The Batman, directed by Matt Reeves, was released in theaters on March 4th, 2022. Starring Robert Pattinson as the dark superhero, the film is a new take on the Batman legacy, going darker than ever before as it explores Batman’s psyche and reputation in Gotham. While the movie has achieved box office success, it has also inspired many viral TikToks surrounding Pattinson’s unique take on the character. Here are a few of our favorites!

 

1. The Eyeliner Aesthetic 

In the film, Pattinson is often seen sporting dark eyeliner that accentuates his moody nature as a vigilante. While the makeup serves to accentuate the character, fans couldn’t help but poke fun at how often he wears it — and whether it gets in the way of the crimefighting. 

 

2. The Sick Beats

The soundtrack that accompanies the superhero as he fights crime is nitty-gritty and, according to viewers, very much iconic. In fact, it is so iconic that the timing of the songs seems awfully suspicious to moviegoers, such as this TikTok user: 

 

3. The Iceberg Lounge

No spoilers here, but in one particular scene, Pattinson is reunited with his old Twilight co-stars in the Iceberg Lounge. While the fighting scene brought back memories of Pattinson’s Twilight days, viewers were similarly mesmerized by the catchy EDM tracks. 

 

4. The Chemistry Between Catwoman And Batman 

Zoe Kravitz and Pattinson had some SERIOUS chemistry onscreen… and, some viewers argue, off-camera too. After watching the press junkets, this user had a strongly worded message for the dynamic duo: 

 

5. Post-Batman Energy 

After the film, fans couldn’t help but channel their inner Batman as they went about their daily routines. If you haven’t watched The Batman yet, be warned — you might be transformed into a moody music aficionado and eyeliner-wearing billionaire.
