Batman. When a sadistic serial killer starts murdering key political figures in Gotham, the iconic comic book hero is forced to investigate the city’s hidden corruption – and question his family's involvement.
Nominated for three Oscars, three Critics Choice Awards, four BAFTAs and a Grammy this year already, the box office hit was named Best Comic Book Movie at Rotten Tomatoes’ Golden Tomato Awards, which recognise the best-reviewed films of last year. The Batman is also the most nominated overall going into the Critics Choice Super Awards on 16 March 2023, earning six nominations including Best Superhero Movie. Pattinson, Paul Dano, and Colin Farrell each received nods for Best Actor in a Superhero Movie, while Zoë Kravitz is up for Best Actress in a Superhero Movie. Dano could also take home the award for Best Villain in a Movie.
Also look out for Jeffrey Wright, who was up for Outstanding Supporting Actor at the 2023 Black Reel Awards, and South African stuntman Scott Kirkbride (who’s worked on Fast & Furious 9, Maze Runner: The Death Cure and Tomb Raider), who was one of Pattinson’s stunt doubles.
